Box & Bundle
The product comes in a sturdy box with a PSU photo at the front and its model number. Inside, the protection is good, with packing foam surrounding the product. Moreover, a bag contains all the cables.
Product Photos
The PSU has compact dimensions, and the exterior design looks nice. On the front side, besides the AC receptacle, there is a power switch and a button for toggling on/off the fan’s passive operation. Around the back, the modular board has ten sockets, including two 12V-2×6 sockets, which are overkill for a 1000W PSU unless the user wants to install two mid-level graphics cards not exceeding 300W TDP.

There are two EPS, a single PCIe, and two high-power PCIe cables. I asked MSI why they didn’t include more 6+2 PCIe but only a single one, and the reply is that this PSU is destined for NVIDIA graphics cards and not for AMD ones! All gauges are embossed, and the cables are long enough, with the distance between the peripheral connectors at 150mm, which is ideal.
Considering getting the A1250GS version of this as I have a MSI 5090 Vanguard coming in soon and currently only have a EVGA 1000 GT for my 13900K/5090 build. Do you think the 1250 version should be similar to this one? I was looking to get an ATX 3.1 PSU and mainly wanted to go with MSI on the off chance anything happens with the card, they then can’t blame the PSU.
1250W is by the same OEM CWT. One problem we had at 115V is that the APFC confused our power analyzers, dropping low PF
Hello, Aris ! I’ve been looking at multiple benchmarks and reviews on your page and on the cybernetic’s site and idk that psu to choose for a 5070 level of build, the super flower 850w leadex vii gx, the msi a850g, or the corsair rmx 850w atx 3.1, price wise the first 2 are basically the same price and the corsair one is 25$ more expensive
I would probably go for the Corsair unit. 25 dollars more is nothing for a PC part that you will keep for many years.
Are super flower units such as leadex vii xg and pro variants not as good as people say they are ?
they are pretty good. Who says the opposite?
Thanks for your suggestion ,but I’ll probably get the xg psu because it’ll allow for a longer gpu in my 20l case
Hi, Aris! I scrolled down Enermax’s website, and came up with Enermax Revolution III. It is said to be ATX 3.1, and i’m pretty sure it’s a replacement for Revolution DF judging from its price
Would you be consider to review this unit? Thanks
if Enermax sends it over, I could take a look 🙂
hello Aris did Gigabyte sends you some of their new AI PSU ?
GBT doesn’t even talk to me, for many years now after I exposed its failure PSUs.
