HXi Series PSUs combine a 140mm fluid dynamic bearing fan with Zero RPM mode support for long-lasting fan performance and near-silent operation when the fan switches off at low and medium loads – only spinning as fast as it needs to.

It’s a known fact of the hardware that it’s processed like so, but without reports of 100% confirmation it’s hard to really validate. Corsair spent a year modifying and tuning the design to increase performance and reliability to the desired levels. We can't really knock Corsair for giving the end user more options however, their software suite is certainly one of the best on the market. The other side of the power supply has the power connector, the power switch and a vented port to aid with cooling efficiency. The build quality is high, and quality parts were used, including Infineon and Vishay FETs, along with Texas Instruments controllers.This new range of HXi units incorporates only two models – a 1000W unit and a more powerful 1500W version which we test today. We managed to get the PSU to achieve 1692W before it would shut down, delivering 192W more than the rated specifications. The new HXi range also utilise ZERO RPM mode to stop the fan spinning and to reduce noise when lower loads are in place. These two new power supplies are 80 Plus Platinum rated and incorporate fluid dynamic bearing fans (FDB). Due to public requests we have changed our temperature settings recently – previously we rated with ambient temperatures at 25C, we have increased ambient temperatures by 10c (to 35c) in our environment to greater reflect warmer internal chassis conditions.

At 1500W, the fan is clearly audible (around 38 dBa) although the low pitch of the fan actually means it is not too intrusive. The Corsair HX1500i ships in a heavy yellow box with a high resolution photograph of the power supply on the front along with some basic details. The HXi series supports the modern standby sleep mode and sets new standards for light-load efficiency with quiet operation and extremely fast wake-up times from sleep mode. power standard from Intel®, supporting the PCIe Gen 5 platform and resisting transient power spikes.Details about the extent of our regulation by the Financial Conduct Authority are available from us on request. The load on the minor rails affects overall noise output, but on the other hand, this unit has powerful minor rails, so most likely, you will never have to push them at the max. The Corsair HX1500i is a smartly finished power supply and the modular design is cleanly laid out for system builders and under most load situations, the power supply is almost silent. The added benefit of digital controllers is that they can “talk” to the system, allowing for several functions. I prefer large PSUs over downsized ones, which can be noisier due to restricted airflow in their internals.

Pay in 3 is a form of credit, may not be suitable for everyone and use may affect your credit score. Another issue is the lack of 12VHPWR connectors, but I guess, like many brands, Corsair will provide these cables to the owners of this PSU once it has them available, and the new GPUs that require them are out on the market. PLUS Platinum Certified: Up to 92% efficiency for exceptional low power consumption, less noise, and cooler temperatures. The only circuits that use analog controllers are the VRMs for the minor rails and the 5VSB circuit.

la ventola parte piu'tardi del xfx ,molto silenzioso,differenza dal xfx che non ha protezione da temperatura,veramente un bel alimentatore. The AIO Cooler showed up very quickly and exactly as described, brand new, still sealed in it's fancy box! Use of these and any missed payments may affect your ability to obtain credit from Klarna and other lenders. In the HX1500i’s case, through iCUE, you can toggle single rail or multi rail mode, control the fan speed and monitor the PSU’s performance.
