Enermax Platimax D.F. 750W 80+ Platinum PSU Review

Performance

Performance has been tested on the AMD Threadripper platform which contains the 1920X, 12-core processor, ASRock X399M Taichi motherboard, EVGA GTX1080Ti FE graphics card and 5x250GB Samsung 970 EVO SSD.

There are three tests at low, medium and maximum load. We were able to reach about 600W of constant load using our test rig after some overclocking. I guess that most of our readers won’t be able to reach so high load using more popular platforms and a single graphics card, even the GTX1080Ti.

Since there are pretty hot days then ambient temperature is 26°C/78.8°F. Tests in a closed case were made with limited airflow so the temperature is higher, about 32°C. Let’s say it’s a scenario of a user who isn’t aware that good airflow helps to keep components much cooler.

Our tests are showing pretty good results. Voltages were stable under low and higher load. Everything was also fully stable under long constant load at about 600W.

The higher temperature was not affecting our results much. It’s a good info especially when we live in a country with higher temperature during the year and we can’t have air conditioning. The Platimax D.F. is an enterprise-grade PSU which we can use at home for even the most demanding gaming PC.

One more thing worth to mention is how quiet the PSU works. Regardless if the load is low or high, we won’t really hear the fan. To keep it clean for longer without the need of removing the case, we can use Dust-Free technology so simply use the button on the back of the PSU. It’s great as long as we don’t have airflow blocked in any way ( filters, floor, side panels, …) as pushing the dust may end on sucking it back when PSU will be in standard mode.

I’m sure that all gamers will be fully satisfied with the Platimax D.F. 750W PSU. Even if I wish, I can’t really find any weak sides of this unit.
