Enermax PlatiGemini 1200 W Review

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 typeConnectors per cableCable lengthCable count
MB (24/20 pins)1600 mm1
ATX12VO (10 pin)1600 mm1
CPU (8/4 pins)1700 mm2
PCIe (8/6 pins)1600 mm3
SATA4450 mm + 150 mm + 150 mm + 150 mm2
Molex4450 mm + 150 mm + 150 mm + 150 mm1
12V-2x61 (12 + 4 Pins to 12 + 4 Pins)600 mm1


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.
