Nice looking PSU will fit real nice with blue builds

22mv at max Wattage is just stonkin'! Bravo Corsair, I love the Idea of this in a 450 - 500w max draw system just being silent.

P.S. your in-article link is also not up to scratch Mr Thomas..

-1 score

I think it looks really cheap with the label. I dunno why, just does to me. Nice pricing considering the main competition seems to be atleast £10 more except the Superflower Leadex. That doesn't really count though as its not as easily available.

ahh thats good timing on this review as i was gonna buy the RM series but think im now going to use one these.

it also uses a nice shade of blue on the sticker

I thought they discontinued the HX series, nice to see they are still going.

 

[RizeAllard]

As I got a bad experience with HX series I just can hope never ever anybody has the same problem with it I had.. Anyway seems really good one.

The webmaster is on a roll. He's even sorting Guv out now. Time to put the kettle on I think.

Nice review. I think next year when I get ready for a new build, this might replace my original HX1000.

enforcing best-practice, he knows the score he just forgets

That PSU looks absolutely amazing, even if it does have a weird shape than the old black box that I'm used to. I don't know if I'd get it, but damn does it look pretty.

Looks wonderful apart from the flat ribbon-style cables. Not a big fan of the plastic look (yet I own a psu with them, go figure).

This is a "reboot". Everything gets a performance/feature kick eventually.

AX used to be Gold, now it's Platinum. HX was Bronze, then Gold and now is Platinum and has Link features, fully modular and a better fan.

It's good to re-use old series names. People are familiar with them and know where they sit in the line up.

Loving the chamfered edges! Can't go wrong on the price for such a good power supply.

I just can't get myself to love Corsair. With Antec offering affordable, reliable options I look to them first and if I was going to pay more I would look to SeaSonic. Eventually I might give Corsair a go but after a horrible experience with them in relation to rebates I really didn't have a good taste left in my mouth in regards to the brand. I never had trouble with rebates ever until Corsair.
