Tier B Power Supplies

↪ Notes: Despite markings on the DC-DC daughterboard indicating CWT GPU, internal shots confirm CWT GPX.

↪ Notes: Mid quality fan; Same Martech "FDB" fan on the MSI A-GL series.

↪ Notes: Updated N series

↪ Notes: Updated R series

↪ Notes: Due to the platform's limitations, ripple gets fairly high under heavy load but remains within 100mV. OCP is set high on the minor rails.

↪ Notes: Mediocre transient response and low quality caps.

↪ Notes: Custom be quiet! rifle bearing fan.

↪ Notes: A few samples of the base platform died when subjected to sub-90VAC stress tests per JonnyGuru. Proceed with caution under 120VAC, especially in areas prone to brownouts.

↪ Notes: Platform is essentially a modified MWE Bronze V3.

↪ Notes: Basically G1208 updated to ATX 3.1

↪ Notes: Modified MWE Bronze V3, same as G Gold V2.

↪ Notes: Modified MWE Bronze V3, same as G Gold V2.

↪ Notes: Black "CX" lettering on gray label; Double-sourced between GW & CWT; technically qualified for 80+ Silver but badged as Bronze.

↪ Notes: Black "CX" lettering on gray label; Double-sourced between GW & CWT; technically qualified for 80+ Silver but badged as Bronze.

↪ Notes: Technically 80+ Silver without RGB on

↪ Notes: Gray label; toggleable per-cable OCP.

↪ Notes: Black label; China only

↪ Notes: The OCP triggering points are set too high on the minor rails, 5VSB regulation exceeds 5% at 5.37%, filtering capacitors are of questionable quality.

↪ Notes: One review had 12V line voltage deviating slightly more than the limit in the 160% ATX 3.1 excursion test. OCP, OPP, and OVP are set too high on all rails.

↪ Notes: >50mV ripple suppression on 12V.

↪ Notes: Can come in white variants. Mediocre fan, no SCP on -12V rail, which isn't used in modern PCs. Avoid if using very old hardware.

↪ Notes: Transient response doesn't quite make it A tier, no direct protections testing.

↪ Notes: Limited testing; rating could be higher once additional testing exists.

↪ Notes: Decent overall performance despite being ACRF on the primary side, double ball bearing fan.

↪ Notes: Double ball bearing fan and good build quality, but protections need tuning. Low overall performance.

↪ Notes: See notes under Series name for how to identify each version.

↪ Notes: Decent overall performance despite being ACRF on the primary side, FDB fan instead of DBB as in the lower wattage GM models.

↪ Notes: PWR_OK signal testing failed; mediocre load regulation and transient response on the minor rails.

↪ Notes: Only included on the list because Enermax is still selling this unit on their Refurbished store and on Jawa as of 2025. Listed as "G-MA-B."

↪ Notes: Doesn't see the same problem as the 850W variant because of its lower capacity.

↪ Notes: Solid electrical performance, let down by poorly tuned protections, mediocre transient response, and a low quality fan.

↪ Notes: 5 year warranty in the United States. Beware of potentially reduced warranty duration in other regions.

↪ Notes: Globe Fan FDB fan. Assumed to be quite noisy (>48dBA) based on other units on the same platform. OPP is set way higher than necessary.

↪ Notes: Very high ripple on the 12V rail for a unit of this caliber.

↪ Notes: The OCP and OPP triggering points, while functional, are set way higher than necessary on all rails.
