Corsair have earned a respected place in the minds of the enthusiast user over the years having produced a wide range of quality memory, cases, headsets, solid state drives, keyboards and power supplies.

Today we look at one of their new power supplies in the ‘RM' range – the RM650. The company are also releasing a RM450, RM550, RM750, RM850 and RM1050 model to suit all systems. All of the RM range is 80 Plus Gold Certified, pure modular and is designed with low noise as a primary focus.

All of the new RM power supplies are Corsair Link ready – meaning you can monitor the power supply fan speed and +12V output from the desktop software. This will be a welcome addition for those people who already have a Corsair Link system set up on the system.

Corsair claim to have placed a focus on the noise characteristics of this range. Corsair say “We are  aware of our customers desire to have the quietest components, so we utilize a neutral third party sound lab to test the noise level of our designs using an industry standard testing methodology (ISO 7779:2010). The result is the NR135L PSU fan.”

The RM series of power supplies operate in zero RPM fan mode for up to 40% of the power supplies maximum load (at 25c room temperature). The idea is to ensure that the power supply is silent for most duties, such as surfing the net, checking email or social gaming. When the load gets higher the thermally controlled fan will gradually spin up, such as when gaming.
