[LR] Corsair Announces World’s Most Advanced PC Power Supply - AX1200i Digital ATX PSU - Page 3

Looks good! I wonder when Johnnyguru will review it.

Have you guys looked at the new GS series too ? They released them a few days ago too, upgraded from 80 Plus to 80 Plus Bronze and they look awesome.

That could easily be solved if they added a line in the box saying "Featuring fanless operation up to 40% load (or whatever other load depending on the model) for quiet operation." It would even be beneficial from a marketing point of view.

Hmm, looks interesting. I too wonder how Seasonic is going to respond. The fanless operation is a nice touch.
Pew pew pew!

Yep, my 650 X doesn't turn on the fan until 20% load. All this did was push up the % load that it kicks on at. Besides, the PSU fan is the slowest turning fan in any system, so it's not like you'd hear it anyway even at 100%.
