Corsair SF600 Platinum Fully Modular Power Supply, Black

build 4 systems with Corsair SFX PSUs (450,600 and 750w) for the past 7 yearsno issues so far

The best PSU I've ever used. SF series of PSU's are amazing! This thing is completely silent even under full load with my 6600xt overclocked to 2.8ghz and 3700x overclocked to 4.4ghz

Just a little superman

This is a somewhat unusual 5* review.I bought this back in Feb as had always been happy with the quality and performance of previous Corsair PSUs, and when I needed a new little one, happily gave them my money.Last week it made a very exciting 'bang' noise tripped my RCD and was quite categorically 'dead'."Arse"At this point I girded myself for some convoluted repair process and consulted the Corsair warranty site as to my options. The nudge seemed to be to "try where you bought it from" - so with little hope I decided to engage with amazon's online help feature the product seemed to have.Within maybe 5 mins, I'd got a full credit to my account (no return required) and had a replacement ordered to arrive the next day - which as it's a modular PSU, took about 5 mins to install.Quick google didn't reveal that there was some faulty batch of PSUs out there, my dead one was just a freak anomaly (stuff happens, I can accept this). What really impressed me was how Corsair (and/or Amazon) had put in place customer service that dealt with it in the most pain-free way I've ever experienced with any faulty product.It's really a quite magnificent feat of customer service, that I'm leaving a 5* review for how they handled a failure, when I couldn't be bothered to leave one when the product was just working as I expected.

Having bought an SF450 direct from Corsair in 2016 for a budget micro-ATX build which has proved reliable, energy efficient and quiet. When another PSU of 550 watts failed in a very cluttered HTPC case Corsair's SF range seemed the natural choice. They are fully modular, come with an SF to ATX form factor adapter plate included, which makes installing them as upgrade unit easy.The advantage of the modularity and the compact size is that you only install the cables you need, rather than trying to tie up and hide unused cables or buy extension cables (or as some do cut off spare cables and invalidate their warranties) and that because the PSU is smaller, the volume of the case is less restricted allowing for better airflow and cooling. The fact that the fan in these SF PSUs only spins up when absolutely needed reduces the overall power consumption of the PC. The Corsair CP-9020186-UK SF750 80 Plus Platinum efficiency rated which makes it pricey but eco-friendly.In a more spacious full tower build I have a Corsair CP-9020072-UK Professional Platinum Series HX750i ATX which has a motherboard link cable which allow you to monitor the PSU via Corsair Link/iCue software which would be a nice to have on this unit. But the additional circuitry would likely come with reliability downsides in such a small unit and possibly make it even more expensive, so you have to work out which compromises you are prepared to make...

Seems like a good unit. Cables provided are wrapped in what feels like a good sturdy sheath but the cables themselves aren't very long at all, I needed to buy an extension kit to be able to use the psu and unfortunately it doesn't come with spare screws for using the mounting bracket should you need to. I had to scavenge some spare ones from an old pc to be able to mount the psu and bracket to the chassis. Other than that it's great

Was replacing my old PSU due to fan noise issues, and I can safely say that the fan in this PSU is outstanding. It turns off completely when not under load, and even under load it is barely audible.On to the strange issues, my PC posted just fine after swapping out power-supplies but then refused to post more than once. Tried again in the morning and it was fine, but it was definitely the power supply as I had not touched anything else in the system at all. Either way, all is well now and I am really happy with this unit, Corsair has become my new PSU manufacturer of choice.

This is my second SF series PSU. The first one (an older model with no gold/platinum cert) is happily tucked away on a mini-itx build and has served us well for 3 years now. This one (SF600 platinum) is now replacing a blown BeQuiet PSU on a full sized PC build. Comments on the latter: * The cables are absolutely too short for a full sized build * The provided ATX bracket (platinum only) works perfectly * Absolutely silent, provided you're not drawing a ton of power. When it spins is very quietOn the subject of cabling, they're fine on a mini-itx build as long as your sata drives are close to the psu. You will need to extend each and every cable if you're doing a full sized build, and the cost of some of the cables can be in the £25 region, so factor this into your buying decision. Also, if you decide to go for the gold version you'll need to buy the adaptor bracket separately. In addition to atx and cpu cable extensors you'll probably need gpu and sata extensions. The connectors are the same. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07C74PWF7/ref=pe_3187911_185740111_TE_item works fine on the sata front - it's the same 8 pin connection and it clips fine into the PSU itself.
