XPG CYBERCORE II 1000W Platinum Power Supply Review

Packaging & Accessories

The XPG CYBERCORE II 1000W Platinum comes in a large, durable and brightly coloured box, so it does stand out. Plus, it has its mascot Mera on the front, which we see across their entire range of products now. You can see on the front its various features and efficiency ratings too, as well as the 1000W output. It’s good to see this unit has both an 80 Plus Platinum rating, but also rated Platinum from Cybernetics with an A rating, so I have high expectations of this unit.

Around the back, the white text is a little thin and hard to read, and I think a bolder font would have made more sense. however, the dimensions, cable lengths, efficiency ratings, amps per rail and even the fan curve are detailed here, which is great to see.

The PSU is nicely packed, with a separate canvas bag for the cable, and a protective foam material around the PSU itself.

It’s very well protected, and I love that you can keep spare cables in the handy storage bag.

All the cables are of high quality, with black sleeving, black heat wrap on the connectors and black connectors too, so they should blend into your system easily enough.

This includes a good quality 12VHPWR 600W cable for modern graphics cards.
