The Guru of 3D posted a review on the Enermax Galaxy 1000W DXX PSU



The mother of all PSUs had an extreme makeover; and has arrived. This year you'll start seeing something new on PCs: An 8-pin power connector. Crazy you say? Well, what if I told you that an unnamed very soon to be released graphics card has both a 6-pin and 8-pin [convertible 6+2p (6/8p)] power connector. Crazy? Yes ... But it's the reality and luckily for the high-end freaks, there are power supplies that can manage that power draw extremely well. The Enermax Galaxy 1000 Watt PSU is such a device, and now it is updated towards version DXX (EGX1000EWL).

Quad-core, Dual Core CPUs, two Dual Core CPU's per mainboard dual graphics cards connected to your dual monitors, the sky is the limit. 1000 Watts PSU's do not sound that crazy anymore as they did two years ago. Agreed, a Kilowatt PSU right now is still overkill.

Let's startup the review and have a good look. In today's test we'll stress the PSU with a very stringent setup that for sure will shake the Galaxy (a little).
