Channel Well Technology (CWT) is a major OEM of PC and server power supplies, as well as power bricks for notebooks and consumer electronics. The company is also selling PSUs in the retail channel under its own brand, just the way Seasonic and Fortron do. These can be seen as de-facto reference designs for the brand. We begin our tour of CWT with the HPN line of hot-swappable redundant power supplies. A 1000 W model was on display, which meets ATX 3.1 and PCIe Gen 5.1 specs (cutting-edge), along with 80 Plus Gold switching efficiency.

The CTT series are the company's enthusiast-segment high-Wattage PSUs for gaming PCs. These 80 Plus Titanium efficiency-rated PSUs come in 1350 W and 1650 W variants, meet ATX 3.1 and PCIe Gen 5.1 specs, and offer two 600 W-capable 12V-2x6 connectors, besides two 4+4 pin EPS, and half a dozen 6+2 pin PCIe power. There is an even larger 2000 W model, although we're not sure if this meets 80 Plus Titanium. It uses dual +12 V rails, and offers two 600 W 12V-2x6, besides four EPS, and six 6+2 pin PCIe, making it ideal for Ryzen Threadripper or Xeon W high-end desktops or workstations; or even 2P servers.



The CSY is also enthusiast segment by specs, but comes in performance-segment capacities of 750 W, 850 W, 1000 W, and 1200 W. You get 80 Plus Titanium efficiency, and at least one 12V-2x6 with 600 W capability.

The CTD series forms the performance segment of the brand, it comes in 750 W, 850 W, 1000 W, and 1200 W capacities, offers 80 Plus Platinum efficiency, meets ATX 3.1 + PCIe Gen 5.1 specs, and offers one 600 W 12V-2x6. A notch below this is the GPX series, which forms the company's mid-range. You still get full-modular cabling, but capacities range between 550 W, 650 W, 750 W, 850 W, and 1000 W, with 80 Plus Gold efficiency. The 550 W model gets 300 W-rated 12V-2x6, the 650 W and 750 W models get 450 W-rated 12V-2x6, and the 850-1000 W models get the full 600 W 12V-2x6.



The CSX series are SFX PSUs, with SFX 4.1 (comparable to ATX 3.1) and PCIe Gen 5.1 compliance; 80 Plus Gold efficiency, and capacities of 650 W, 750 W, 850 W, and 1000 W. The CTC series are compact ATX PSUs, which come in 1000 W and 1200 W capacities. Both the CSX and CTC offer 12V-2x6.

Benchmark Scores I once clocked a Celeron-300A to 564MHz on an Abit BE6 and it scored over 9000.
Last time I saw a CWT-branded PSU was in the beige PCs era!

Any idea if these modular cables are using a standardised pinout like Corsair does, and what the availability of those modular cables is if they're not Corsair's open standard?
