The Super Flower Leadex III 1300W is a strong ATX v3.1 compliant PSU, capable of supporting the current and next generation GPUs. With the NVIDIA RTX 5000 and the new AMD RX 8000 around the corner, it is time to think about your power needs!
The Super Flower Leadex III 1300W is (or will be) included in my best ATX v3.x & PCIe 5.x PSU picks article.
Super Flower continues to have a strong presence in the PSU market, mainly selling under its name and not as an OEM (aka making products for other brands). In today’s review, I will look at the Leadex III 1300W, which offers a high watt-per-dollar ratio thanks to its increased max power and the very good price, which at the time of the review was set at $160. With this amount, you get a Cybenetics Platinum certified PSU, able to handle up to 2600W power spikes. Hence, you won’t face any issues even if you pair it with an NVIDIA RTX 5090 (once it becomes available and, of course, given that you have the money to buy it).
