Looks to be made by Delta so it should be decent. I suspect this PSU will have stiff competition with the Seasonic Platinum-1000 and the Kingwin LZP-1000.

The price isn't too terrible considering the premium usually paid for platinum series PSUs. I might be taking a look at this soon.

 

[memadmax]

I'll take 10.

well done!

So i see this has 4 12v lanes. The 1200watt has 8 12v lanes. Whats the main difference there?

Damn so expensive.... cheesus making a 4 way crossfire seems quite expensive, if this is the kind of PSU that i need to buy

Awesome! It's nice to see more efficient power supplies comming out, espesially with the smaller manufacturing process of the Kepler and Ivys that could decrease power draw as a whole.

Overpriced! I'm going to go buy that $15 2000w PSU!

On serious note, I want to see Jonnyguru review the PSU, and try and fry it.

No appetite for Antec PSU lately... I had better results w/ Corsair sinlge rail high current supply

 

[leon2006]

Too many added circuits per rail equates to more potential failure and lower MTBF. Field failure is high on loaded supplies

Last Antec I had was a Basiq 350W and had problems with it that Antec wanted no part in hearing!! I got a new case with a bottom mount and the ATX 4pin wouldn't reach. After 3 different reps, they FINALLY and reluctantly agreed to send me M to F extensions. Got them 4 weeks later, needless to say, I already had it replaced long before that and won't feel bad never looking back. +1 for the new PSU, but -100 for horrible customer relations...

If you can afford a 4 way crossfire setup then spending a few hundred on a PSU is nothing!

I can start with 1 unit and keep buying them as i find good bargains from friends, or as the tech gots older but still available, but the psu its a single big stroke

The main difference will be on Amps on each lane.
