CORSAIR HXi Series HX1200i 1200W 80 PLUS PLATINUM Haswell Ready Full Modular ATX12V & EPS12V SLI and Crossfire Ready Power Supply with C-Link Monitoring and Control

Pros: - Silent - Mega power - Nice packaging includes bag for spare cables

Cons: - Not so far

Overall Review: Wanted not to worry about whether 1000W was enough for SLI and lots of RAM and six HDD. Also wanted very quiet system. This PS did the trick very nicely. The fan does work, but practically never kicks on in day-to-day use. Nits: I can't see how the CorsairLink software useful for the power supply. Since my my Mobo has only 2 USB 2 headers I decided not to waste one on the PS. I also have a Corsair H110 cooling system and there the CorsairLink is very useful. The modular cables are plastic coated ribbon cables. This can make them both easier and harder to route -- I'm uncomfortable crimping the cables. I would prefer a more robust connection between the cables and the PS, as opposed to the plastic headers, particularly for the smaller power cables. Corsair should consider putting a tamper seal on their packaging so one can be sure the product is factory new.

Pros: Super premium feel, fully modular flat black ribbon cable. Silent, something like 600w before the fan spins turns on, and even with an 800-1000w load its only like 600 rpm! The thing is color matched internally... Like the outside is black with white and blue letters, and the inside, they made it all black, except even matched the white of the glue they use to the white on the label! There are even a few blue capacitors that match the HX lettering color... The inside components are custom Corsair labeled boxes, so even those look nice! Like who looks inside of a power supply and cares about color?!? Clearly they were OCD and put an insane amount of thought and care into the quality, feel, and look of this premium product. Features: Power/Amps/Voltage on every single 3.3,5,and 12v rail is shown on software and made into nice looking graphs. You can even see the efficiency it has at that moment... This would be a crypto miners dream! You can see exactly how much power you have left to spare. Or if you're like me and love overclocking, you can see you still have massive amount to play with, and its just cool data and gizmos. Looks to match my wall meter pretty accurate (though this thing might even be more accurate). Just fantastic software. Efficient: 92% efficiency reported at 800w, and still above 90% just past 1000w. Barely any warmth comes from the thing, and the fan barely spins 600 rpm, so its not like its pushing much air. My last PSU was a hair dryer by comparison, and also the loudest thing in my build, not this one! This thing is unbelievable...

Cons: Fan test button is super wobbly and shockingly cheap for everything else being so perfect and premium

Overall Review: Why is this worth every penny? I may ride a bike that costs less than a sandwich at McDonald's, but I learned the hard way $250 is cheap, a bargain! My last PSU knocked out a $250 SSD (so at least out $250, and a dead PSU). That alone would make this a FREE power supply as long as it doesn't blow anything up. This thing should last me a really long time. It even has a 10 year warranty, so if it doesn't, I'll be covered. This is just a fantastic well made product, super happy with my purchase, even if it does cost half my car, its well worth it!

Pros: - Lots of power - Power is, according to spec, high quality - Quiet

Cons: Fairly large- I would advise measuring the available space prior to purchase if you have a small case.

Pros: Lots of power Icue gives you the options of changing from single to multi rail operations. Cables are flat which is great for cable routing.

Cons: I had 1 total shutdown out of the blue while in idle. From what I have read from other people this usually winds up being a huge issue with shutdowns on a regular basis until they RMA the unit. I switched from multi rails to single in ICUE and haven't had another shutdown yet.

Overall Review: I hope the power supply holds up. There are 2 cables that plug into this power supply. The first is USB which is for ICUE but the second cable I have no idea about and the website doesn't offer much in the way of an explanation.

Pros: Tons of power delivered efficiently and quietly. Modular cable options make building a dream come true.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: I have had this PSU for a year now and I have purchased at least 30 of them in the past. This is the best by far!

Pros: -Tons of Power -Great packaging (You feel like your getting a premium product) -Quiet -Fully modular -Corsair Link ability to see what's going on. -Platinum rated

Cons: -None that I can think other then the cost.

Overall Review: I had a system with a older 700 Watt PSU that was black screening running a single 1080 TI. This PSU solved all of my issues. It has been running great. The PSU is ultimately for my new build I'm waiting for 8700K to come in but this solved my issues in the meantime.

Pros: This PSU Handles 3 GTX 980 SLI set up flawlessly Comes with many cables to satisfy the biggest Monster Rigs

Cons: NONE

Pros: cables are functional i would like them to be fancier

Cons: cables need to be fancier

Overall Review: puts electricity in to the things that need electricity
