• Overclock HQ Editors Choice on Sparkle Computer 1250W Gold Class Power Supply

Overclock HQ has awarded " Editors Choice" on Sparkle 1250W Gold Class Power Supply.

Conclusion:

I have reviewed a lot of power supplies over the years but I gotta say this is the first one I have used with 6 12v rails. The Sparkle 1250W Gold Series Power Supply is by far one of the best PSU's I have ever used. The features in themselves are more than just a little impressive but what is most impressive is the almost zero fluctuation between load and idle.

Granted this power comes at a price but they have eased the pain a little by including $100 voucher for some killer games which should ease your pain a little. Considering most power supplies in this class are around this price point and higher I think the people at Sparkle are pretty smart to toss in a little bonus for the gamers out there. If I am looking at two PSU's with similar specs and one is tossing extra swag the decision is easy.

Would I recommend this power supply? Yes, maybe not to everyone, but if you are a serious gamer in need of serious power I strongly suggest picking up one of these for yourself. On the other hand if you are still sporting your grandmas hand me down emachine then I would suggest saving your $349+ for some better hardware upgrades.

Pros:

• 6 - Count Them - 6 12v Rails
• 3 Stage AC EMC Filtering for That Clean Power Smell
• Modular
• 80+ GOLD Certified Means a Less Painful Power Bill
• Post Shutdown Cooling Will Prolong Your PSU's Life
• Fan is Actually Quite Quiet for a 1250W
• Bonus Goodies
• 20A Per 12V Rail

Cons:

• None
