Moar Power! Moar Cool!
There aren’t that many systems which need a 1600W PSU, but for those builds having a solid power supply is critical to ensuring stability under load. The Seasonic TX-1600 PRIME Noctua Edition is one solution to this need, offering 133A on it’s single 12V rail and a 80 PLUS Titanium/Cybenetics Lambda A++ efficiency rating. The shell of the PSU makes it obvious Noctua was involved, with their trademark brown shade prominently featured. It’s not just the aesthetics that Noctua contributed, the TX-1600 PRIME Noctua Edition contains a NF-A12x25 120mm fan under a custom grill, which is controlled by Seasonic’s advanced Digital Fan Control.
The Guru of 3D tested the TX-1600 PRIME Noctua Edition under load, including the 12VPWR connector and saw great results. If you are looking for a high wattage PSU that does not produce more than 31 dBA then this review is for you.
