CORSAIR, a world leader in PC gaming peripherals and enthusiast components, today announced two new additions to its industry-leading line-up of computer power supplies, the SF Series 80 PLUS Platinum in 600W and 450W, and the VENGEANCE Series 80 PLUS Silver in 650W and 750W.

The small-form-factor SFX SF Series 80 PLUS Platinum PSUs belie their small size with all the features of a new high-end PSU. 80 PLUS Platinum efficient up to 94%, the new SF Series continue the CORSAIR legacy of superb electrical performance. Using 100%,105°C rated Japanese capacitors SF Series PSUs deliver incredibly stable voltages and ultra-low ripple noise - performance that's backed by a seven-year warranty.





Fully modular cabling is ideal for small-form-factor builds where space is at a premium, and individually sleeved cables mean that not only is it easier to route and position connections, but the finished system looks great too. The new SF Series also equips a low-noise 92mm fan, allowing for higher airflow at lower RPMs, with a Zero RPM fan mode switching the fan off entirely at low and medium loads for near-silent operation. Finally, and by popular demand, the new SF Series also includes an SFX-to-ATX bracket, allowing installation into both small form factor and full-size ATX cases, for when your next big build, needs a small PSU.



The new VENGEANCE Series 80 PLUS Silver PSUs provide the next step up in efficiency for system builders used to 80 PLUS Bronze, alongside low-noise performance that means an entry-level PC needn't be loud. 80 PLUS Silver efficient to up to 89%, the new VENGEANCE Series also feature 100% ,105°C rated Japanese capacitors to ensure stable power delivery and long-term reliability. For those concerned with over current protection, the VENGEANCE Series includes a switchable single/multiple +12V rail design, enabling users to instantly switch from multiple +12V rails with OCP on each cable, to a single +12V rail; allowing all of the PSU's +12V capability on any of the PSU's DC connectors.



Semi-modular cables make system builds and connecting graphics card and storage upgrades easier, while an ultra-quiet 120mm cooling fan with Zero RPM fan mode allows for near-silent operation at low and medium loads. Backed by a comprehensive five-year warranty, this is 80 PLUS Silver, back with a VENGEANCE.

Availability, Warranty and Pricing
The new SF Series and VENGEANCE Series PSUs will be available in July 2018, via the CORSAIR worldwide network of authorized retailers and distributors, as well as direct from the www.corsair.com webstore.

SF Series power supplies are backed by a seven-year warranty, while VENGEANCE Series power supplies are backed by a five-year warranty. Both are supported by the CORSAIR worldwide customer service and technical support network.

Is this the same Vengeance line they have in Europe which is the CX line (CWT OEM) with a tighter part supply list? If they keep the same price as the CX line it's a winner.

SF600 gold was already delivering platinum rating level of performance so i don't think it's worth the upgrade if you have one of those .

To be fair, it's never really been worth the money to upgrade from gold to platinum, period, unless your PSU goes explodey or something. It's only arguably worth it in high cost energy regions at initial point of investment, not as an "upgrade."

I'm sorry, I'm thinking like a cryptominer again. Need to stop doing that.
