There is no doubt that this modern CWT platform has proven itself in previous reviews, and the DeepCool PX1000G delivers good all round results. It is well put together and UK pricing is competitive for the high levels of power output.
The compact size ensures that this power supply will fit into a myriad of chassis without any installation issues.
Technically, the unit is very solid and no concerning issues were found during testing. It handled the cross load test well, and load regulation was solid, if not class leading. Ripple suppression is a very strong point of the supply with all rails falling well within industry rated parameters.
The only noticeable point to raise would be the high levels of noise under greater loads. The fan profile of this unit is very aggressive, and while this ensures good airflow when loads hit 600 watts and higher, it will be heard over many modern low noise system fans. At around 550 watts load or less, fan noise is less of an issue, and not a concern. Everyone has a different tolerance to fan noise, however I feel a slightly more tweaked, less aggressive profile would have worked in favour for the overall experience.
As stated earlier in the review according to sales documentation we received from DeepCool they are offering the units in either black or at a £10 premium in white. SCAN have the black version listed at £179.99 HERE but the white version shows NEW but EOL HERE. We can only assume this is a placeholder and SCAN are awaiting stock. If we get updates on the pricing and white availability we will update this page later. In closing, pricing seems competitive given the nature of the market in 2023.
The fully modular design, 105c rated Japanese primary stage capacitors, high levels of efficiency and 10 year warranty are sure to give peace of mind to anyone concerning a purchase.
