1050W Power Supplies

↪ Notes: Group regulated; effective capacity is 10% lower than advertised based on +12V current rating

↪ Notes: Semi-digital

↪ Notes: Decent electrical performance but OTP is either not present or set too high (>200°C ) which is useless. See testing here. 2 year warranty.

↪ Notes: Fundamentally a Polaris ATX 3.0 refresh. Load regulation is somewhat subpar on the 1050W model.

↪ Notes: Has purple heatsinks for glam. Loose load regulation on 5VSB rail with middling 12V excursion response.

↪ Notes: Not to be confused with the GX II Gold.

↪ Notes: Ripple suppression, while within the limits for tier A, isn't as good as other units in its class. The OCP trip points need to be reduced on all rails.

↪ Notes: ATX 3.0 compliant; uses dual 8-pin to 12VHPWR.

↪ Notes: Overall performance is not that great despite a capable platform. Platform just needs to be tuned better.

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

↪ Notes: Double ball bearing fan.

↪ Notes: OTP either not present or set too high per Aris' review. Out-of-spec 3.3V transient response (7%).

↪ Notes: Protections need serious tuning; abundant amount of minute issues

↪ Notes: Excellent performance and noise profile. OPP and OCP on the minor rails need tuning. They do work but are set way higher than necessary.

↪ Notes: Claims OTP but not tested in Aris' review, B+ until further notice.

↪ Notes: Doesn't quite exhibit the same behavior in such torture testing as the 1200W model.

↪ Notes: Quite loud under full load, ~39dbA

↪ Notes:

↪ Notes: Be wary of 2024 OEM/Platform change in the N.A. market!

↪ Notes: OTP doesn't work

↪ Notes: Limited special edition model for 25th anniversary, no indication of any internal changes
