Load regulation is tight at 12V and within 1% at 5V. It would be nice to see below 1% load regulation at 3.3V.

Ripple suppression is good, but the competition is extra tough.

  1. While waiting for the new Cooler Master X MIGHTI i bought an Antec NeoEco NE1300GM and it is exactly the same Helly Technology platform.
    For the price I paid I think it is excellent. I must also point out that the Galax HOF GH1300 is also exactly the same Helly Technology platform as the 1st player NGDP 1300, the Antec NeoEco NE1300GM, and the Lian Li edge 1300, but the galax costs in Europe almost 3 times the price of the Antec.
    I attach a photo of the internal galax.

    Is the same OEM for Antec NeoECO NE1000G M ATX 3.0 and this one.

    My comment dissapeared?

    1. 850w 1st player is helly tec but not the same platform of 1000w and 1300w.
      Antec NE1000G is the same platform of 1st player 1000w
      Antec ne1300gm is the same platform of 1st player NGDP 1300w, GALAX HOF GH1300W, LIAN LI edge 1300w

      1. Hey, I just got this PSU and checked the report—it’s dated September 2023. I’m assuming it has the old fan, so I’d like to return it.
        Also, I noticed that the store where I bought it now only sells the 3.1 version. Do you know by any chance if there are any differences from 3.0 besides the cable?

  3. Hey,

    I was searching information about the Antec Neo Eco NE1000G M and looks like they use the OEM (Helly Technology). Antec even has a 1300W version too, like 1stplayer does, so it may be based in the same platform than this PSU, do you know if this information is true?

    I bought the Antec one as i was in need of a compact PSU, plus got it pretty cheap (Less than 160USD). I was worried about the quality of the PSU as i couldn’t find any proper review of it, but reading this one and the price i paid, if the OEM is Helly Technology i think i made a good decision.

    The Antec one uses a FDB fan tho, should i be worried for the fans as you said ”fluid dynamic is less tolerant to heat.” or about the FETs?

    Thank you very much!

    1. I am not sure if it uses the same platform as this one, because I don’t have close relations with Antec.
      Helly proved to be a good OEM so far. FDB fans are ok for normal use.
