Corsair's 1000W supply to get triple-SLI certification

Corsair says its 1kW power supply will be the first to get Nvidia’s stamp of approval for triple-SLI use.

The HX1000W is essentially two 500W power supplies in one box and the combined current provides a massive 960W over the 12V rail, which the CPU and graphics cards use.

Corsair says the HX1000W can supply a full 1000W at 50°C, while many other manufacturers base their figures on 40°C testing. It reckons many other companies would call the HX1000W a 1200W supply if they sold it.

It’s modular in design, so it’ll be easy to use if you’re building a PC, and comes with a five year warranty.
