Power Supply SFX PSU solid with sleeved cables?
- Thread starter Kit
- Start date
Interesting, I was wondering if there was an interest in Platinum 1000W units SFX-L or whether Platinum 700/750/800W SFX-L would do.
What price for a 1000W Platinum would folk like? Would sub £125exVat be of interest?. (think silverstone with a different sticker and no fancy box)
Cabling flat Ok or sleeved prefered?
Sorry it's not the answer to your question, you just reminded me that I should see what folk fancy in SFX.

I don't mind
From my perspective flat cabling is nearly always, in my experience, stiff and difficult to route in cramped SFF PC cases. It could be better now but I somehow doubt it.
I think 1000W is overkill in an SFF PC, 750W is more than enough. I think people would be more interested in a 750W Titanium efficiency PSU with sleeved cables.

As far as I know, Lian Li's SP750 does come with braided cables. Although their SATA, Molex cables in the set are not braided, only the CPU 8 Pin, 24 Pin and 2x PCIe cables.
Seasonic's Focus SPX, are also braided, but only the white unit.
Silverstone also sells braided cables as an optional purchase, for most, if not all of their PSUs (SFX and SFX-L included).

my niche dream would be a PSU that could support a 500-600w max load but have a ton of headroom so the fans never spin up. With a 3080 and 5800x I feel the sf750 fan does spin up from time to time. Cabling wise whatever is fine as long as its modular, vented or mesh panels make it hard to tell the difference anyway and i get custom cables anyway.
I recently built a SFX PC using a new Silverstone 700W PSU that has flat cables. They are a stiff. The best method I found for what I call "cable management" was to fold them back and forth ribbon style and wire the them. They are indeed more difficult to use.
As for 1000W SFX, I know of none, but EVGA makes an 850W SFX PSU. I am using it in my new build and cables are sleeved.
