The HCG1000 Pro Platinum power supply measures 160mm x 150 mm by 86 mm so it's reasonably compact for the class. It weighs around 3.4kg. It is neutral in regards to colour scheme, with only a hint of accenting in Antec orange/yellow on the side stickers and top bolts (see image below).
The fan is hidden behind a shroud – we know it is a fluid dynamic bearing (FDB) fan, we will take a closer look when we open it later in the review. We are guessing a Hong Hua 135mm FDB fan, as this is one of Seasonic's favourites.
The modular bay is home to three rows of connectors, all labelled for ease of install during the build phase. The other side of the power supply has a power connector, switch, and semi-fanless operation switch called ‘hybrid mode'.
The power supply can deliver 25A on both minor rails and 83A on the primary +12V rail (996W).
