The RMx Series, a family of low-noise PC power supplies that maker Corsair has described as being one of the quietest and most reliable options available, is now available with several improvements, including ATX 3.1 compliance, a native ATX 12V-2×6 connector, and a manual fan speed control knob, Corsair has announced. These modular PSUs, which feature Gold-certified efficiency (up to 91%) and an A+ noise rating from Cybenetics, are cooled by a 140 mm Fluid-Dynamic Bearing fan with a magnetic dome structure and manual fan override knob.

Corsair on its new PSUs:

Available in 750W, 850W, and 1000W models, every RMx Series PSU is fully ATX 3.1 compliant and includes a native 12V-2×6 connector to support both current and future high-end GPUs. The 140mm FDB fan is PWM controlled and features a half-dome structure that reduces surface friction, resulting in less noise and an improved lifespan. The specially calculated fan curve ensures fanless operation at low loads and minimal noise as power ramps up. Users who wish to override this can do so quickly and easily using the included knob on the rear of the unit.

The RMx Series features fully modular, embossed cables that are sleek and ultra-flexible, capable of making tight bends when connecting to nearly any device within a case, allowing for easy concealment. The 12v-2×6 cable includes low-profile combs for a clean look that compliments your GPU rather than obscuring it. The RMx PSU enclosure is all-new, featuring a stamped, low-restriction fan grill and an improved connector layout with clearer labeling. For users who want a splash of color, the RMx Series is compatible with CORSAIR Premium Individually Sleeved Type 4 PSU cables and our ARGB PSU cable strips, sold separately.

RMx Series power supplies measure 150mm x 86mm x 160mm and include a wide variety of cables and connectors that vary based on the model purchased.
