Hi Tech Legion

Editors Choice - Hi Tech Legion

"EVGA cut no corners using the closest tolerance and best quality components available in the 1000 PS, and it is reflected in the performance. Regulation on all rails was excellent, with power delivery having almost no fluctuation under loads and never dropping below rated voltage on any rail. While ECO mode worked as intended, we found little need for it as the 1000 PS does live up to its “silent” title, and was never audible over case fans in load conditions, and with ECO disabled was still not audible under any condition."
