SEASONIC PLATINUM 1200 SMPS — PLATINUM SERIES 1200 WATT 80 PLUS® PLATINUM CERTIFICATION 

80 PLUS®Platinum

The higher the level of efficiency of the power supply, the less power gets wasted in the form of excess heat . The 80 PLUS® Platinum certification guarantees greater than 90 %, 92 % and 89 % efficiency at 20 %, 50 % and 100 % operating loads, respectively. The Seasonic Platinum Series represents the highest level of technology and efficiency achievement of Sea Sonic during its 40 years of commitment to engineering excellence.

Dual Copper Bars

Due to their increased diameter, pure copper bars carry high current much more effectively than the traditional copper strips. If the goal is to achieve high quality power conversion with stable power output and minimized loss, it is very important that power conduction in the high wattage area remains extremely efficient, because it also reduces impedance and minimizes voltage drop as the load increases.

No Negative Voltage Tolerance

Intel guidelines specify that the DC output voltages have to remain within the regulation range of +/- 5 %. However, power supply testers and reviewers prefer to have this allowance down to +/- 3 %. Seasonic has implemented and even stricter voltage regulation which entirely eliminates negative deviations and keeps voltage 80% tighter than Intel specifications and 66 % tighter than top reviewers recommend. The result of clean output power is quicker CPU response and a better overclocking performance.

Sanyo Denki Fan

The world-renowned Sanyo Denki ball bearing fans are made of the highest quality components to ensure ultra-low noise performance. The fan’s perfect balance and even rotations are achieved via the use of spoon-shaped, high-density plastic fan blades that are finished off with smoothed leading edges. Sanyo Denki fans are known for their strict tolerance ball bearings and precision copper axels. Instead of the industry standard of two balancing points they use three points to strengthen the mount and further stabilize the blade.
