Deepcool PQ1000M (1000W PSU) review





Today we’re putting the new Deepcool PQ1000M power supply on our test bench. The company is rather known for making the chassis, coolers, and fans, but two power supplies were already covered on Guru3D. The first one was the DQ750-M back in 2018, a 750 Watt unit with an 80 Plus Gold certificate that earned the “Recommended” award. The second one was the DQ850-M-V2L which was reviewed in 2020, bringing, for example, the 10-year warranty (instead of 5-years), but on the other side – it was rather noisy in low-mid load. Another two years have passed (coincidence?), and the next unit from Deepcool is in our hands, again with more wattage (it looks like a rule).

Good to know before ordering that most of the manufacturers will need to adjust to a new ATX specification and Gen 5 PCIe GPU's, so really it’s not the best time to buy and invest. It also looks that with the upcoming new 4000-series and present 3000-series premium GPU’s that 1000W PSU’s are going to be the minimum order of the day and surely for the enthusiasts. I am also not sure who actually fabricates the PSU’s for Deepcool and will their new 1000W unit be able to satisfy the top-of-the-line 4000-series GPU’s which may exceed a clean 750W of power draw? Further in my judgement the new Deepcool 1000W is really nothing special and is not a particular stand-out in the market when compared to EVGA and or Seasonic! Even though as some report it being a ‘rebranded’ Seasonic product but cost-engineered or made cheaper to entice Deepcool revenue!

The OEM of this model is Seasonic, so I think I would trust it, even though the embarrassing typo NO for ON is there.

Do you trust a PSU that can't even spell ON correctly lol.
Decent review though but personally i'd take a platinum 850w over a 1000w gold but that's just me.
Am i correct in saying this is just a Seasonic PSU but with Deepcool branding? Like my RoG Thor 850W which is just a Seasonic Prime Plat 850 with a stupid RoG OLED screen that i can't even see in my Corsair 5000D airflow case.
I just wanted the
