Packaging and Accessories
The PlatiGemini (and other more recent power supplies from Enermax) come in what only can be called minimalist brown cardboard boxes. But at least they have informative branding around it, featuring images and all the specs of the PSU you would expect.
Opening the box reveals the user's manual and a neatly packed power supply with a set of cables stored in a separate pouch. Alongside there's also a user's manual, mounting screws, cable combs and the AC power cable (hiding away from the camera).
Cables
The table below summarizes the cables that the power supply comes with:
Modular Cables |
---|
Cable type | Connectors per cable | Cable length | Cable count |
---|
MB (24/20 pins) | 1 | 600 mm | 1 |
ATX12VO (10 pin) | 1 | 600 mm | 1 |
CPU (8/4 pins) | 1 | 700 mm | 2 |
PCIe (8/6 pins) | 1 | 600 mm | 3 |
SATA | 4 | 450 mm + 150 mm + 150 mm + 150 mm | 2 |
Molex | 4 | 450 mm + 150 mm + 150 mm + 150 mm | 1 |
12V-2x6 | 1 (12 + 4 Pins to 12 + 4 Pins) | 600 mm | 1 |
The PSU is of course fully modular, with no attached cables. Enermax uses individually sleeved cables that could be tidied up with the supplied cable combs. They are textured and zip-tied near the component side of the connector. No complaints here.
In terms of the number of cables, there is little to complain apart from just a single 600 W cable for a GPU. While technically a 1200 W PSU would not be a recommendation for dual RTX 4090s, two RTX 4080 SUPER cards still utilizing the same power connector could definitely be a match.
None of the cables feature any inline capacitors for ripple/noise suppression. A mix of 16 and 18 AWG cabling is used with 18 AWG being predominant.
