Efficiency Normal, Light & Super-Light Loads
Efficiency is decent at normal loads compared to similar spec units and high at light and super-light loads.
Average Efficiency
The platform’s average efficiency is decent at 115V and high enough at 230V.
Average PF
The APFC converter registers impressive performance!
Average Efficiency 5VSB
The 5VSB rail is efficient enough. Back in the day, I remember that a 5VSB rail with 80% efficiency was highly efficient, but this level is close to the usual one nowadays.
Vampire Power
Vampire power should be lower, especially at 230V.

I believe the images are not for this PSU in page 3, and instead are from the SeaSonic series. Notice the AC mains connector is using a different connector than the one in Page 2. Also, there is no “purple” anodized heatsinks, everything’s just black. Refer to the GX III 1050W review to see how it should look. Please fix this problem, thank you.
My bad, fixed. Thanks!
Excellent! Checking the review gallery now.
Also a big thanks for your exact component part number listings on page 2 of each variant of this PSU’s family (1250W, 1050W, 850W, 750W), it helped me a great lot to decide exactly which one of them to consider buying. Shame that Cooler Master doesn’t publish this information, but I always prefer to actually do a comparison between the internal components before considering to purchase a product, so as your review are an excellent source of information, thank you!
