While the C1500 uses the more advanced and semi-digital CTT platform, the lower-capacity members of the same line use the analog CXT platform. The design is contemporary, with a half-bridge topology on the primary side and an LLC resonant converter. On the secondary side, a synchronous scheme rectifies the 12V rail through eight Infineon FETs, and a pair of DC-DC converters generate the minor rails.

All parts are of high quality, and the soldering quality is also good. The cooling fan is by Hong Hua, which dominates the PSU market because of its fair prices, good quality, and performance. The fan uses a fluid dynamic bearing for lower noise and increased longevity.

  1. Very impressive work! Thank you very much! 🙂

    I was wondering if you heard anything about the Straight Power 12 from be quiet? I have barely heard about this unit and I was hesitating between the Straight Power 12, a Corsair RMx/e or a NZXT C Gold for an RTX 4070 ti Super + i5-14600K system (850 – 1000W range).

    Thank you againt!
