SAPPHIRE PURE PSU 1250W AWARD WINNING on Nexthardware.com Italy

Thorough and detailed tests made with specific machinery, for a review like few others.
And SAPPHIRE PSU win a 5/5 stars award!

"Excellent results for a power supply of this power, even higher than those found in the review of the Enermax brother. The difference in results is probably attributable to the different test conditions, not so much to particular manufacturing differences..." "...We can declare the PURE 1250 in line with the 80PLUS specifics Silver if plugged in Italian 230VAC..."

"That Sapphire is the undisputed queen of graphics solutions ATI / AMD is something well known, we can not say is equally famous in the field of power supplies. With the Sapphire PURE line fits firmly in Hi-End."

SAPPHIRE PURE PSU Family 80Plus Certified


Good quality PSUs are intrinsically linked to gaming, workstation, and the over-clocking markets. Customers who push their PCs to the extreme need to optimize their systems without worrying about load, system crashes, frying their components, or power surges/sags.
80PLUS Certified
All SAPPHIRE psu compliant with 80PLUS standard, that means reaching more than 80% efficiency of over 80%
PSU Peak ‘Rated’ Power – What it means
Other PSUs are designed to provide their full ‘rated’ power at an internal temperature of 25~30°C. But the internal temperature of most systems is 35~45°C or more, depending on how the system is used. Under real life condi- tions, these PSUs might well be unstable at best or fail completely if asked to produce their rated output. Is this really fair? SAPPHIRE’s PSUs are rated at full power output (approximately 50°C); a much more realistic rating.
