5 out of 5 eggsA BEAST of a power supply with tons of power!

This review is from: Rosewill Photon-1050, PHOTON Series 1050W Full Modular Power Supply, 80 PLUS Gold Certified, Single +12V Rail, Intel 4th Gen CPU Ready, SLI & Crossfire Ready

Pros: Rosewill does a great job when is comes to quality components at low costs. Got lucky on this buy because Newegg had it on sale for almost $70 off! The power supply comes with more than enough cabling to operate a slew of devices. The power cord itself is extra durable and not like the "typical" power cords bundled with OEM components. All the connectors are tough and durable as well as attractive. The power supply sports a powerful internal fan that effectively cools my components while remaining virtually silent.

Cons: The connectors at times, may be especially difficult to plug in so use extra care when installing. Bottom-mounted power supplies in newer cases causes problems because all of the connectors have to be inverted. The case I purchased for this build is designed with the power supply mounted on the bottom of the case. I had to turn the 20 pin power connector around to get it to plug in. Maybe future models could take this small issue into consideration and include additional adapters for such instances.

Other Thoughts: I highly recommend this product.

1 out of 5 eggs5 Months and it dead

This review is from: Rosewill Photon-1050, PHOTON Series 1050W Full Modular Power Supply, 80 PLUS Gold Certified, Single +12V Rail, Intel 4th Gen CPU Ready, SLI & Crossfire Ready

Pros: Worked Great for 5 months

Cons: Died after the great 5 months

Other Thoughts: Didn't take any other hardware with it and passed away very quietly without any fireworks

5 out of 5 eggsEverything Included and Easy install!

This review is from: Rosewill Photon-1050, PHOTON Series 1050W Full Modular Power Supply, 80 PLUS Gold Certified, Single +12V Rail, Intel 4th Gen CPU Ready, SLI & Crossfire Ready

Pros: My first build and it went great! I like the variety of cables and multiple areas to plug them in. My Corsair cooler hoses blocked a few places, but there were others to use which really made power cable management clean and easy! A week After the build, I added an older FireWire card which called for a power cable. So I installed it accordingly. Upon boot up, the CPU lit up and then shut down?......I had to move some PCI Express cards to make room for this old FireWire so I was concerned. Did I fry my board. Long story short (which is too late for that) I believe the 1050 circuit breaker shut down power and saved my but! I had to unplug and rep lug to get power. I removed the power cable to the FireWire board and all was well!

Cons: None! And I got a $30 rebate to boot! No pun intended!

Other Thoughts: I have an Asus X99 board, 32 gigs Ram, 1TB SSD drive, 970 4 gig video card, WD Black 5TB drive, Asus AC1900 wireless card, dual 4K monitors, blue ray burner. Windows 10 Pro, FireWire card to down load old videos from an old video camera. Newegg made this a fast and affordable build! All parts arrived in great condition and super fast! Best price too!

1 out of 5 eggsBIG FAIL

This review is from: Rosewill Photon-1050, PHOTON Series 1050W Full Modular Power Supply, 80 PLUS Gold Certified, Single +12V Rail, Intel 4th Gen CPU Ready, SLI & Crossfire Ready

Pros: Initially though I had a decent PSU...

Cons: Burned out as soon as I plugged in my second R9 290...and damaged my motherboard + video card!

Other Thoughts: TOTAL GARBAGE: If you are planning on running 2 AMD series GPU's stay away from this PSU! My whole system pulls like 790w under full load (that's with the 2 R9 290's) this PSU should have been MORE than enough power if the rating of 1050w was accurate! 1050w (TOTAL LIE)!

This review is from: Rosewill Photon-1050, PHOTON Series 1050W Full Modular Power Supply, 80 PLUS Gold Certified, Single +12V Rail, Intel 4th Gen CPU Ready, SLI & Crossfire Ready

Pros: No.... Just no...

Cons: 4 months after using this PSU it fried. Got a RMA which went fine. Installed the new one and looks like the old one took out my MOBO at least. Can't test the CPU until I have the MOBO back. Just go with EVGA.

Other Thoughts: Just awful

This review is from: Rosewill Photon-1050, PHOTON Series 1050W Full Modular Power Supply, 80 PLUS Gold Certified, Single +12V Rail, Intel 4th Gen CPU Ready, SLI & Crossfire Ready

Pros: looks nice...

Cons: First one started giving low voltage on the 3.3 volt line...then died. Second one (guarantee replacement) lasted only 2 months...fluctuations on CPU voltage...Motherboard shuts down when this happens...at least it didn't fry anything...

3 out of 5 eggsStarting to wonder about Rosewill...

This review is from: Rosewill Photon-1050, PHOTON Series 1050W Full Modular Power Supply, 80 PLUS Gold Certified, Single +12V Rail, Intel 4th Gen CPU Ready, SLI & Crossfire Ready

Pros: Great, modular design - use only the cables you need.

Cons: Dead - put everything together, flipped on the switch, saw the green light on the motherboard, pressed the power button,, the lamp in the room dimmed for a 10th of a second and that was it. Computer didn't turn on.
Didn't know if it was the MB, CPU or power supply - grrr!

Watched youtube vids about the X99 MB I purchased they had a Rosewill PS that was DEAD in the video!!

Swapped in the PS from my existing system (another Rosewill, my first), MB powered up fine!

Wasted time, wasted effort and worry, wasted money - now I have to RMA and get a replacement.
Doubt I'll buy Rosewill again after this.

Other Thoughts: The only reason I gave 3-stars instead of 1 is the fact that the Rosewill power supply in my other system has worked great for over 6-years now. The fan is dying making loud noises, but considering the length of service, I can't complain.

Trusted Rosewill for my 2nd power supply, but they let me down - this is the first every RMA I've needed fro Newegg. Thanks Rosewill...
