NZXT C1500 ATX v3.1 PSU Review

Hold Up Time

The hold-up time is extended, close to 25ms. Given the PSU’s high capacity, this is not easy. Only the legendary Corsair AX1600i achieves a longer hold-up time.

Inrush Current

We couldn’t take any inrush current measurements because draining the bulk caps completely was impossible. This means a good design, and it is positive, of course. This is why you won’t find the C1500 in the graph above.

Timings

The PSU supports Alternative Low Power Modes.

  1. I bought this one to replace my old Corsair RM1000X, but the +12v Rail reports to be 11.904 in BIOS and in Windows it’s between 11.904/11.808; More like 11.808 than 11.904 that is. The PCIe +12v Rails report around v12.060 with v11.883 under load. I wonder whether this is an issue with the power supply or some other component that could be giving me issues. Should I return the PSU?

  2. I don’t understand one thing, why this C1500 platform called CTT has the same nomenclature as the platform mounted on XPG Cybercore II 1300 and MSI MEG Ai1000P PCIe5.
    They are so different, starting from the double transformer of the 12v, passing through the number of capacitors on the primary, the different dc to dc stage, the different position of many components, the output connectors with only solid state capacitors for c1500 while there are electrolytic ones for the other two. On the other hand the CST platform of the Dark Power Pro 13 1600W is much more similar to the CTT.

  3. Thi is really a great PSU, CWT is always synonymous with trust and quality.
    I saw on their site that they produce a 2000w psu with the acronym CTT, atx 3.1 pcie 5.1, 80+TITANIUM, with only one 12V-2×6 connector but there is no review or internal photo to see if the platform is further updated.

  4. Hi,

    Just a quick one, those Sunon Maglev fans, do they not have an issue operating vertically- as I read this somewhere.

    Thanks
