Lepa is readying a new line of high-wattage PSUs, for high-end gaming desktop and workstation builds, which feature multiple graphics cards, and maybe even multi-socket processors. Named MaxPlatinum, these PSUs will come in two variants, the P1050M, and the P1700M, featuring 1050W and 1375W/1700W capacities, respectively. While the P1050M offers 1050W in both 115VAC and 230VAC areas, the P1700M is a different beast. When plugged into 230VAC (eg: EMEAI, APAC), the unit offers 1700W of continuous power, but just 1375W, when plugged into 115VAC (eg: North America, Japan). Both units boast of 80 Plus Platinum efficiency ratings, as their names suggest.

The P1050M comes with enough cabling for systems with up to three high-end graphics cards. Its cabling includes a 24-pin ATX, two 8-pin EPS, six 6+2 pin PCIe, twelve SATA, eight Molex, and one Berg. The P1700M, on the other hand, is loaded for bear, with 24-pin ATX, two 8-pin EPS, eight 6+2 pin PCIe in the P1375M (North America and Japan-specific variant); ten 6+2 pin PCIe in the P1700M (EMEAI, APAC variant), twelve SATA, eight Molex, and one Berg. The P1050M features a four +12V rail design, while the P1375M/P1700M features a six-rail one. Both units are originally manufactured by Enermax. Lepa didn't announce availability.
