The Corsair RM1000x measures 150 mm x 85 mm x 160 mm (WxHxD) and it weighs around 1.8KG. These physical dimensions will suit any ATX chassis on the market today.
The fan is protected behind a grille, which offers plenty of airflow capabilities. The 140mm unit is marked as a high grade FDB (fluid dynamic bearing) fan. We will have a closer look at the fan when we open the power supply shortly.
The modular bay is split into three sections – seen in the image above. These are clearly labelled for ease of installation.
The other side of the power supply houses the power cable and switch along with the fan control knob. This allows the end user to tweak fan speeds under lighter and moderate loads and you can even disable it completely at low loads to reduce noise levels.
The RM1000x delivers 20A to both +3.3V and +5V rails. The primary +12V rail can handle up to 83.3A – this is an increase from the 70.8A of the RM850x.
