Corsair RM1000x PSU Review (2021 80+ Gold)

Inside we can see the NR140ML (12V, 0.27A) fan is installed with several plastic panels to direct airflow over specific components underneath.

CWT are the OEM of choice for this power supply – a long term partner for Corsair in the power supply sector. The CWT design is clean throughout with several substantial heatsinks to ensure components are adequately cooled. Soldering quality is fine throughout with no real noticeable issues.

The primary capacitors are 105c Japanese – specifically Nippon Chemi Con, from the KMW series. These are rated at 400V 680uF and 400V 470uF for a total of 1150uF. The power supply offers OCP, OPP, OTP, OVP, SCP and UVP protection.
