A few weeks ago we reviewed the Coolermaster Silent Pro Gold 600W, an extremely impressive power supply on a variety of levels. While 600W should be enough for most systems, there will always be a more demanding audience who need higher levels of power.
For this particular audience we will look at the highest power output model in the Silent Pro Gold range, the 1200W model.
Can this monster supply hold its own against the incredible class leading Corsair AX1200 that walked away with our top award in July this year?

Just ordered one from OCUK, needed a new PSU and was going to get the corsair 850W, but its only 35 more!
Not often you see a 1200W PSU with gold cert for under 200 quid. winner for me.
Very nice, that just hits the spot for me. was going to spend about 130 on a new one, but I seem to buy a new PSU every 2 years, so this one might last me 4. thats my logic. might be after christmas, but I think this is for me.
I love the KitGuru PSU reviews, top job.
I am glad you didnt nail it for the ripple results. its still well within specs and some sites are known to mark a product down on this.
Products should only be marked down if the problem actually affects the user. this isn’t a problem. just a little higher ripple than leading products and well within the specs.
Very impressed with this and the pricing especially. most of them are 250 here.
Pricing is good as everyone says. its only 30 quid more than some 850W psus ive seen online. looks like a solid buy. design of the chassis looks very like the corsair products, or is no one else seeing that? the font etc.
