This 1000 watt Corsair ATX 3.1 PSU can run powerful Nvidia RTX and AMD RX GPUs

If you’re planning a new PC build and need a reliable power supply that won’t choke under next‑gen graphics and other heavy loads, Corsair’s RM1000e ATX 3.1 PSU is currently priced at $130, which makes it a great purchase as it is the unit"s lowest price ever (purchase link under the specs table down below).

The headline feature is its promised 1000 watts of steady output with Intel ATX 3.1 certification and PCIe 5.1 compliance. That means you’re covered for the latest generation of graphics cards including those demanding the new 12V‑2x6 connector, and Corsair includes a native 600‑watt capable cable in the box.

The PSU comes with a single powerful +12 Volt rail that claims to deliver a continuous 83.3 amperes of current. Efficiency is rated per Cybenetics Gold standard, which is said to be stricter than 80 PLUS Gold ones, so you can expect around 90 percent efficiency under typical loads. That should essentially translate to less wasted heat and lower electricity bills. Noise levels should stay low under moderate loads.

The fully modular design means you only need to plug in the cables you need which should be really helpful with cable management in tighter mid‑tower cases. The technical specifications of the Corsair RM1000e are given in the table below:
