CXM uses a platform completely different from CX

this is the Gray label, only RM has a "black" label for the current model

expect tier a unless I find something off about it

it is, hardwarebusters = aris

there is info about them since. It's a CWT GPU, making it tier A multirail, since it's very similar to Bitfenix Whisper, Deepcool DQ-M (V1) and Enermax Revolution DF

hm... I've seen them show off a prototype before in I think 2019@computex took them a decent while

oh, of course some of these can be caused by different issues it's just that I took some out that were longer than "DOA" or alike. It's to give a view of the general picture

TL;DR Gigabyte is refusing to support a product they know to be problematic. This is as of the time of writing still in production with the same components. We haven't asked Gigabyte for a public statement. Most likely problem - Main FETs To start, a quote from Aristeidis Mpitziopoulos', which in this article will be referred to as Aris, review on Techpowerup about this very unit below. This is something alarming on it's own already. The main FETs on the power supply explode after having handled a heavy load. They didn't fail during the actual OPP/OCP testi

main FETs*

highpower #817, expected is tier b when we add it

from a very quick look it looks like a Greatwall EPS1250DA variation... which would likely place it in tier c

This thread is for questions around the list and possible additions to it, we have a whole forum for recommendations around specific cases

looks like a Greatwall to me... very similar to CX

Cooler master themselves and well... Aris' public testing if you want something more public

current batch has this issue fixed, so it's not an issue

correct

yes.. no... kinda... the japcap trend was because of the so-called "capacitor plague", which is already a debate on what caused it. But the main thing with Japanese caps is that it's more expensive to integrate since most PSU ODMs are in China and will have to import and store a big quantity of them, which because of them having to be under specific conditions, is really expensive. So you won't really see someone use cheap capacitors for that but that doesn't say that Chinese/Taiwanese/German/US companies can't make as good, if not better capacitors than Japanese and a

I'll even confirm this for you

or in this business... 100k

and it's really outdated... currently busy with other things
