CORSAIR - RMx Series 1000W ATX12V 2.4/EPS12V 2.92 80 Plus Gold Modular Power Supply - Black

Easy installation, easy setup module cables, quiet, and a great buy. Used in my latest build and no problems...

I home build most of my computers, and did an exensive amount of research on power supplys to understand where I could get the best performance/value ratio, while ensuring I had room to grow in my build. I have an Intel I7-8700k CPU running on an ASUS Maximus X Code motherboard, with an NVidia RTX 2070 Super GPU, along with a slew of drives and LEDs throughout. Decent power consumption, but nothing that would make this PSU blink twice. I have the benefit of an available 1000 watts, with the assurance of 80 plus gold performance. The complete modularity is huge, and from all I could study this particular model made top 5 of most all lists I encountered. It is my second Corsair PSU (along with my Corsair RAM, keyboard and AIO CPU cooling unit, I love what Corsair builds and I've never had issues with anything that has borne their name or logo (knock on wood).

I love my new build. This PSU has enough power to supply overclocking CPU and GPU. However, I noticed there was noisy coil whine when PSU works in heavy load. I searched online and it seems I was the person with bad luck got a noisy PSU. Corsair said coil whine will not affect longevity and performance of PSU. So I wouldn't send this back. I don't want hard time again on cable management lol.

Definitely overkill for my build, but I wanted something where I could stay in the the area of efficiency where the fan doesn't do much if it turns on at all. As much as we try to stay on top of it, this house is very dusty and the idea was to have this PSU last through a few iterations of upgrades.

As with most Corsair products I've purchased, this power supply feels well-made. I'm unlikely to have much use for the cheap draw-string bag it came in, but the velcro flap pouch for the modular cables seems like a good way to keep them together if you're not immediately using all of them: because YOU MUST NOT INTERCHANGE MODULAR CABLES. Apparently, there is not a "standard" pinout for these: so do not assume that cables from a different modular supply will work, or you might end up replacing hard drives or even your mainboard. (I'd seen the custom kits for people who want to add color by swapping out their cables for fancy ones, and mistakenly thought that meant that I could avoid wrecking my neat cable management job. 16TB of cooked drives, a dead burner, and one frotzed GIGABYTE board later, it is NOT a mistake I'll make again.)

You are getting 1000watts and the psu is completely modular what more could u ask for.. they even include a bag to tidy up ur unused cables.. highly recommend!

My only complaint was that the box was missing the screws to use for the PSU, but I had spares. Also the manufacturer offered to send me some when I contacted them about it.

Corsair always makes fantastic products and this was no different. Extremely glad I could find one during the PSU shortage as well. 5 stars as always!
