Raijintek Intros Ampere Series ATX 3.0 PSUs with 80 Plus Platinum Rating
Raijintek over the weekend debuted the Ampere series of fully modular ATX 3.0 power supplies. The lineup currently only has a 1200 W model, but the company is working to add more variants based on wattage. This is Raijintek's first PSU series to meet 80 Plus Platinum and Cybenetics Platinum 230 V switching efficiency ratings. Although there's just the 1200 W variant, there are two color options, black and matte white. These impact not just the color of the PSU's body, but also the included modular cables. The PSU meets ATX 3.0 and PCIe Gen 5 specifications, and includes a 600 W-capable 12V-2x6 modular cable. This is a more durable successor to the 12VHPWR connector that maintains compatibility with it.
Besides the 600 W 12V-2x6, and a 24-pin ATX, you get four 6+2 pin PCIe power, two 8-pin EPS, eight SATA power, three Molex, and one Berg. Under the hood, the Raijintek Ampere features a single +12 V rail design, with active PFC, LLC, and DC-to-DC switching. Protections are included against over/under voltage, overcurrent, overpower, and short-circuit. The PSU uses a 120 mm fluid dynamic bearing fan that can stay off up to 40% of +12 V load. The PSU measures 14 cm in length, which should play well with mid-tower cases, especially given its 1200 W wattage. The company didn't reveal pricing.
