Enermax Galaxy 1000 Watt PSU review

The Enermax Galaxy 1000 Watt and it's standard cardboard box. I'm missing the sticker, mid-end, high-end products that EnerMax always had on their PSU's. Although there is one that stated 1000W Quad PCI_Express EXTREME. Well that should get you a pretty good impression of what's inside that box.

Also a sticker with the power distribution explained, which immediately makes the consumer very clear on what he or she is buying.

If you look at the label closely you'll notice that the PSU can peak at 1000 Watts, but if you add up the numbers ... it's even higher. Now that's power !

Enermax Galaxy 1000 Watt PSU review

The power supply comes with a power cable, mounting screws, manual, and pouch for all the modular cables. The PSU can accept 110 (USA) and 230 volts (Europe).

Enermax Galaxy 1000 Watt PSU review

A soft pouch is included for all the modular cables you don't use. A good way to keep the unused cables organized. Enermax will include several sets of cables.

3x SATA
3x 4 Pin Molex cabled with 3 molexes per cable
1x PCI-Express (two already mounted onto PSU)
2x 4 Pin Molex + FDD connector
2x2 12V for Future Quad CPU systems

Right then, the heart of the package, the PSU. It's nicely coated with a black metallic paint. On the upper side of the photo we see a grill for optimal airflow, behind it a 120mm fan. It's a smart fan so when there is low load you'll hardly hear it.

Enermax Liqtech 120X and 240 review
We test and review the all new Enermax Liqtech 120X and 240 Liquid coolers. Can it keep up with similar Asetek and compeeting products? Let's find out!...

Enermax Fulmo GT review
We review and test the Fulmo GT. Enermax has been going very strong with their power supply and fans. For a while now they also offer PC cases, and more recently they released what seems to be the biggest chassis I've ever laid my hands on. This chassis series has HPTX support for the bigger than biggest motherboards and some pretty cool features as well.

Enermax KW001 Briskie Keyboard mouse combo review
Keyboard kits come in all sizes, shapes and forms .. and that's next to a gazillion of manufacturers that offers them. Surprisingly enough a few weeks ago Enermax, the guys behind the best power supplies and the brightest fans also launched a keyboard/mouse combo. Briskie is all about value and as such for 25 USD/EUR you get a mouse and what we think is a very decent wireless RF keyboard.

Enermax Platimax 850W power supply review
Enermax always is able surprise us, they now have released the Platimax power supplies, that means a platinum certification and yeah .. that boils down to a 94% efficient product. Very few products get this certification. Today we'll grab a couple of older older supplies and see if what they claim is true, can we really save on energy. We fire off three PSU's at a P55 / Core i7 870 based system setup with a GeForce GTX 590. We then monitor power consumption in idle, CPU productivity (stress) mode and then lock into a gaming session.
