Everyone knows Corsair for their high quality ram modules however recently their power supply units have been getting a lot of attention. The initial units were a great success and some of them survived for many months without any revision...
The Corsair HX1000W unit impressed us mostly with its exceptional quality and standard-setting electrical performance. The voltage regulation circuit is amazing and the efficiency is high across the entire power range, while the quality of the componen...
Simply put; nothing. This is the first time we cannot find anything negative to say about a power supply. There weren’t any faults or even something which we could consider being merely above average. It is without doubt one of the finest power supp...
We can confidently recommend this unit to anyone who needs a quality power supply with a high power output. Not only is the quality and electrical performance setting new standards, the price of this unit is surprisingly very competitive as well. In sh...

Success! And success without any wanky UV reactive, clear perspexed, militaristic stylised bling whatsoever! Hooray! And when you compare its $300-odd dollar price tag to the more expensive 1500 watt failures in this test, there’s even more reason t...
Does its job in serious style...

A 1000W computer power supply is now available from most of the major power supply manufacturers. Do we really need them? Six months ago I would have probably said no but with the advent of the GTX 280 and 4870X2 in dual and triple configurations, and...

Environmental Factors: A pretty heavy power supply so lost points for shipping and fuel usage, but to be fair, until technology moves on a peg or two, there isnt a lot Corsair can do to change the situation. Points lost once again for the use of foam...

The inexorable rise in the parallel processing power of modern GPUs has led to increasing power-draw thats not wholly mitigated by consistent moves to smaller manufacturing processes. For example, the twin-GPU GeForce 9800 GX2 and Radeon HD 3870 X2...

Improvements in power-supply units (PSUs) over the last few years have translated to better efficiency, enhanced ripple suppression, a lack of noise at low loads, voltage regulation that doesn't buckle under extreme load, and modular cabling on the more p...

We believe it to be reasonable to spend at least 10 per cent of the total PC base unit budget on a PSU. A high-quality model will offer years of reliable performance that should span multiple builds.In that context the Corsair HX 1000, a Platinum-rate...

Video Review: The Corsair HX line of power supplies are currently available in three wattages; 520, 620 & 1000. I'll be reviewing the Corsair HX1000W Power Supply which has more than enough power, even for hardcore computer systems. The approximate maximum peek output of the 3.3/5v rail is 250 watts and the 12vrail is 960 watts. The +3.3V & +5V rails are both 30A. There are two +12V rails and they are both 40A each with a combined power of 80A. They include a load controlled quiet 140mm fan. So the m...

The Corsair CMPSU-1000HX is undoubtedly a high-quality product. However, it has a number of stronger opponents that are superior in one or another parameter. On the downside of this model are its very large dimensions...

The Corsair HX1000W power supply surely is a very capable PSU for any system that you could think up. It was easily able to handle a 4870X2 and Q6600 with ease. That surely is one of the most demanding system builds that you can do at this point in ti...

The HX1000W works very efficiently and it's damn cheap. End of story, right? Well, yes and no. At 1,000W there's still some that would pay more for hand fondled unit with a stamped sheet saying it works, and to be honest, at this level service matters...

Corsair is late to the party with the HX1000, and for a long time I've been hearing that they were waiting until their very exacting standards had been met before releasing such a creature. Well, I don't know about Corsair's standards, but they sure ha...
