As the demand for in-depth power supply information continues to increase, CORSAIR® has made the decision to exclusively adopt Cybenetics’ advanced certifications for both efficiency and noise, moving away from the traditional 80 PLUS certification. This strategic shift reflects CORSAIR’s unwavering commitment to enhancing consumer understanding of the disparities between Cybenetics and 80 PLUS. By doing so, CORSAIR empowers consumers to make informed choices, providing them with the assurance that every PSU has undergone rigorous testing to guarantee optimal performance, efficiency, and acoustics.

It’s in the Details: Why Cybenetics Testing is the New Standard

Cybenetics certification provides a significantly more comprehensive evaluation of PSU performance compared to its predecessor. While still using the familiar Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Titanium tier system for efficiency ratings, the transition for PC enthusiasts is seamless. However, Cybenetics testing sets itself apart with a far more thorough and detailed approach than 80 PLUS, resulting in highly accurate results. In recent years, Cybenetics has gained significant traction within the industry for numerous compelling reasons, solidifying its position as a leading authority in PSU certification.

• Enhanced Efficiency Metrics: Cybenetics provides a detailed efficiency profile across various loads, environments, and operational conditions, reflecting real-world usage more accurately.
• Noise Level Assessment: In addition to efficiency, Cybenetics introduces a noise certification that categorizes PSUs based on their acoustic performance, from A++ (virtually silent) to F (noisy). This is particularly noteworthy for gamers and professionals who require quieter systems.
• More Data Points: Cybenetics’ testing methodology produces thousands of data points across all loads, rather than the handful of measurements produced during 80 PLUS testing, ensuring more accurate results.
