Efficiency Normal, Light & Super-Light Loads
Efficiency is high enough at light and super-light loads, and it exceeds 70% with a 2% load at 115V input. With the same load level (2%) but 230V input, efficiency drops below 70%.
Average Efficiency
The average efficiency meets the Cybenetics Platinum criteria. Nonetheless, MSI decided to “downgrade” this badge to Gold.
Average PF
The APFC converter operates decently at 115V, but requires tuning at 230V.
Average Efficiency 5VSB
The 5VSB rail’s efficiency exceeds 80% at both voltage inputs I tried.
Vampire Power
Vampire power is low.
