2026 Power Supplies

↪ Notes: The OCP trggering point for the 5VSB line allows for extremely excessive ripple.

↪ 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: Excellent electrical performance, component quality, and noise profile. 12V-2x6 connector has thermistors to act as an "OTP", optional "5V Boost."

↪ Notes: The 5VSB OCP triggering point allows for excessive ripple. Ripple exceeds requirements for tier A under crossload, 100% load, and 110% overload.

↪ Notes: Ball bearing fan, 8 year warranty. Cybenetics Gold under 120VAC and Platinum under 230VAC.

↪ Notes: Double-sourced between FSP and HEC. FSP provides the 1200W variant for the US market and HEC supplies it for the European market. Good noise profile and electrical performance. First be quiet! PSU with semi-passive operation.

↪ Notes: 85C bulk cap, rifle bearing fan. Good noise profile. The OCP triggering points on the minor rails are set much higher than necessary.

↪ Notes: Technically qualifies for tier A by electrical performance alone, but the fan limits it to tier B+.

↪ 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: The OCP and OPP triggering points are set too high on all rails, especially 5VSB, where it allows for extremely excessive ripple. Good noise profile.

↪ Notes: Interleaved bridgeless PFC, semi-digital.

↪ Notes: The OCP triggering points need to be reduced substantially on the minor rails, especially 5VSB, where it allows for ripple to get out of control. Some components are of questionable quality. The fan is falsely advertised as FDB, but actually uses a rifle bearing.

↪ Notes: The OCP triggering points should be reduced on all rails, especially the minor rails. Good component quality.

↪ Notes: Ripple is too high for tier A. Otherwise, the unit performs well. The OCP triggering points should be reduced on all rails. Good component quality.
