The Corsair HX and AX Series power supplies are a great choice to make your rig look cleaner and run more efficiently. Excellent Quality backed by a 5 to 7 year warranty makes choosing a power supply for your rig much easier.

We are going to start out with the biggest and baddest power supply currently on the market. (Yes I know there are higher wattage units, but this is the only one that can feasibly be run on a normal circuit 15 amp in America)


Yes boys and girls, this is the AX1500i. It is 80+ Titanium rated which means at it's peak effeciency, it runs at 94%. However, you aren't always going to be pulling 750 watts, so what it's efficiency across the board? A whopping 90% at any load . (According to jonnyguru.com)

Needless to say, this is an absolutely impressive PSU.

Next up in the AX series we have the AX1200i.



This PSU has been on the market for quite some time now. Back when a 1200w PSU only could dream of being Platinum rated. It has stood the test of time and is still a choice for a lot of enthusiasts. It has receieved numerous awards including. "Must Have" from Kitguru.net, "Best Hardware" from Guru3D, "EDitor's Choice from Vortez.net, "Editor's Choice" from TechPowerUp, "Wish List" from Hexus.net, and the ever so important, jonnyguru.com recommended

Lastly from the AX series we have the little brothers to the AX1200i. The AX860i, AX760i, AX860, and AX760. All five of these are the updated versions of the now Discontinued AX 80+ Gold rated series. The AX860i has received just as high accommodations as the AX1200i. It stays true to the AX name and it delivers what you would expect from Corsair' top tier PSUs.

Welcome to the HX Series!
These bad boys are Gold rated and are well received and reviewed units in this community and others.

HX1050



HX850



My first PSU that I bought in late 2013 was the HX850. Why did I buy that? Go to Newegg. It has some of the best reviews (above PSUs that have less than 50 reviews, why newegg insists to have it set up to where if it has one five start review it will be in the top of the "best rated" section... I will never know) and has been tried and tested by many reviewers. It has performed admirably for me, and still does!

Why not just make a Corsair PSU Club?
I thought I would be different and make only the modular kinds lol, Corsair has way too many psu's and alot of people on here have them, I would have to add 1000 members when I wake up lol, Do you like this club, like how it looks?

Nice clean look! You should add a Google Spreadsheet once you get more members. It's much easier to manage.

Silly me bought a TX850 for a mid-tower and now it's filled with cables lol

Theory, just a note to edit the wattage under the specs for the HX models. Currently it says "Power: 650 Watts" for each.
Thanks for pointing that out, long day lol
