Enermax has just announced that its US customers can now purchase the first power supply units from the high-performance MaxRevo series that has been granted Gold certifications by the 80PLUS initiative.

Enermax' new series comprises three new models that are rated at 1200, 1350 and 1500 Watts, respectively, and all of these feature an advanced series of technologies meant to improve power delivery.

One of the most important innovations introduced by the MaxRevo series is the Copper-Bridge Array transmission technology which replaces conventional wires to provide up to 3% better power regulation.

Enermax stats that this enables its PSUs to deliver cleaner DC power and improves the system's stability.

All the MaxRevo power supplies come with six 12V rails rated at 30A each, but their combined power output varies according to the model.

More precisely, the 1.2kW unit has a maximum 12V amperage of 100W, the 1.35kW unit is rated at 112A, while the top of the line 1500W PSU can provide up to 125A.

As it's usually the case with high-end power supply units, Enermax' MaxRevo series features a modular cable design and all the models come bundled together with four 6+2pins PCI-E cables, can power up to 14 SATA drives and carry 10 MOLEX plugs.

Outside of the 80PLUS Gold certifications, which ensures that the PSUs are able to deliver at least 88% efficiency in any usage scenario, MaxRevo power supplies are also compatible with the ErP Lot 6 standard.

The rest of the PSU features include 105°C Japanese electrolytic capacitors, a 13.9cm Twister-bearing fan (900 to 2000 RPM working speed), as well as the CordGuard and HeatGuard technologies.

The last one was designed to keep the fan running after the system was shut off in order to allow for the PSU to cool down.

Only the 1350W MaxRevo unit is available for purchase right now and it bears a price tag of $319.
