INTRODUCTION
As I've mentioned before in my reviews it's a good thing that largely thanks to graphics cards people have been placing more weight on power supply units compared to the past (a lot more really). High quality and performance power supply units are not just much safer for your hardware components (compared to low quality and performance ones), under certain scenarios they can also affect stability and performance so spending a good amount on one is always recommended. GAMEMAX is a somewhat new player in the global market and since they recently released their ATX 3.1 & PCIe 5.1 compatible models I decided to take a closer look at one of their best models, the Rampage GX1050 Pro.
GAMEMAX stands as a premier brand renowned for its specialization in high-quality gaming PC peripherals. Our gaming peripherals are crafted with cutting-edge design and adhere to top-tier production standards, establishing them as highly esteemed choices among high-end DIY enthusiasts and gaming communities within the industry. GAMEMAX places a strong emphasis on eco-friendly technology, actively promoting and practicing environmental responsibility. GAMEMAX is dedicated to delivering the best gaming experience for all gaming enthusiasts, and will continue to innnovate and grow to fulfill our promise.
GAMEMAX currently has the Rampage GX line of power supply units available with two different 80 PLUS certifications so even though the 750/850W output models are 80 PLUS Gold certified the 1050/1200W models are 80 PLUS Platinum certified. All models are fully modular, ATX 3.1 & PCIe 5.1 compliant and available in both black and white colors and as for the 1050W variant which I have here with me today it features a single strong +12V rail (87.5Α) capable of delivering 100% of the units’ total power output (1050W), peak power output of no less than 1166W (although once again according to ATX 3.0/3.1 specs peak should now be up to over 2.3KW for up to 100ms duration – not something i can test however), 12V-2x6 connector (600W), 4 PCIe 6+2 connectors, active PFC, LLC Resonant-converter topology, DC-to-DC technology, temperature controlled 135mm fan and 100% Japanese capacitors. In terms of available protections, the Rampage GX1050 Pro is equipped with OVP (over-voltage), SCP (short-circuit), OPP (over-power), UVP (under-voltage), OCP (over-current), SIP (surge and inrush) and OTP (over-temperature) ones and as for warranty GAMEMAX covers it with a generous 10-year limited one. So, let's see what the GAMEMAX Rampage GX1050 Pro brings to the table.
