Super Flower released a brand-new platform EVGA puts to use first in their flagship G2-1600 unit. The latter capably delivers huge levels of power, offers numerous cables and connectors, and regulates loads on all rails exceptionally well, excelling in efficiency with normal loads and ripple suppression. It also uses nothing but Japanese capacitors and will, as such, retain its performance as time goes on. The bundle is rich and includes a quality AC power cord that will easily deliver even the 15 A once you put a full load on the PSU with 115 VAC input. The 230 VAC in Europe will make it much easier as amperage is cut in half.

The G2-1600 is an amazing unit, and although it costs a bomb, I think it deserves to since it offers unparalleled performance as only the digital Corsair AX1500i can compare, with 100 W less power, but higher overall efficiency. I was able to pull 1680 W out of the G2-1600 at around 46°C ambient for a prolonged period of time, and more than 1600 W on the +12V rail alone under the same conditions. If anything, this is a clear indication of the platform's and design's potential. It may cost much more than any other Leadex-based EVGA unit, but I strongly believe that it is worth the extra money if you need such a strong unit. The only significant downside I spotted was its low efficiency at very low loads, below 100 W, but I am pretty sure those who buy this PSU won't mind its efficiency scores at such low loads.

The glory mining days are long gone, but if you need a PSU to power five incredibly strong and hungry VGAs, the G2-1600 is for you. It is among the strongest and the noisiest PSUs I have tested so far, although definitely the best in its class. EVGA and Super Flower have after a series of new models now released this amazing PSU that sets new performance records in the "mega category" above 1500 W. It is great to see analog circuits are still alive and kicking, with the ability to offer umber-high performance to those who don't want to administer firmware upgrades to even their PSUs to keep power delivery as simple as possible. I look forward to an even stronger or Titanium-certified EVGA and Super Flower unit with the same capacity—it will hopefully not take too long until such a unit appears.
