LC Power, Silverstone & Cooler Master PSUs: Clash of the Titans
 

Latest-gen graphics cards consume an awful lot of power, and that seems to increase with each generation. The same could be said for CPUs as well. A configuration that would be able to run the latest games in high resolutions often requires more than one graphics card. The usual 500 W PSU simply won’t be enough in such situations. We thought that it would be interesting to delve into PSUs that could power overclocked quad-core or hexa-core CPUs combined with two or more graphics cards. We borrowed a couple of PSUs from LC Power, namely Metatron series models of 1000 and 1200 W. The remaining two arrived from SilverStone and Cooler Master…


Yet as surprised as we were to see that LC1000 and Silent Pro M1000 passed the test, we were even more so by the fact that the stronger LC PSU cannot withhold the same test as these two, so we can’t recommend it for extreme situations such as this one.
