What 1200W power supply

JonJ678 said:
Well, yeah, it would. 1200W at about 85% efficiency is 180W wasted as heat under full load. Thats the same amount of heat given off by an overclocked quad core processor. The processor gets a massive heatsink, complete with one or two good fans, or a waterblock. The power supply gets an awkward airflow route, one 120mm fan, and the best they can do with heatsinks within the atx packaging.

Every 1200W, air cooled, atx power supply is going to be loud. The only other option is to let them run so hot that they burn out.

Thats wrong actually my Antec HCP 1200 is pretty much silent, and the noise we was talking about with the ZX 1250w is nothing to do with the fan it's coil whine, they are just a bad design same as the Z series were.
 
The newtone is good but the only prob is the pcie cable is 45cm while my ax was more and in the review they did not say if there is any item that you can bind the cabels with
 
So have you actually tried to measure with a piece of string the distance of PCI-E cable needed to route neatly through the case?

Me?

I dont even own the case.

Are you telling me you cant find a piece of string to use to thread through the cases wiring holes to approximately where the graphics card goes? then measure this with a ruler or tape measure.

Dont have a mobo or anything in my pc cba telling why
 
Well im not doing it, can you do anything yourself?

Your being extremely picky in this thread and moaning about having to use a iPhone to browse the web isn't an excuse as I sometimes use my Android phone just fine.

Asking natural English speakers to try and translate a Swedish website to try and find a PSU for you and then you moaning that its either,

To expensive.
Cant be Corsair.
Cables are the wrong length.
You cant find cable extensions.
You want Gold rated efficiency.
It must all be from a certain website.

You got more than enough suggestions in this 3 page thread . Pick one.

Lol just said that i had sucky net where i was and have no parts in my pc so cant do it and if you cant help then np
 
Have we moved away from the idea of dual-psu solutions now? I always thought it was a great way to keep costs down if you had the space in your case? Is that worth considering any more?
 
The point is that it is significantly cheaper to get 1200W with 2x600W PSUs that it is in a single unit - if you are tight on cash - consider buying 2 lower powered, high quality PSUs instead of one almightly unit. ;)
