Cooler Master Masterwatt Maker 1200W MIJ PSU Review

The Cooler Master Masterwatt Maker 1200W MIJ arrives in a very large, very heavy black box (404 mm x 349 mm x 202mm and weighing in at around 9kg). There is a high resolution image of the power supply on the front of the box. Its not the most eye catching artwork, but the size of the box alone certainly attracts the eye.

The rear of the box highlights some specifications of the power supply in multiple languages. Cooler Master are offering a 10 year warranty with the unit, which while impressive, actually falls 2 years short of the recent announcement by Seasonic. Still, no doubting 10 years is a heck of a solid warranty to have when buying a new supply.

The outer shell of the box removes to reveal a very fancy hard box underneath. This box pulls apart into two sections.

Oh Fancy. Cooler Master explain just how special this power supply is and how they teamed up with the legendary Murata Corporation to create something unique, built to the highest standards. People who enjoy the unboxing experience will love this. For some reason I was reminded of when I unboxed my first pair of Sony R10 headphones many decades ago. At each side of this sheet of thick paper are two containers.

Both of these boxes contain the modular cables. They are even colour coordinated, as shown by the thick rubber zips above.

One of the boxes contains mounting screws, cable ties and a small user manual, which was actually a little disappointing considering the work that has gone into everything else so far.

There are no shortage of cables inside both of the hard cases, as shown above. Most of the cables are high grade 16-18 AWG with only the 20+4 Pin ATX connector being a 22AWG design.

Cables:

20+4 ATX connector x 1
4+4 pin CPU connector x 2
6+2 pin PCI-E x4 (4 total)
6+2 pin PCI-E + 6+2 pin PCI-E x4 (8 total)
SATA (4 headers per cable) x 4 (16 total)
Molex (5 headers per cable) x 1
Molex (4 headers per cable) x 1

No shortage of power cables, thats for sure!
