The Cooler Master V Platinum V2 1600W ATX 3.1 PSU Review: Quiet Giant

RMAG news

Continuing our ongoing look at the latest-generation ATX 3.1 power supplies, today we are examining Cooler Master’s V Platinum 1600 V2, a recent addition to the company’s expansive PSU lineup.

The V Platinum 1600 V2 is designed to cater to top-end gaming and workstation PCs while offering maximum compatibility with modern ATX directives. And while it boasts a massive 1600 Watt output and a long list of features, the V is a workhorse of a power supply rather than a flagship; Cooler Master is aiming the PSU at budget-conscious users who can’t justify spending top dollar, but whom none the less need a powerful and relatively efficient (80PLUS Platinum) power supply.

So often we see PSU vendors go for broke on their high-wattage units, since there’s a lot of overlap there with the premium market, so it will be interesting to see what Cooler Master can do with a slightly more modest bill of materials.
