    Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) I recently picked up the Corsair RM1000x Power Supply from Best Buy, and I can't help but share my excitement about it. This box of wonders has truly transformed my PC experience, earning it a well-deserved 5-star rating. Sturdy Build That Inspires Confidence: The first thing you'll notice is the solid feel of this power supply. It's like the tank of power supplies, reassuringly sturdy. The quality of the materials used screams durability, and I'm convinced it's built to last. Whisper-Quiet Operation: No more humming or buzzing sounds! The fan in this power supply operates with the finesse of a ninja. Even during intense gaming or demanding tasks, it keeps things whisper-quiet. Finally, a power supply that won't compete with my music or game soundtrack. Reliable Power Flow: My PC has found its power soulmate. The Corsair RM1000x PSU delivers a constant, reliable flow of power. Say goodbye to those annoying glitches or sudden shutdowns. It handles everything I throw at it with ease, making me wonder how I survived without it. Cable Management Made Easy: Let's talk about the cable situation. The modular design is a lifesaver. It's like having a personal cable butler – only use what you need, and keep the rest out of sight. My PC looks sleeker than ever, and I didn't need an engineering degree to set it up. Connectors for Days: Whether you're a gaming enthusiast or a productivity pro, this power supply has your back. The variety of connectors included is like having a universal adapter for your PC components. It's the Swiss Army knife of power supplies. In a nutshell, the Corsair RM1000x Power Supply is a game-changer. It doesn't just power up my PC; it elevates the entire experience. If you're on the hunt for a reliable, quiet, and all-around awesome power supply, look no further. Trust me, your PC will thank you for it! I can't recommend the corsair PSU enough – it's a solid 5-star performer. Thank you Best Buy!

    Amazing power supply, it is long though (180mm)

    Best power supply on the market . It is worth every penny because all your other components are attached to it. Paying a little extra for the peace of mind of knowing your psu won’t fry your cpu, motherboard, ram, storage, or gpu is worth the price alone. Yet this power supply Is still great value if you ignore those facts. It is 80 plus gold certified for efficiency and that has been confirmed through Aris at Hardware Busters. He has his own rating system that also gives it cybenetics gold and cybenetics A- for noise which means 25-30 dbA This PSU has all the ports you could ever ask for. It has 8 ports that can accept CPU/PCIE cables. So you can run up to 7 PCIE cables if you also are powering a cpu at the same time. Thats 14 PCIE 6+2 8-Pin connectors as the cords have the extra pigtail connector. It also comes with 3 (three!!!!) 8-pin EPS cables to power your CPU. These are 4+4 design so you can break them in half if you have a motherboard that needs a 4 pin ( some motherboards will have 1 8 pin and 1 4 pin for extra power for example.) Considering 1 8-pin EPS cable can handle over 300 watts its complete overkill, but still nice to have. Regarding included cables; you get 3 8-pin EPS connectors and 3 6+2 PCIE power cables that all have an extra 6+2 connected via pigtails giving you 6+2 connectors on each cable. If you are confused a 6+2 PCIE cable is just an 8 pin cable that can be separated into two sections one being 2 and one being 6. This allows you to break away the 2 part of the cable if you need a 6 pin power connector. You also get a lot of sata cables, a couple moles for compatibility reasons, and a single floppy adapter if you still are powering those. You will have extra modular ports even if you use all the cables. But this allows you to buy more in the future if you want to start a render farm, do AI deep learning, or even cryptocurrency mining, you can power a lot of graphics cards with this device. Lastly the mag lev fan is another big upgrade for the 2021 model. This all but ensures your fan will last the length of the generous 10 year warranty Corsair offers for this unit. I have never even heard it make a noise, electrical nor fan noise. In conclusion, if you see the price and are hesitant just consider this, you are not going to have to upgrade your power supply anytime soon if the next generation of graphics cards are even more power hungry (leaks show they use even more power than ampere.) Also, with the maglev fan and 10 year warranty, this power supply might last you 15 to 20 years of use and be the last power supply you ever have to buy. Lastly because its 1000 watts you are usually going to be operating at peak efficiency. This is because power supplies get their best efficiency at around 50% of their total rated capacity. So this unit will be most efficient at around 500 watts. Because its built for 1000 watts, drawing 600 watts 24/7 wont degrade this PSU like it would a unit designed for 650 watts. The headroom is good for longevity, silence, and efficiency. Just beware of the size. Its 180mm long. The standard ATX spec says a length of 160mm is standard. And many manufactures actually have models shorter than that. EVGA; for example, has many models that are still in the 750-850 watt range, but are 140-150mm in length. But longer length also means bigger fan and better cooling/less noise. Just buy this if you want a power supply you can use for any build and never have to worry about it failing or if it will last you forever. It will.

    I wasn't very aware that my computer was under powered until I installed this beauty. My system started running way better. I would recommend this over some of the smaller models that are closer to the 1,000 watts because it's not much more expensive.

    Good power supply. Corsair makes good power supplies and while this isn’t one of their really good ones it does get the job done. I’m currently running a 3080ti, 2080ti, 2060, 1660super, 1080, and x79 i7-3930k on a rampage iv extreme motherboard. All on this one psu.

    Certainly! Let's consider a generic Corsair PSU review: The Corsair power supply units have consistently proven themselves as reliable and efficient components for PC builders. I'll discuss some general qualities and features that are often found in Corsair PSUs. 1. **Build Quality:** Corsair PSUs are known for their solid construction. They typically use high-quality materials that ensure durability and longevity. This is crucial for a component that powers your entire system. 2. **Efficiency:** Many Corsair PSUs are 80 PLUS certified, which means they are highly efficient at converting AC power into DC power for your PC. This not only reduces energy waste but also helps keep your system running cooler. 3. **Modular Cabling:** Corsair often offers modular PSUs, which means you can connect only the cables you need, reducing cable clutter inside your case. This is great for cable management and airflow. 4. **Quiet Operation:** Corsair pays attention to noise levels in their PSU designs. You'll often find quiet fans and smart fan control systems to keep noise to a minimum, especially during low-load situations. 5. **Warranty:** Corsair typically offers a solid warranty on their power supplies, providing peace of mind for your investment. 6. **Variety of Wattage:** Corsair usually offers a range of wattage options, ensuring you can find a PSU suitable for your specific needs, whether you're building a basic system or a high-end gaming rig. 7. **Safety Features:** Corsair PSUs include various safety features like over-voltage protection, over-current protection, and short-circuit protection to safeguard your components. Remember, the specific Corsair PSU model you choose will have its unique features and specifications, so it's essential to read reviews and check the model's details to ensure it aligns with your system's requirements. Overall, Corsair power supplies have a solid reputation for reliability and performance, making them a popular choice among PC builders.

    Excellent PSU. Expected nothing less from Corsair. Running a Ryzen 7 5800x w/ RTX 3080 Aorus Xtreme and intend to overclock in the future. One critique about these PSUs is the larger size compared to other ATX PSUs. Other than that it is quiet, does the job, and modularity is always a plus. As other reviewers have stated the PCIe cables are chunky so I ended up using extensions to clean up the look.

    Most of my PSUs are Corsair RMx series. They are decent, quiet, and fairly priced. I do not like the PCIE cables, because they are bulky, but other than that it works well.
