Cooler Master V Series 1000W PSU Review

Rating: 9.5.

Today we are looking at a power supply from Cooler Master , part of the high end V Series. This new range comprises a 700W, 850W and 1000W unit. The power supply we are reviewing today is firmly targeting the high end – it is a pure modular design with 80 Plus Gold Certification and is backed with a full 5 year warranty.

The Cooler Master V series is based on the excellent Seasonic KM3 platform, the same as the Corsair AX760 and AX860 models which we reviewed here back in November.

Cooler Master have worked with several OEM's over the years – Enhance springs to mind as their designs have featured in many big selling, budget oriented Cooler Master units. The shift to Seasonic in the high end makes sense for Cooler Master, we have reviewed many Seasonic power supplies in the last year and they have achieved a level of consistency that few others can equal.

We therefore expect this Cooler Master V Series 1000W to really deliver the goods today.

V1000 overview:

• Fully modular cable design incorporates a single 1000W +12V output that delivers up to 83A.
• 80 PLUS Gold certified: up to 93% efficiency @ 50% load.
• Silent 135 mm FDB fan for lower noise and longer lifespan.
• Eight PCI-E 6+2 pin connectors to support high-end GPUs.
• 100% high quality Japanese capacitor ensures performance and reliability.
• Reliable 5 year warranty.
