2021 Power Supplies

↪ Notes: Though a sleeve bearing fan is used, 1st Player backs it up with a 7-year warranty.

↪ Notes: 1000W model might be DC-DC, unable to confirm without a proper teardown

↪ Notes: 1000W model might be DC-DC, unable to confirm without a proper teardown

↪ Notes: 2 year warranty; No OTP claimed, but platform is otherwise reasonably capable.

↪ Notes: 2 year warranty; platform is otherwise reasonably capable.

↪ 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: 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: Same internals as the Plus Platinum without the screen, ARGB fan, or digital control.

↪ Notes: Built-in screen, ARGB fan, and digital fan control and monitoring via MasterPlus software.

↪ Notes: 160mm length, Sunon Magnetic Levitation (Maglev) bearing fan.

↪ Notes: 180mm length, Sunon Magnetic Levitation (Maglev) bearing fan.

↪ Notes: Gray label. Custom Corsair rifle bearing fan.

↪ Notes: Triangular fan grille perforations. Hong Hua rifle bearing fan. Performance is assumed to be the same as 2019 version.

↪ Notes: Platform is certified for Gold, might have only hit Bronze due to modular interface

↪ Notes: Protections are found to be working in GPW based units in similar or identical configurations.

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

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

↪ Notes: Cost-down Ion Platinum.

↪ Notes: The base platform of the EVGA G7, which is well reviewed with protections working in similar configurations.

↪ Notes: Malfunctioning OCP and OPP on +12V line (voltage out of spec), poor transient response on minor rails, failed to meet 80+ Gold rating.

↪ Notes: Not suggested for use under 120VAC if you live in an area with frequent brownouts (see note under input range.)

↪ Notes: Sleeve bearing fan.

↪ Notes: PPFC, extremely poor build quality and component quality; e-waste.

↪ Notes: No external visual difference, PCB underwent slight revision, poor 3.3v transient response.

↪ Notes: OTP is claimed but has been hit-or-miss on NO-810 units and not present on the P125. Tier is based on other NO-810 units until tested.

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

↪ Notes: Extremely low 12V line output relative to total capacity. The "1000W" model has only 750W available to the +12V line.

↪ Notes: Extremely low 12V line output relative to total capacity. The "1000W" model has only 750W available to the +12V line.

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

↪ Notes: Two samples no longer operated after protections testing per LTT Labs, which is not ideal, but all protections did function.
