Corsair TX1000 ATX v3.1 PSU Review

Box & Bundle

Strangely enough, the box doesn’t have a photo of the PSU on its front side. Only the model description and a mention of the ten-year warranty.

The PSU is compact enough, with a 150mm depth, and uses an interesting punched fan grill with triangular perforations large enough not to block the airflow. Around the back, the modular panel has ten sockets, including two 12V-2×6. I am unsure why Great Wall installed two 12V-2×6 sockets on a 1000W PSU. They are overkill, so only a single 12V-2×6 cable is provided.

Cables

Modular Cables
Description Cable Count Connector Count (Total) Gauge In Cable Capacitors
ATX connector 20+4 pin (610mm) 1 1 16-18AWG No
4+4 pin EPS12V (750mm) 2 2 16AWG No
6+2 pin PCIe (750mm) 3 3 16-18AWG No
12+4 pin PCIe (700mm) (600W) 1 1 16-24AWG No
SATA (500mm+150mm+150mm+150mm) 2 8 18AWG No
4-pin Molex (450mm+120mm+120mm) 1 3 18AWG No

There are enough long cables to handle the PSU’s maximum power without issues. All cables are also long enough, and the distance between the SATA connectors is adequate at 150mm, but I cannot state the same for the 4-pin Molex, where the distance between the respective connectors is only 120mm. Lastly, all cables are embossed, and their gauges have the appropriate thickness required by the ATX spec.
