80 PLUS Platinum
It has the 80 PLUS Platinum certification, which means it offers clean power that reaches 92% of its total efficiency.
The highly efficient operation of the HXi series leads to lower energy consumption and lower operating costs. Since it produces less heat, the fan does not need to work as hard and you will enjoy nearly silent operation.
Protection Levels
Overvoltage protection, undervoltage protection, short-circuit protection, overpower protection, and overtemperature protection provide maximum safety to the system's critical components.
Zero RPM fan mode
The superior energy efficiency of the HXi series allows the fan to remain off at low to medium loads for nearly silent operation. And when you push it hard, the thermally controlled fan adjusts its speed to provide optimal cooling with minimal noise.
Full Modular Cabling
The Full Modular design means that all cables are detachable, allowing the user to use only the cables needed for a cleaner look with better airflow. The connection indicators make installation quick and simple.

I bought it in 2015 for a first-generation i7. In July 2020, I completely changed my PC and the only part I kept is the power supply. Six years later, I can say that it is still an excellent product today. It has 4 8-pin CPU power connectors, 6 8-pin PCI Express power connectors, and 6 power connectors for drives (SATA - molex). It has a USB connection to the computer for comprehensive information and management. The fan has simply never turned on (fortunately, it has a test button so you know it hasn't broken).
Composition: Z490 Aorus Master, i7 10700k, GTX1660Ti OC, Corsair H115i liquid cooling, 6 140mm fans, and 11 x HDD Western Digital Red!
Very high quality and efficient power supply.
I have been using it for several months without any problems.
Apart from the quality of the components it is made of and the ease of cable management,
the ability to see in real time the consumption it makes, is a very useful tool.
Exceptional power supply from all sides. It powers an 8700K at 5Ghz and a Titan Xp with dual liquid cooling, 3 SSDs, 2 HDDs, Soundblaster AE5, Thermaltake Fan Controller & 9 140mm fans with ease. The fact that one can monitor temperatures and performance of the power supply through iCue is another unique advantage! Finally, the 10-year warranty speaks for itself about Corsair's confidence in its product.
No matter what you say about Corsair power supplies, it's a little bit. I was going for the 850-watt one but due to lack of availability, I went for the 1000-watt one. It's a little bit overkill, although with an i9-9900K and a 2080ti, you can't really call them little. However, its fan must have never worked. The case's dust filter has no trace of dust after 5 months of use. No noise, and most importantly, no coil whine.
Awesome power supply and great program for settings etc. The fan won't spin unless it reaches 35 degrees (Difficult for the power supply to heat up) or if the consumption is greater than 400W. If you want it to spin at any speed you want, you can adjust it from the power supply's program as long as it is connected to the motherboard via the included cable.
Above all, quiet, I have never heard it and I do not know if the fan has ever worked. Operating temperature 35-40 after playing. Several connections and properly designed cables.
One of the best PSUs available on the market for heavy-duty use and 24/7 operation. Additionally, it is one of the few power supplies that can be monitored and customized in real-time from the desktop (multi-mono rail). It is completely silent (the fan does not spin) during standard use, only when I push the 2950X with two EVGA RTX 2080ti on the MSI MEG X399 Creation. Lastly, it comes with a 10-year warranty.
I have the 850i but it doesn't play a big role, after 1 year it doesn't give me any problems, the fan never works because it never reached its limits, I tried it because I had few cables, this has everything I need
Bought in 2016, part of an expensive system. In 2017, it started smoking for the first time, but luckily I managed to unplug it before it destroyed the system. I contacted Corsair and within 2 weeks they sent me a replacement at their own expense, which was fortunate. And here we are, 1 year later, and boom... the second one goes out as well... especially during this time when I will be without a computer for longer due to the holidays. So stay away from this specific product and I might even say stay away from Corsair in general.
It is really very powerful! And only when you open its package, you immediately understand its quality.
I have had it for about a month, and due to the fact that it does not easily raise the temperature, I have hardly ever heard its fan, and when it is operating, it is completely silent. Very good efficiency and together with the Corsair application, it is a very good choice even compared to more expensive ones!
Visually, it is beautiful according to my standards. Highly recommended! 10/10
Basically, 1200W is not for everyone, this power supply is intended for those who have two or more cards and want to overclock their processor. 1200W is too much for a quad-core processor and a graphics card. There is no need to spend so much money.
I have had this power supply for two years now, with two GTX980Ti and the 5960X at 4.1GHz with synchronized OC on all cores. The system draws 850W, which covers my needs. It has not given me any problems all this time.
The main advantage is that all the cables are detachable, so you can use as many cables as you need without having extras that you have to squeeze into a corner.
One important issue that requires attention is that the +4 PCIe and +2 PCIe EPS cables for additional power to the processor are close together, and in large cases like the CaseLabs Magnum SMA8 that I have or the Be Quiet Dark Base Pro 900, they are close (and generally in Full Tower or Ultra type cases). They reach somehow, but they cannot pass behind the motherboard, only above it diagonally, which is not aesthetically pleasing.
Very good power supply as it is silent, has nice cable management, you can connect many things as it has multiple cable ports and has low power consumption.
Do not buy it from the moment I bought it, it has problems every time it shuts down, without load, without overclocking, it is not justified for its money, keep away from these things to have your health.
7/8/2018 It turned out that Corsair Link was to blame, I uninstalled it, removed it from the USB port, and so far everything is fine.
Very good and reliable. In my case, the fan doesn't even spin with a load of about 650-700Watt constantly.
I bought it to power 2x GTX 1080Ti 11G and soon a third.
Positive:
- Its construction is so good that the temperature never rises. I have never seen the fan open once.
- Its performance is amazing! At a few Watts (100-150), the lowest I have seen it reach (from its program) is 86-87%, while at a load above 300 Watts, it is at 93%.
- It connects internally via USB to monitor various information such as performance %, consumption, powered devices, etc.
- It comes in a bag with all the cables you will need.
- It has many more cables than you will need, and they are all detachable. You can set up 3 PCs with the cables it has inside.
- It has all the connectors (e.g. 6+2 pin, 4+4 pin) you will need, and plenty of each.
- IT HAS A 10-YEAR WARRANTY.
Negative:
- There really is no negative aspect to this power supply. If you think the price is high, you probably don't know its capabilities.
In conclusion:
- For those who want to connect 2 or more graphics cards in Crossfire-X or SLI, this is the ideal power supply.
- For those who only want one graphics card, I would recommend the same at 750W.
It is very good. I have had it for 2 months and I use it in a system that is quite demanding. For example: asus crosshair v formula-z motherboard, gigabyte gtx 970 graphics card, amd fx-9590 4.7ghz 8-core cpu, coolermaster rl-n24m-24pk-r1 nepton 240mm water cooler, corsair cmz8gx3m2b1600c9g vengeance green 8gb (4x4gb) ddr3 1600mhz dual channel ram, 4 western digital wd10ezrx caviar green 1tb hard drives, kingston sv300s3b7a/120g 120gb ssdnow v300 sata3 2.5 ssd, creative sound blaster z retail sound card, I have done a review on youtube mastromania channel
I have been here for 2 months without any problems.
It operates silently and you can adjust the fan speed very quickly. It is very good and has an automatic temperature drop feature
I bought it on 03-04-2016 and three months later on 16-07-2016.
With minimal use.
It sparked and started smoking.
Luckily, I was next to it and unplugged it before it could catch fire.
Now let's see with the warranty.
Two weeks of waiting and they inform me that the power supply is not the problem and they sent it back to me the same.
And now I have to contact Corsair if I find my right.
Today, 14/7/2021, I return to complete the evaluation after 5 years. Eventually, it was replaced by Corsair. Maybe the first one had a problem. With the second one, I had no issues at all. I have changed the system and the only thing I kept is the power supply. I can say it's worth it. Surely, there are other options at this price.
I got it in May, it broke and left me in the cold of the bathroom in July, otherwise it's a 200+ euro power supply...supposedly I paid so much for reliability...what can I say, I will do an RMA but it's a negative for me.
Unbelievable power supply.
The fan has not even opened yet and I have used it intensively. Completely silent.
A great plus is the software that shows you not only the temperature and wattage consumption, but also the fan speed if it ever opens.
The maximum temperature it reached was 45°C.
I can't find anything negative about this beast.
*NEW* No issues as of 08/21/2017, it remains stable without exceeding 48°C and without the fan opening yet (i7 5820k oc 4.1ghz, NVidia Gtx 980).
*NEW* 01/01/2018 and the fan still hasn't opened... Unbelievably silent power supply.
*NEW* 11/16/2020 Still operating silently, the fan hasn't opened and there hasn't been any "EFFICIENCY 91 to 92%" issue.
*NEW 10/26/2021 Words are unnecessary. Silent as always, trouble-free with continuous operation for over 50% power (500w)
I got it by replacing an RM850 because it blew up on the first day for no reason and fried the motherboard and processor (X99 Deluxe + i7/5930k), which luckily were covered by the warranty. I keep the RM as a backup now in case anything goes wrong, but I no longer trust it...
Much better quality materials and all made in Japan. 7 years warranty and you get confused whether it's expected or not. The fan has never revved up with the GTX980 I have. It also includes a USB connection cable that, with the corresponding software, shows you data and information about the load.
