Corsair Professional Series HX1050 Power Supply Unit Review
Jake Sedge / 13 years ago
In this hot load test we take the PSU out of an ideal scenario and put it in a more realistic one, the PSU has to work in an ambient temperature of around 40oC which is much higher than the temperature of a case. This tests the quality of the unit- temperatures that high are very unforgiving!
The HX1050 performs extremely well when exposed to heat which is probably due to the rated specifications being taken at 50 degrees. The unit suffers very little voltage drop (which is fortunate as it is quite low as it is!) and the enormous unholy efficiency takes a very minor hit.
