From googling it appears these are platinum supplies. Doesn't really bother me either way as the power cost is not really that different. 1800 watt would be the top for 120V, is that what people are comparing?

Hello guys,

Well at first glance this PSU was promising, but after a few days of testings here are the issues with it.

- Announced as 2600w psu but is only 2x1200 (2400w)
- Rated as platinium but it's obviously HP gold psu's (according to serial/model numbers) (i also compared the same system plugged on this psu, and on a normal platinium psu and the 2-3% difference are here)
- I didn't experienced it myself because i don't have a rig that can pull more than 1400W, but it was reported it can be bad to maintain power above 1800w, for a 2400w psu it's not really good.
- The overall electronic quality of the PCB isn't very good, the cabling is OK, but the rest is a kinda sloppy (for this kind of price it's not THAT bad per se)

Other than that my 1400w rig seems to have behaved properly with it. But again i was using it only @about 60% load, that's not really pushing it.

Conclusion : it's not THAT bad of a price and performance for a 1800w gold rated psu, there is plenty of connectors and such, but only for the fact they lied about the product (2600w platinum) im sending back my unit. So it's back to amazon for me sadly.

Well maybe some are plat, the one i got weren't, so it's probably lottery.

Also i use 220v electrical outlets im in europe. But again i wasn't able to check this "limit" maybe it's BS.

I use similar ones. I only run it at around 1300W from the wall. The efficiency is about 94%. So it is quite good.
