    Your video is so damn good man. The only person on YT who fully explains things and shows every cable and component in detail with examples. Every other video I've tried searching for barely has the camera to show anything significant and moves everything around too fast and then doesn't explain anything significant. I'm totally glazing, but I'm very impressed with this video!!

    Thank you so much for what you do! It was my first build (8 year upgrade, had help the first time) and took me 14 hours but I think he's handsome as hell kit and all.

I am now confident on my purchase decision. You helped me by explaining with precise details. After going through countless other frustrating and hard to understand PSU videos I was left more confused. I would name names but that wouldn't be very ethical. Amazing how small channels get the job done. SUBBED!

    I thought the melting problem was from people using the adapter included with the GPU instead of just buying a new PSU. I have always said if you need the adapter provided, then don't buy it until you have the psu or whatever needed to make that adapter pointless. Though great help, I was wondering why they call it a 16 pin connector when there is only 12 pins on the gpu

    Could not have uploaded this at a better time, I finished my first build yesterday (still waiting on gpu to arrive) and I couldn’t find anything helpful online for Corsair PSUs and I got the hx1200. I was worried about whether or not I put the cables into the psu correctly and this video shows me that I did
    If you haven’t already I would HIGHLY recommend a video on a Corsair HX1000 or HX1200 platinum because the plugs are in 3 rows instead of 2 like most of the PSUs that I’ve seen and I think it would be appreciated because I have seen tons of people asking similar questions to what I had when I was trying to figure out how to properly connect the cables to it.

      So if you want to make sure you get 100% power use 3 cables for the 3 connections.
      Although from my understanding its not a huge performance difference.

I replaced the fan in my RM1000e because it has horrible whirring... it's driving me insane, especially since it speeds up, stops, speeds up, stops etc etc, every 2 minutes or so. I don't care about warranty since I have a couple PSU's laying around (honestly I do) but man what a disaster... and it has coil whine, not super loud, but loud enough to be noticable from 1 foot or less.
      In short: Get the RM850x if you care about silence and enough wattage, even with a 4090 it should be okay.

    Warning! AVOID the RMe series folks, they're known for having loud fan noise & coilwhine despite them marketing them as ''quiet''.
    i have had three of them a while ago (RMA'd them twice) and they all had the same problem, they were even BRAND NEW. Dont let the affordable price fool you, whetever its on sale or not.
    If you want to have a good reliable PSU from Corsair, go for the more expensive (sadly) RMx series and NOT NOT NOT RMe!!
    Saving you from annoying problems!!
