Hello,

I bought a MSI MPG 1000G to use with my computer, 7950X, 3090Ti EVGA FTW3, Kraken z73 360 RGB AIO, 2 NVME drives, 1ssd, might 1 hdd, 7 rgb case fans.

Is this power supply good?

Pros​

  • +
    + Delivered full power at 47°C
  • +
    + Good soldering and parts quality
  • +
    + Fluid dynamic bearing fan
  • +
    + Low vampire power consumption
  • +
    + High power factor
  • +
    + Tight +12V load regulation
  • +
    + Good ripple suppression
  • +
    + Decent transient response
  • +
    + Low inrush current with 115V input
  • +
    + Low leakage current
  • +
    + ALPM support
  • +
    + High number of connectors and cables
  • +
    + 150mm distance between the peripheral connectors
  • +
    + 10-year warranty

Cons​

  • -
    Not competitive overall performance
  • -
    Low efficiency under light and super light loads
  • -
    Efficiency could be higher at 5VSB
  • -
    Not so quiet operation
  • -
    Not tight load regulation at 5V and 3.3V
  • -
    High inrush current with 230V input
  • -
    Hold-up time needs to be a bit longer
  • -
    Accurate but lower than 16ms power ok signal
  • -
    There is room for improvement in transient response at 12V


Overall it isn't a bad PSU.

Don't know what some of the cons mean, High inrush current, Hold up time, power ok signal.

Well I am still within window to return. I can get a Corsair HX1200, Seasonic USA Prime PX1300, EVGA Supernova 1300 P Plus, Silverstone SX 1000.

You should have searched for reviews/asked before buying...

Read reviews of those other PSU's or wait for others to chime in.
