Enermax Revolution D.F. X 1650W PSU Review

The power supply is well protected during shipping. It is wrapped in a pretty good quality protective bag and sandwiched between two thick blocks of styrofoam.

The power supply is finished to very high levels, it is interesting to see Enermax have decided to adopt a rough grain like texture on the surface – this ensures fingerprints are never a problem and you can really get a good grip on the unit when installing. It's a small thing to note, but it really is such a nice idea.

While many power supplies with a massive output such as this are physically very large, Enermax have managed to keep this unit to 150mm x 170mm x 86mm, meaning it will fit into almost any ATX chassis (or bigger) on the market. The Seasonic Prime TX-1600 which we reviewed back in July 2023 for instance, is 150 mm x 210 mm x 85mm. It really is unusual to see a 1650 Watt power supply so compact.

One side is home to the modular bay, all clearly labelled into three rows for ease of install. At the very top is an RGB sync connector to pair up with compatible motherboards. The RGB switch is also positioned here.

The RGB switch rotates between Sunset, Grass, Ocean, Snow White, Sunrise, Sky Blue, Amethyst, Breath, Flow, Aurora, Pulse, Wave, Reverse modes. And Off – if you hate all things RGB.

The other side is home to the power panel, including the power switch. If you have never owned a very high output power supply, you will be wondering why the prongs on this unit are horizontally wide. You must use a C19 power cable with this PSU (this is supplied in the box). The C19 power cord's primary benefit over a standard power cable is the ability to safely deliver massive power levels.

Yes, you read that right – a 137.5 Amp delivery via the +12V rail. Both secondary +3.3V and +5V rails deliver 25 Amps.
