CoolerMaster PSU Silent PRO GOLD 1200W
[RS-C00-80GA-D3]

№: ++970   Manufacturer: CoolerMaster

Specifications:

Ranging from the ever-efficient 600W all the way up to the 1200W power supply, the Silent Pro Gold will satisfy the energy cravings of any system. With a power efficiency rating of 90%, the Silent Pro Gold line meets the 80Plus Gold Standard. To achieve this goal, Cooler Master incorporates three visionary patents into this innovative design. The Hybrid Transformer™ incorporates the transformer with the heat sink, not only reducing the size by 25% over traditional transformers, but by keenly conducting heat, superiorly increasing efficiency. The Heat Transfer Technology™ crafted especially for powerful, demanding power units utilizes and L-shaped design to ingeniously route air flow by the heat sink, resulting in greater heat dissipation and therefore providing an optimal performance. The Hyper Path™ adeptly places the integrated circuits tightly to the transformers, shortening the path and creating a more direct energy channel, reducing the energy loss to nearly nothing. Combining these elements with the integrated active PFC with PWN controller, an intelligent 120/135 mm speed-adjustable fan, a powerful single rail engaging the most energy-greedy peripherals with ease, and countless other features, the Silent Pro Gold Series will handle all your computer power needs.

• Hybrid Transformer™:

  Specially design transformer to improve thermal and efficiency.

  Patent design transformer mount with heat sink, the size was reduced by up to 25% than the traditional transformer providing lesser energy consumption, while conducting the heat for better overall efficiency
  
  

• HTT™ - Heat Transfer technology:

  Patent design “L” shaped heat sink layout.

  This technology helps to guide the air flow along the heat sink to improve the air circulation for maximum performance.
  
  

• Hyper Path™:

  Patent design hyper link between IC and the relative components.

  Patent energy conversion design path provides super efficient connection from the transformer to components. The signal can be transfer directly without any energy loss.
  
  

• Single 12 V Power Rail
  Tackling challenges from the most power-intensive peripherals head on, this solitary 12 V power rail provides ample power and strong resistance to any overloading.
  
  

• Double-Layer EMI Filter
  Dual protection from electromagnetic interference, thus restraining noise and interference for greater protection for you and your connections.
  
  

• Intel Compliant
  ATX12V v 2.3 and EPS version 2.91 compliant.
  
  

• Intelligent Fan Speed Control
  Speed control makes the 120 mm fan adept for any user’s circumstances and need.
  
  

• Active PFC+ PWM Combo Controller
  Integrating this active controller will increase the efficiency of any computer, making PFC higher than 99%.
  
  

• Multiple Protection Design
  Over Voltage Protection (OVP), Under Voltage Protection (UVP), Over Power Protection (OPP), Over Temperature Protection (OTP), Short Circuit Protection (SCP) and Over Current Protection (OCP).
  
  

• Efficient Transformer
  - Adeptly holding power for minimal loss in the 5V standby voltage so the system is promptly up and ready from power on or sleep modes
  - Highly efficient design on par with 80Plus Gold requirements (90% typical).
  
  

• And More
  - Multiple updated connectors for all types of interfaces (PCIe, SATA etc.)

  - Simple cable management utilizing flat modular cables for increased airflow.

  - High reliability with an MBTF of at least 100,000 hours of use.
  - NVIDIA SLI-Ready Certified guarantees enough ample power and up-to date connectors for SLI graphics cards.
  - Japanese made capacitors

  - Five Year Warranty.
  

cluboc.net The CoolerMaster Silent Pro is an excellent power supply. Not all of us are going to have systems that require 1000+ watts of power, but it is good to see that Coolermaster is turning their attention to high quality 80 plus Gold certifications. Obtaining the 80 plus Gold certification is no small feat and I feel much better knowing that my power supply is as efficient as possible. Less waste is always good for the environment and you just can't argue with that.  Remember, heat is a by-product of wasted energy and we need all the help we can get keeping unwanted heat out of our computers.

What If Gaming The Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 1200W is simply one of the best 1200W we had the pleasure to test that remained at very cool temperatures and laughed at the most extreme Intel i7-980X system with Quad-SLI we could throw at it. The Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 1200W far exceeded expectations through the tests, remained silent as a key ingredient, and simply measured itself easily into a powerhouse power supply unit that is definitely worth the purchase not just in the real world, but also a consumer’s mind. » Details

overclockersclub.com The Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 1200W is still worthy of your consideration - it certainly performs better than the majority of power supplies out there, but it's not quite up there with the likes of Corsair, Thermaltake, and PC Power and Cooling. Motherboards are fairly robust animals and will quite happily run for years with the poorest quality power supplies of which the Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 1200W certainly isn't. If you are in need of a power supply for your next build/upgrade, or something to reliably power a couple of GTX 480s in SLI, then this power supply will certainly do the job. » Details

Tech Arkade Performance: This power supply performed very well in our testing. The single 12v rail only fluctuated a mere 1.7%, the 5v 1.2%, and the 3.3v line 0.04%. So, overall it puts out extremely accurate power and at the same time was very, very quiet and holds up to the Silent Pro name. Quality Quality wise, this is one of the most solid units I have ever owned. From the single rail design to the attention to detail, this is a very well planned and designed unit that was not subject to cheap components. Warranty Cooler Master provides a 5 year warranty on all the power supplies in the Silent Pro Gold series. » Details

thinkcomputers.org The Silent Pro Gold series is definitely a unit to consider for a high-end, power hungry computer. I don’t have information on the MSRP, but given the wattage and new technology, expect it to be above $200. 80PLUS Gold is a relatively new honor, so expect to pay for it for a while. Overall ThinkComputers gives the Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 1200W Power Supply an 8 out of 10 score. Pros: Stable High wattage Mostly modular 80PLUS Gold certified Plenty of connectivity » Details

ninjalane.com All things considered the Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 1200W can support quite a number of systems including high-end overclocking and gaming rigs.  The only real limitation comes in the form of PCI Express video card support, which is not a limitation at all. We have been conditioned to always assume we need one power lead per power connection on a video card. Given that this power supply uses two connections per lead you not only save on cabling but get instant 4 card support using the 2 additional modular leads. » Details
