Water Cooling in a Obsidian Series 900D

Knight091 · Aug 15, 2013

Corsair did it once more. They made a great power supply with looks and tons of power and more.The build quality is great and I love the look and all. Can't wait to power it up after work today..

My storm trooper and his ride the Dewbacks will keep the PSU safe.....

nice yeeaaaaa.nice...I don't think its worth the price though. The evga supernova g2 1300w is a great psu ...even the ax1200.

Great none the less though. I think I will go 900d again..lol and painting the exterior white, with the inside black and yellow to match my mpower.

Let's hope your sample isn't as noisy as mine or it'll drive you nuts.

I'm personally waiting for the Super Flower Leadex.

O yes it is. The PSU is all digital and you have control over it with readings etc. You can set targets for fan speed and other things. It also way more power efficient than the PSU you are looking at.

That is why you control the fan speed with the software. You could have also had a bad fan in your PSU. Did you have the AX 1200i or the older AX1200?

go read the review over at jonny guru...seasonics can't be touched. in fact the seasonic psu is the only one to hold its platinum efficiency in all his testing. not to mention the most stable psu that they have ever tested is still the seasonic...I can't remember if it's the x 1250 or the platinum 1000 watt'er. I believe it's the x1250 model though as it is the most recent seasonic build.

Man trust me, this AX1200 unit is almost flawless, it's basically close to Seasonic.

not saying it's not but Seasonic is flawless...have you seen the reviews on each unit it releases. after each release the reviewers are wondering how are they going to top the current sample that they are reviewing.

springs113 · Aug 15, 2013

Hey Knight you need to update your system specs.

Flawless would mean 100% efficiency and 0% ripple :laugh:

I'm not knocking the PSU I just think he's paying for the digital part of the PSU. I certainly would take any of the ones mentioned in the pass couple post and if this did score 9.6 from jonnyguru, the one I ordered was 9.7 not Seasonic branded but (oem) so I took the plunge. The ax1200 is actually a better PSU when compared to the 1200i. I would take any of those PSU's including the EVGA. Can't knock any but just like knight's a corsair guy i'm a seasonic.

Seeing that I paid $109 for the v1000... I am a very happy camper.

radrok · Aug 15, 2013

I'm actually thinking about going double 520W fanless Seasonic.. lol

why

radrok · Aug 15, 2013

Cause I can't stand fan noises, unless it's a Noctua.

Seasonics man quietest fans used in the business...plus the hybrid mode

Knight091 · Aug 16, 2013

I have a problem. The PSU works but when I put the 24 pin into my board nothing. When I trip it with a paper clip it works as does everything hooked to the PSU. The board lights up like it is ready to start but nothing. Any help.

de.das.dude · Aug 16, 2013

something wrong with your board? or something wrong with the power button.

Because they use some of the best fans in their PSUs. Fans made by Sanyo Denki (San Ace). Most other PSU manufactures opt for Yate Loon fans in their PSUs which are either Ball or Sleeve bearing.

May not be the board, suffice to say it could definitely be the contact points of the psu and its cables. Make sure to unplug n re-plug them back in and that they are snug...only downside to modular.

Knight091 · Oct 16, 2013
