OCZ Fatal1ty 1000W Gold Certified PSU

OK -- so I need to make a confession first. Whenever a manufacturer is tagging their product with say Fatal1ty, then my neckhair grows inwards. A pro-gamer with little understanding of actual hardware gets his name tagged onto a product. In the past I already mentioned this. And let's be honest, who really knows or even cares about Fatal1ty outside of the USA these days? That said, OCZ did something interesting. If we forget about the Fatal1ty branding, then they did come up with a product that is appealing to the masses. A good 1000W (kilowatt) PSU, modular, good looks and fine sleeved cabling is what the product we test today all about.

Next to that energy efficient models are a trend. Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum is, however the upper stack in hardware is expensive. This product comes with a Gold certification, and that's pretty dandy efficiency.

The power supply is on the market for a little while now already and it one of the more popular models. It offers gold efficiency, a single 12V rail. The PSU itself is modular has good looks and something you can appreciate for those of you with a side panel window in their chassis. Being 1000W and with all the aforementioned features the PSU is priced in the 190 EUR range here in the Netherlands. To top it off, OCZ even gives this PSU a 5 year carry in warranty.

Offered 550, 750 and 1000 Watt (as tested today) have a peek and let's head onwards into the review.
