Have to say, would be interesting to see someone put the 200% power excursion limit to the test on the 1300W model....
Surely that would need to come with a C20 instead of C14 power connection..??

I miss Johnny Guru and his PSU reviews. Would have been great to have these new PSU's reviewed by someone as knowledgeable.

will a 200% transient load test on 12v for the SF leadex gold 1300w do for now?

Also, can someone please tell SF you can call a PSU line something besides "Leadex". Currently they have on their web site
Leadex Titanium
Leadex Platinum
Leadex special edition
Leadex V Platinum Pro
Leadex VI Platinum Pro
Leadex VII Platinum Pro
Leadex III Gold UP
Leadex III Gold
Leadex V Gold Pro
Leadex VII XG

The next line should be called Leadex WTF?

Yeah, I was looking at that. Leadex was a new platform they came up with that was great, then II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, and now back to III somehow? Plus the Titanium, Platinum, and Special Edition lol...I was trying to remember what the differences were in some of them and I have no recollection if it was a topology specific or if it's entirely just marketing at this point.

Thank you, I was starting to think I was going crazy, because I could swear seeing at least the Leadex VI.

It has to be something with topology but it's so hard to recall what each change is, going to their web site and looking at the Leadex III Gold 750w one would think it's at least ATX 3.0 but SF has it as "Comply With ATX 12V. v2.32 & EPS 12V. v2.92 Specification" which means more than a 12+4 pin header change to switch to ATX 3.1. You and I are confused, imagine someone looking at one of those tier lists and goes to buy one of these units on Amazon and sees various Leadex III units at various prices. The SF marketing dept needs to go.

Ooofff, that is some voltage sag once it hits 180%....

I mean they are just about managing that 200% excursion but you can sense the "I dont wanna!" and "I miss the old days where OCP would have kicked in 50% ago" from the PSU....

I wonder what the efficiency numbers would have been for that moment...

Using a Leadex III gold80+ never had issues. Really well made PSU's

Other day I was looking for some parts and looked in psu box it had an extra 8 pin cable for cpu which is nice if needed

efficiency on a 100us test? Anything longer the protection kick in.

True, and it would be very difficult to test on an AC signal as that pulse is shorter than the rectified phase peaks...
In theory it could be tested feeding a pure DC 120-240V input to the PSU, purely to see how much more than that 2000W+ load is then pulled through the AC input (efficiency) and also to see how much of a spike (and how long for) it *could* pull from the wall... Would be bitterly ironic if the PSU can tolerate the power spike without cutting out but the AC breaker in someone's house / office / dorm room can be tripped out by it. I know most breakers are actually slow to react (comparatively - rated in milli not micro seconds) - likely not as bad as inrush current on most PSUs but even that has caused a few people problems....

I think his review is good, and yes, I also read his reviews across different hardware sites. Seems like he is the one stop shop to review any PSU.
