Corsair HX1500i Platinum Power Supply Review

Ripple
Corsair doesn’t officially mention anything in their marketing regarding the ripple noise, but based on the results seen in our testing, we have no idea why not! – As you can see below, the vast majority of the scores provided are exceptionally low with both the 3.3V and 5V rails only scoring a maximum of 4. And when you consider that the maximum allowed under EU standards is 50, you can clearly see just how cleanly the power is being delivered here!
These are, without a doubt, among some of the best ripple results we have ever encountered!
| Load (%) | 3.3V Ripple | 5V Ripple | 12V Ripple |
| 20 | 3.2 | 3.4 | 8 |
| 40 | 3 | 2.6 | 11.8 |
| 60 | 3.2 | 3 | 12 |
| 80 | 3.2 | 3.4 | 12 |
| 100 | 3.8 | 4 | 13.8 |
