The Hydro G Pro PSU has strong specifications letting it reach 1000W of continuous load without problems. It’s, of course, not recommended, and we won’t have time for extended tests, but it’s highly possible with top components in these high-efficiency units.
A strong single +12V rail is the best choice for new computers and high-end graphics cards. The +12V rail is rated at 1000W itself. Modern computers are rarely using more than one graphics card, but a setup with the highest desktop CPU and RTX4090 can pass 700W of continuous load. If we add some other components like SSD/HDD, then we may see spikes up to 800W+. Then the 1kW PSU feels just right, especially when we want to be sure that our very expensive PC is safe and has stable power delivery.
Even if we won’t use the full power then the lower load guarantees us quiet work, and when the PSU fan doesn’t have to spin, then sucks less dust inside and keeps clean and in perfect condition for longer.
