Protection Features Evaluation

The +12 V rail can deliver more than 200 A before shutting down, which is impressive. The unit's OPP is set at 2400 W, so it will be perfectly capable of dealing with the power spikes of the upcoming generation of GPUs, which are said to consume considerably more power than the current generation. I would like to see lower OCP thresholds at 3.3 V and 5VSB. The 5 V rail has to be strong to handle ARGB gimmicks, and the VRMs are very capable as well.

DC Power Sequencing

According to Intel's most recent Power Supply Design Guide (revision 1.4), the +12 V and +5 V rails must have voltages equal to or greater than the +3.3 V rail's output at all times. For our first measurement, we turn the unit off and switch it back on without a load on any of the rails.



The 3.3 V rail is always at a lower voltage than the other two rails.

EMC Pre-Compliance Testing - Average and Peak EMI Detector Results

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) is the ability of a device to operate properly in its environment without disrupting the proper operation of other close-by devices.

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) stands for the electromagnetic energy a device emits, and it can cause problems in other close-by devices is too high.


EMI suppression is excellent.
