Load regulation is tight at 12V, within 1% at 5V, and loose at 3.3V. The 1200 model has similar performance in load regulation.

Ripple suppression is good, although not top-notch.

Respected Crmaris, what is your impression of HITACHI electrolytic capacitors? In your perspective, do you consider them to be in the same tier as NCC (Nippon Chemi-Con) and Rubycon?
Yes, so far my experience with them is positive.
hello Aris based on your tier list which is better Unicon or Toshin Kogyo caps or it’s just on a same level ?
I haven’t tested any Unicon caps so far, electrolytic ones. TKs, the one I tested are pretty good!
so between TK LGW/LGWA/LGWB with TK LW/LFW/LFWB/LCW what’s different, i look at TK website there are no TK LW/LFW/LFWB/LCW on that product list but i’ve seen some cheap power supply with japan capacitor gimmick use these caps, so do they had real lifetime performance similar to LGW/LGWA/LGWB product or similar to other chinese caps like LTEC or ChengX ?
Not a clue, I just test whatever falls into my hands now. I will deal with details once I post the full database.
Hi, I was wondering if you could answer some questions that I have concerns about. I recently purchased this psu Lian Li Edge 1000w gold and installed it in my rig to power an rtx 5080.
With all these issues of 12vhpwr cables melting, I decided to check my 12v core voltages on hwinfo and noticed that this psu is showing readings of about 11.8v for PCIe and 16-pin, and would dip to as low as 11.6v under load.
I’ve tried checking all the cables and made sure they’re seated properly to avail.
Am I being too paranoid or do these reading look abnormally low. Should I submit and RMA and return the product?
