Channel Well Technology provides the platform, the same OEM that manufactured the previous generation of RMx units. CWT also makes the RMx Shift units. The RMx platform is different from the RMx Shift one, which is expected given the different placement of the modular board. The new RMx platform looks overloaded with parts, although the PCB’s dimensions are normal, and several daughter boards are used to save some space. Given the PSU’s efficiency, the heatsinks are large enough to take some burden off the fan’s shoulders for reduced noise output. The electrolytic caps on the secondary side are not blocked from the fan’s airflow and are of high quality. Although polymer caps are preferred for ripple filtering because of their increased tolerance to high operating temperatures and their high ripple current ratings, still, their increased cost and reduced capacitance make the electrolytic caps a requirement for every PSU. To cope with increased transient loads, besides a high-speed response, you also need increased capacitance on the secondary side, and that is where the electrolytic caps are required since they offer a high price per capacitance ratio.
The build quality is high, with good parts everywhere and excellent soldering quality on the PCB. The design follows the modern trend, with an APFC converter, half-bridge topology, and an LLC resonant converter on the primary side. On the secondary side is a synchronous rectification scheme for the 12V rail and a pair of DC-DC converters for the minor rails. The PSU also uses a Microchip MCU to control the fan’s speed.
The fan is the usual aspect: the Corsair NR140HP which uses a fluid dynamic bearing that won’t bother you at low speeds.
Aris did PCCooler YS1200 basically same PCB parts & design of Seasonic GX/PX-1200 ?
U mean the “Same Platform” thing?
Don’t remember sorry. please check Cybenetics if there is parts description for both units there.
Thank you for all these PSUs reviews !
you are welcome!
