VERTEX ATX 3.0 PSU owners have even more reason to feel confident in their purchase as Seasonic upgrades their warranties to 12 years. Seasonic upgrading warranties is somewhat of an unusual turn of events in the electronics industry where some products have had their warranty coverage reduced over the years from lifetime to 10 years, 2 years, or less so it’s refreshing to see a company that already has a solid reputation for quality products to take their support a step further.
The VERTEX series was announced in 2022, and was on prominent display at CES 2022 where our own David Schroth visited, and also happens to be one of the seemingly few ATX 3.0 power supplies available at above 1000 W with an 80 plus Platinum rating. This too, as Seasonic upgrades the VERTEX warranties, is something potential shoppers should be aware of when thinking about the needs of power-hungry CPUs and GPUs. Ther VERTEX series is available in wattages ranging from 750W up to 1200W, and depending on the model, in black or white versions.
“VERTEX, the first Seasonic ATX 3.0 power supply on the market, has received widespread accolades from reviewers and much appreciation and positive feedback from its customers during 2023.
Sea Sonic is committed to placing the continued trust of its customers as its priority by manufacturing highly reliable power supplies and providing top-level customer support. For this reason, effective immediately, the factory warranty on all Seasonic VERTEX series power supplies will be upgraded from the current 10 years to an industry-leading period of 12 years worldwide. This upgrade includes all VERTEX units that have already been sold prior to today’s date. The calculation of the warranty period starts on the date of the original purchase. All other warranty terms apply as they did before.
This important change not only demonstrates Sea Sonic’s high level of appreciation to its customers, but it also attests to the company’s confidence in the high quality of its own products.“
“The new VERTEX Series units will provide 1200 W / 1000 W / 850 W and 750 Watts of true power in both Platinum and Gold levels of efficiency, with all the best features you can expect from a Seasonic power supply: – Fully compatible with ATX 3.0 and PCIe 5.0 standards – Full modularity for the best cable management options: – Added 12VHPWR cable to comply with the new graphic cards – 135mm Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) fan for quiet operation – Seasonic Hybrid Silent Fan Control for optimal cooling – Complete protection features: OPP / OVP / UVP / SCP / OCP / OTP – 12 years warranty – our commitment to high quality“

As a child of the 70’s I was part of the many who became enthralled by the video arcade invasion of the 1980’s. Saving money from various odd jobs I purchased my first computer from a friend of my dad, a used Atari 400, around 1982. Eventually it would end up being a lifelong passion of upgrading and modifying equipment that, of course, led into a career in IT support.
