Extreme PC projects in the area sometimes need extreme components. Is particularly acute for a stable and sufficient supply of electricity to large dimensions. The electricity demand for PCs is used by many yet always overestimated. For normal or well-equipped gaming PC you do not need 1000 watt power supply. But there are very well configurations (extreme Overclocking with SLI or Crossfire systems), the power hungry so the power supplies are such a good choice.



Such a network is part of the Corsair AX1200, which we detail in this review we looked at. The Corsair AX1200 is currently the largest power supply in the AX series of Corsair. The performance of the power supply is 1200 watts with specified and it also has a 80 Plus Gold certification.

These are charges that you will probably never achieve in practice.
