Corsair RMi Series 1000W Review


AS7V0780
Corsair box artwork is not hard to recognise and as I mentioned in the 750 watt review, I am not so keen on the yellow accenting.
AS7V0788
Some technical data is listed on the rear of the box including fan noise and efficiency levels.

Inside the box, the power supply is protected between two thick foam pads and it is wrapped inside a felt bag for further protection. We take a look at the power supply up close, on the next page.
AS7V0799
Corsair include a regional specific power cable, literature on the product and a bag of modular cabling.

cables
There are a mixture of sleeved and flat ribbon cables included with the RMi power supply and a total of eight PCIe power cables with the 1000watt unit – ideal for a Tri or quad SLI or Crossfire system build. If you are running dual R9 295X2 graphics cards, we recommend a 1,500 watt power supply.

    I guess this should be enough to power up 4 way 980s?

  2. ideally you might want to aim for 1250W. 1000W should handle it, but you are likely going to be running at 80% load all the time. A quality 1250 Watt PSU will be more in the sweet zone for efficiency and reduced sustained demand on the caps.

  4. I have this for my new pc. 5820k asrock extreme4 980 ti 32gb ram at 2166 or 2400 default plug and tting W/o xmp profi , but ram rated 3000. Without any oc, i run hdmi cable on a samsung tv. I placed all the contors in the part with the cooler, motherboard connector pce and cpu pins. I get coil whine when i game. Most sounds are made by he psu. What shall i do? Everything runs good and cold and the psu cooler doesnt turn on at all. I hear more coil whine than coolers. I curently built it on a cartoon box, i wait for the case to come tomorrow.
    I do not have internet home, i just installed windows and gta5 and it works great. I have an 960 4gb oc edition, when change the 980 ti with it the 960 doesnt have coil whine as with the 980 ti, at least not as notifiable. Shall i use 2 cables or 1 for the power hungry kfa2 hof 980 ti 2×8 pin? Where shall place the type4 on the back of the psu or it doesn’t matter?
