Could this be the daddy of all high power PSUs?
It's no secret that Corsair's HX Series of power supply units are just about as good as it gets. In our 2006 shootout of 600-700W PSUs, HEXUS' Paul Dutton deemed Corsair's HX620W power supply "the only product in our group test that would have had made me part with my hard-earned".
That's some pretty big praise and rightfully so, just about everyone has come to expect a lot from Corsair's HX series and it delivers in both 520W and 620W models.
But what about those who eat up power for breakfast? Well, not to worry, you wattage-munching enthusiasts will soon have a new HX to play with, the HX1000 and yep, that means 1000 watts of goodness.
Other than its wattage, details so far are few and far between. It will feature modular cables, and we'll expect the stability and performance we've seen in the previous two HX PSUs but Corsair's official statement on the HX1000 simply reads:
"The HX1000W joins the family of well received HX Series Enthusiast Grade Power Supplies known for their rock solid stability, enhanced modular cable design and high efficiency. The Corsair HX1000W Power Supply sets a new standard by which all other high wattage power supplies will be judged."
Clearly, Corsair isn't shy in declaring the HX1000 the new grand-daddy. HEXUS will be on hand at CeBIT from March 4th - 9th and we'll be eager to get a closer look at Corsair's supposed latest-greatest.
No news on pricing just yet.
