Corsair CX430 V2 Power Supply Review

Overload Tests

Below you can see the maximum we could pull from this power supply. If we tried to pull more than that the unit shut down, showing that its protections were working well. During this test noise levels were still below the maximum allowed. We could pull a little bit more with the original CX430 (548.8 W).
