Best 99$ power supply

Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2022

This power supply has very responsive RGBA lights. The RGB cord is included but I suggest to connect the cord before you install it of course you don't need to plug it in but if you don't plug in the RGB cord it will constantly be red, although I have quite articulating fingers it was extremely hard to plug in. The cables that came with this power supply do not feel extremely high quality unlike the power supply itself, the cords also do not bend that much but they look pretty good. I previously bought a 50$ power supply that didn't work for my motherboard that supports a core i7 10 to 11 gen. This power supply comes with stuff to organize your cables and all the cables are included also the hard drive power cable is the same as the fan power cable. My conclusion is if you want a power supply for your PC so you can play Roblox then get this.

I like it except…

Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2022

High quality material. I really like the design its really good. It has some kind of mirror like material. There are few tbings to point out. First is the connectors are all close together which bother some people since it doesnt make it any easier to plug and unplug cables. The benefit is that it packs more ports so if you have alot of internal devices, double GPUs this might be a good PSU to consider. If you prefer fewer components like I do, I suggest another PSU that has fewer connectors. The other thing I want to point out which is a gripe for me is the proprietary connectors. You cant use your existing cables and that might be a deal breaker for some. I replaced my 500w PSU and bought two 750s in case I ran into any problems, this ROG model and another. While I was testing the PSUs to find out which one I would keep, my fingertips painfully discovered that some of the cables were not connecting. So I took cables from the two PSUs and plugged them into my old 500w and sure enough it was the ROG cables that would not connect. This almost doubled my work in testing so for that reason alone, I would say unless you really love the ROG brand and trust me I dont fault people for that, then I recommend going with another PSU. Overall I really love this PSU but its not for everyone even if you love ROG. Hope this review helped!

A Good PSU in Suspect Condition

Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2022

Size: 1200WStyle: 80+ PlatinumPattern Name: Power SupplyVerified Purchase

The PSU arrived on the same day as ordered. It was shipped in an Amazon bag, but the box itself had been stored in an open condition (no exterior cellophane wrap). In spite of this, there was no evidence of tampering within the box, and all components were present. The PSU was wrapped in an anti-static bag inside a second box, but there was dust and insects on the inside. It was easy enough to blast these out with air, but slightly annoying after spending 300+ on it. I suspect this may have been from the factory.
With the exception of that, the PSU performs fine. The real selling point here for me is the platinum rating and the side panel wattage indicator.

Great replacement

This replaced aCorsair 1200w ps that was failing. The cables are very sturdy and take up less room in my case so better air flow. The only thing off about it is the LED screen is upside down. The way they have it designed, for the LED to be right side up the fan would be blowing into the case instead of down and out of it.

Great Performance, Elegant Aesthetics from ASUS!

Over the course of the last 6 months, I have slowly pieced together components for a new personal gaming PC rig. Between finding stuff through either Amazon or Newegg, waiting for stuff to slowly go on sale or come down close to the MSRP, was like fingernails on a chalkboard. Unfortunately, CoVid-19 has caused a lot of price gouging in various items, especially in the market of PSUs.
When Amazon Prime day 2020 finally came around, I was excited to see what various computer components would be available. The last two items on my list were a PSU and RAM, of which the latter I ended up finding a good buy on a 32g RAM kit. However, I wasn't so lucky on finding the exact PSU to fit my needs. Not wanting to wait until Black Friday, I decided to bite the bullet and to find a top tier PSU, even if I had to splurge on it. I have already spent too much time trying to piece together components that I needed to build this computer incase something didn't work right out of the box.
Since most of the components in my new gaming PC were from ASUS, this PSU caught my eye. I figured that it would tie into the rest of the components nicely, even though the price was about $30 more than I would have liked to have paid, but was it really worth the $155?? (...this PSU looks so pretty!!) After tossing and turning a few night, and seeing that it was quickly going out of stock, I went ahead and bought this bad boy.
On the other hand, not to let you guys think this was an impulse buy, I did some extensive research on this PSU. First off, this particular model won't be found on any current heirarchy chart as ASUS uses another famous and good company that makes really great PSUs: Seasonic. Yup that's right, this uses a modified version of Seasonic's Focus Plus Gold series, which is considered a top end PSU. Secondly, the 10 year warranty was another reason that I knew this was a good buy as well.
After waiting four days for this PSU to come in the mail (and practically losing sleep over it cause I was so excited to finally build my computer) I finally couldn't wait to rip the package open to see all what was inside. What I found was: The PSU itself (duh!), a translucent ziplock baggie with some nice magnets to either put on the PSU, PSU shroud or chassis of your PC case, some small stickers to place on the I/O side of the PSU, the installation booklet, some velcro strips, four screws, and in a separate, sleek looking nylon bag, all the cables necessary to hook up your components to your motherboard, including two SATA cables with four headers and a molex cable. The cables themselves are sleeved as a whole (not individually sleeved) in a sturdy, black nylon material and there are no "ketchup and mustard" wires insight. The SATA and the molex cables, however, are the standard flat black cables. These cables are also VERY long, considering that my case is a mid tower ATX case. These could probably easy reach components in a full tower cases using an eATX motherboard without the need for cable extensions. The cables are also very flexible, not stiff like some other PSU brands with flat cables.
When I finally got everything hooked up, and turned it on for the first time, it was beautiful. Even though this PSU has a 0 dB button, with it turned off (the fan constantly running) the fan is virtually silent.
In the end, I definitely don't feel guilty splurging on purchasing this product. I definitely recommend ASUS PSU to anyone that wants to add elegance and a reliable PSU to their PC build. It may be a little pricer than some of the other PSUs in the same category, but I guarantee you won't regret it!

Got me a replacement!!!

I bought this couple months ago and when I 1st installed it my computer didn’t turn on. So after looking and hoping that this didn’t kill my GPU (3090 aorus extreme). I finally looked at the VGA cable since I saw my gpu 8pin blinking white. The VGA cable was messed up? Well I did a RMA and got a new one couple days later. And well did the same hook up and it worked out well! Don’t get me wrong but I don’t want my money to be wasted on a doa psu. I’m glad that Amazon has a 30 day return policy!
