Corsair power supplies are a lesson to many other manufacturers on how it should be done. The paint work is deep and the two tone labels on either side of the chassis look elegant. The paintwork is resistant to fingerprints and is very difficult to mark. As with the AX1200i, we ran a screwdriver down one side of the chassis with a little force and it didn’t mark at all.
The 120mm fan is hidden behind a black grill, with the Corsair logo positioned in the center.
One side of the power supply is honeycomb vented to improve air flow around the components. At one side there is a power slot and switch.
The modular panel is built to high standards, with all the ports labeled for ease of installation. There is also a self test button and a ‘comm port’ which is used for Corsair Link connection.
The Corsair AX860i can deliver 71.6A via the +12V rail which will cover a wide range of two and three way SLI and Crossfire configurations. The total power output is rated at 860W @ 50c ambient temperature.
very nice indeed!
760i is on my next to have list. awesome from corsair again
F’ing marvellous, I was hoping these would be as good as the AX1200i, which no one needs. 850W might be on my ‘to get list’ before the end of year.
platinum is the future ! im quite happy with my older corsair unit, but maybe for my new build in the new year.
classy indeed. id be tempted, especially as my current thermaltake PSU is as loud as a garden strimmer under load. fan must be bollocked in my own.
These are expensive however, but all platinum supplies are, its the nature of the high end game.
ordererd the 750w 🙂
fab indeed. was almost going to get the 1200 earlier this year then my car died and I ended up blowing all my money on that.
these are really good, never heard of flextronics. sounds like a sex aid company
Is there really any benefit from using mult rail or is it just a complete gimmick? I can understand on a 1000W+ maybe, but 760W?
Just bought one. It is a superb PSU and worth the price.
