But why is that important, you might wonder? Various power supplies on the market are sold as digital. Within that mindset of aiming for the best, digital power supplies also became a thing. Power supplies over the years have advanced into massively better efficiency, far better aesthetics, they've become more silent but also the quality of components (directly related to the lifespan of a power supply) has moved upwards significantly (if you stick to the more reputable brands of course). With a Platinum or Titanium PSU, you'd be using 520~540W depending on the PSU model). If your components consume 500W directly from the PSU, then with that 70% efficient product, you'd use and draw 650W from your wall power socket, the difference is the loss. But yes, that upper stack in hardware is more expensive, though. Efficiency does matter many years ago PSUs were rated as low as 70% efficient, meaning that 30% of the used power simply vanishes somewhere in that electric circuitry, while you are paying for it on that electricity bill. From the entire scope of certifications, Bronze, Silver but really Gold, Platinum, and at the end of the energy efficiency spectrum, Titanium is what you want.
#OMNIPAGE PRO 12 REVIEW PLUS#
The 1500 Watt PSU as tested today (yeah, we know it's a little extreme) has an 80 Plus Titanium certification, meaning at 50% load, this puppy is 96% efficient and even 94% at 20% of its capacity (base on 230V). Now I say give me a single rail any time of the day, but if you want a choice and prefer multi-rails, go for it we say.
Next to a bump in efficiency, the new Dark Power Pro 12 power supply and an all-digital design it allows you to switch (with an overclock locking key) in-between a single and multi-rail design. Meet the Seris 12 Pro in its 1500 Watt reviewing, a supermodular six 12V rails, energy-efficient product that remains silent.
