Recommendation for PSU with appropriate size
Recommendation for PSU with appropriate size
Hi, just reaching out again for some assistance this time regarding a PSU. I’m aiming for something around 1300W or higher and prefer a compact design since my current Corsair model is an HX 1000 which fits well with my setup but I’m considering upgrading or downsizing. I need more power for upcoming GPUs, CPUs, and I’d like a smaller form factor—though the HX1000 is around 180mm or 200mm, I really want something more compact and high-quality. I’ve checked the Master V1300, which is an SFX model but I’m not fully convinced about it being a good choice from a PSU manufacturer’s perspective. I’m also hesitant about using the DSI chaining PCIe setup for my 7900XT Red Devil 3. Lastly, an ATX 3.0 with the 12VHPWR would be perfect if it supports future Nvidia or even AMD GPUs, and I don’t have much money to spend! Any advice would be really appreciated.
Consider the Corsair SF1000L. It offers good performance with low noise at up to 50% load, compact size and ATX3.0 form factor. Being an SFX-L model, it provides a depth of 125mm.
The Asus ROG Loki 1000w is another SFX-L option, quieter during higher loads.
Another choice is the FSP Hydro Ti Pro 1000w, currently the top 1000w with efficient titanium construction and a depth of 150mm.
The NZXT C1200 Gold V2 also features a 150mm depth.
If you're looking for something more affordable, the Enermax Revolution DF X 1050w is likely your best bet, with a depth of 140mm.
The specifications of your device support a 220mm PSU length in ATX format.
Are you considering another case for replacement?
For your existing unit, the Seasonic Vertex GX-1200 (160mm) with a 12-year warranty is available:

Thank you for your feedback. It’s not about what I require; my HX 1000 Corsair is exactly what I need right now and it’s performing perfectly.
I’m considering a smaller PSU with higher wattage, but then the point of spending on 1000W becomes unclear since I already have enough capacity.
My main goal is to explore ideas I might not have considered before.
I’ve checked the Be Quiet Dark Power Pro 13 1600W—though money isn’t the focus, it’s about finding something that extends my lifespan and supports next-generation needs.
It’s just too big for the cases I’m currently evaluating, which is why I keep adjusting my requirements.
If I could find a reputable 1500W 175mm PSU, I’d be happy to take your money.
Maybe 1300 or 1200 watts could be the best choice, but I’ll keep an eye out for better options!
