Box & Bundle
I got an early sample for evaluation, so its package wasn’t the proper one, but I don’t care much about that as long as there are no changes in the PSU’s final design. In the bundle, you will find a bag to store any of the unused modular cables.
Product Photos
The dimensions are compact, with only 150mm depth, which is pretty low for a 1200W unit, and the PSU’s chassis follows a non-standard design, with the punched fan and exhaust grilles. I like that the fan grille is not restrictive since it will help the fan push more air at the PSU’s internals, which can help lower noise output. Given the PCB’s small dimensions, the less restricted airflow, the better.
Cables
| Modular Cables | ||||
| Description | Cable Count | Connector Count (Total) | Gauge | In Cable Capacitors |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ATX 20+4 pin (600mm) | 1 | 1 | 16-20AWG | No |
| 4+4 pin EPS12V (700mm) | 2 | 2 | 18AWG | No |
| 6+2 pin PCIe (700mm) | 4 | 4 | 16AWG | No |
| 12+2 pin PCIe (700mm) (600W) | 1 | 1 | 16-24AWG | No |
| SATA (550mm+130mm+130mm+130mm) | 3 | 12 | 18AWG | No |
| 4-pin Molex (550mm+150mm+150mm+150mm) | 1 | 4 | 18AWG | No |
| AC Power Cord (1370mm) – C13 coupler | 1 | 1 | 18AWG | – |
Many cables and connectors are provided, including four dedicated PCIe 6+2 pin and a single 12+2 pin PCIe, set at 600W. The number of peripheral connectors is also enough. All cables are long, especially the EPS and PCIe ones. Strangely, SF didn’t use 16 AWG gauges in the EPS cables. Moreover, it would be ideal if the ATX cable reached 650mm. Lastly, there are no in-cable caps, which Super Flower used to use in previous models, so cable management will be easier.
Hello,
I was wondering if this PSU is really atx 3.1 specification? If the connection is loose, will it short out and do the 0 watt/protection feature? Does it also have “Permitted on the 12V rail up to 13.75A for 0.1ms (165W), allowing for higher power draw from PCIe devices”?
I understand this is a really good PSU, but at the same time the 3.1 spec is confusing.
Thanks
Hi! It is ATX v3.1 since Intel doesn’t require 12V-2×6, but it says it is mandatory only on the GPU.
It can deliver 200% of its power for 0.1ms.
It can be confusing indeed!
Are you sure you reviewed the XP model here and not the XG ? because the photos on your site and the photos on the manufacturer’s site don’t match up ,on the manufacturer’s site XP model has different connector plugs on the psu side.
this was an early sample and because of my results, they changed the model’s number. Actually because of Cybenetics ratings.
Hi Aris,
i am still a little bit confused. On their website Super Flower lists a XG (Super Flower Leadex VII XG) and a XP (Super Flower Leadex VII Platinum Pro) series, both Cybenetics Platinum certified.
Your Cybenetics measurements for both series are almost identical. Except for different cable lengths, is there any difference between those psu’s? Or is this only a relabeling because of your cybenetics rating? In germany the XP and XG 1000w models cost almost the same. Assuming the price stays the same, which series would you recommend?
Thanks 🙂
Hi! We don’t do re-labeling, we have to check everything.
SF followed/thought according to the 80 P scheme. They will start thinking according to Cyben’s schemes from now on. If they cost the same, XP.
At the same prices, which is better and do you recommend buying seasonic Vertex platinum px 1200 or leadex vii 1200 platinum or leadex vii 1300 gold ?
thank you.
