The 12V rail’s OCP triggering points are set close to 130% but are not correctly set since, under high temperatures, not only is the triggering point lower than at standard temperatures, but it is also higher! The same was the case in the 1200W model. This doesn’t make sense since the PSU is stressed more at high temperatures. Moreover, the over-power protection triggering points are identical, but at least conservatively set.
On the minor rails, the OCP triggering points are set high, especially at 3.3V, and to make matters even worse, they are similar under normal and high temperatures. The rest of the essential protection features, except for fan failure, should be present in such an expensive PSU utilizing an MCU.

So it is not such a great psu.. prime psu are better from what I can understand.
I thought it was a prime platform..
I thought they were produced by other OEMs, not by Seasonic. Will you have the chance to test the top of the line Asus Rog Thor III 1600W Titanium as well? Thank you.
I am not sure if Asus will send the 1600W model for a spin.
