EVGA Supernova 1000 P3, 80 Plus Platinum 1000W, Fully Modular, Eco Mode with FDB Fan, Includes Power ON Self Tester, Compact 180mm Size, Power Supply 220-P3-1000-X1

This review is for the 650 Platinum power supply. After the original bronze level EVGA power supply went out after about 4.5 years of continuous 24/7 use in a security camera server, I decide to get something a little more heavy-duty component wise and purchased this platinum level power supply. This power supply is definitely a step up from the previous bronze power supply, which provided 500 watts of continuous power. This one is not only capable of 650 watts but has a much better warranty at 10 years versus 3 for the bronze one. This is a really good quality power supply that feels very solid. Best of all this is a modular power supply making it easier to customize as my previous power supply was not. Included are tons of different cables for most applications as well as a power supply tester. To confirm my paper clip test on my previous power supply, the tester confirmed my previous PS had gone out. The power supply was easy to put into the case and connected easily. It didn’t like some of my cables from another PS that I was using as a temporary unit until I got this one installed and I had to switch to the new ones that came with the PS, but otherwise I had no major issue with the installation. When the PS is powered up the fan is silent and works efficiently. The eco mode (enabled by a switch on the PS) seems to work fine on my camera server and I like the fact that it saves some wear and tear on the PS. So far, no problems with the PS. I think it is a bit expensive, but as long as it lasts through its 10-year warranty, I will be satisfied with it. I will update my review with any long-term durability issues as this will be running continuously for the camera computer server. 5 stars

I purchased the EVGA fully-modular 1000watt platinum power supply for $185. I previously had a semi-modular SeaSonic PSU that worked very well and still does to this day. I upgraded because I wanted to add another 780ti to my system and needed the extra juice as well as cleaner wiring offered from a fully-modular supply to allow for better cooling on the bottom GPU. I picked EVGA because it is one of the most reputable computer part makers in the business. (I buy nothing but EVGA graphics cards, as they offer wonderful warranties and are renowned for their outstanding and prompt customer service.) This power supply is no different and comes with a 10 year warranty. Knowing EVGA, I have no doubt that they will take care of the issue in the unlikely scenario that I actually have an issue. While the PSU is on the expensive side, this is because of the 1000 watt capability which is on par with other manufacturers such as Antic, Rosewill, and SeaSonic (which as actually considerably more expensive at the 1000 watt power bracket.) The PSU comes nicely packaged with a carrying case and many connectors (some red, some black.) I ran the red power connectors to my GPUs and it looks very nice. The wires look to be of very good, solid quality. The wires also have adequate length, allowing me to route them properly and get the CPU connector tucked away nicely, which I did not have enough length to do on my previous seasonic PSU. The 1000 watts of power are more than adequate to run dual sli 780tis at stock voltage (which you probably only need about an 800-850 watt PSU to do,) but it gives you plenty of headroom to turn up the voltage if need-be. The PSU runs very quietly and I cannot hear it over my case fans (even on the low setting, which is actually very quiet.) The PSU also has an eco-mode, which can be turned on by flipping a switch on the back of the power supply close to the power button. I have not turned this feature on at all, but I believe it turns on the fans less often or maybe only when needed rather than keeping them on all the time. With the platinum efficiency of this power supply, the damage on the electricity bill is already minimized, and this eco-mode is an available feature for those that might want to use it. Overall this is a very good power supply, well worth its asking price and more than capable of its claims. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to run multiple GPU setups and I cannot imagine that the less powerful PSUs in EVGA's lineup are any less worthy.

I bought this about 5 months ago now and it has been on basically constantly since installation as I use it in one of my mining/video encoding setups. Never had any trouble with it, I originally thought that the fan was going out on it 5 months into ownership but it turned out to be a GPU fan that was right next to the power supply upon further inspection. The unit comes with a 10-year warranty and you can extend that if you wish to do so with those sold from Amazon like I did since EVGA's warranty is limited, the extra policy covers accidental damage. So far it has had no trouble pulling ~500-750w 24/7 (read from a kill-a-watt unit) from the wall, just make sure to provide proper ventilation. I would also say that it is fairly quiet while having a huge 140mm (rough guess here) fan. When I have both GPUs mining and my CPU at 100% encoding video I cannot even hear the power source fan, of course, I can hear it if I turn all that stuff off but there are other case fans running at the same time too. At the end of the day, this is a solid unit with a warranty good enough to back up that statement alone without all the other info. They are willing to bet their unit will work for 10 years before having any problems. That says a lot on its own.

Por fin daré mi opinión sobre esta fuente de poder, la compre el día 26 de abril del 2016 , y puedo asegurar que es una de las mejores fuentes de poder que hasta la fecha cumple con la demanda de cualquier hardware de gama alta, cómprenla no se van arrepentir jamás. Hasta la fecha la sigo utilizando con un ryzen 9 5900x y asus x570-e , y funciona de maravilla, los componentes y la calidad de esta fuente de poder son de los mejores en el mercado esta clasificada como Tier 1. No se van arrepentir cómprenla.

No issues with EVGA PSUs so far. Good quality.

fast and good product

I had a Seasonic 850W PSU, and I thought it was working well. I am using an Intel Core i7 14700K, and a EVGA 3080 Ti. This supply was working well for about a year, but I started getting crashes. I'm not 100% sure it was the PSU. It could have been a bad connection, or perhaps I was overtaxing the supply. The GPU would crash, leaving the PC running but no display. I also have a UPS with a display, and it was saying I was not exceeding 700W while gaming, usually around 650. However, I do have a ton of RGB and combined with voltage spikes from the GPU during gaming it's entirely possible I was running too much for an 850W supply. I picked up this EVGA 1000W supply and installed it without any difficulty. Took about an hour. The system has not crashed once since. So far this has been a very stable PSU. I've had it for about a month and a half or two months now. I bought the P3 version because I read it is built by Superflower, who are supposed to be a very good OEM for power supplies. I hear the P5 units are not made by Superflower. With the results so far, I highly recommend this power supply.
