Corsair Launches New Lower Cost & Lower Wattage Digital Power Supplies

Corsair today announced the addition of four new AX series 80 PLUS Platinum rated modular power supply units (PSUs)the AX860i ($249) and AX760i ($229) digital PSUs, and the AX860 ($219) and AX760 ($199) analog PSUs. The new AX860i and AX760i models bring the DSP-based innovations of the award-winning AX1200i digital ATX PSU to PC gamers and enthusiasts that require a PSU in the range of 760 and 860 watts. The digitally-controlled power circuitry of the PSUs provide incredibly stable voltages, and exceptionally low ripple and noise. The digital design also contributes to the 80 PLUS Platinum certification and incredibly high energy-efficiency of up to 92%. The high efficiency also results in reduced heat, allowing the AX860i and AX760i to operate in a silent zero-RPM mode until the PSU load reaches 30% of the maximum power rating.
