Here at Computex 2024, InWin debuts the new PII Platinum series of ATX 3.1 power supplies with its top-of-the-line 2500 W model, also adding new models to the VE series (80 Plus Gold) fully modular power supplies with wattage up to 1300 W. Alongside we spotted various builds around the ModFree Mini ...

2.5 KW PSU, that’s a crazy power supply.

Not sure why fans needs USB-C, but what do I know?

    Seems dangerous for the USA, that PSU would need a 20amp circuit and most residential bedrooms are 15amp. But if you need 2500 watt PSU you probably won’t want the machine in your bedroom.

      A 20A 120V circuit would not be enough. That’s only 2400 watts and you can only use 80% of that continuously. It would need a dedicated 15A 240V circuit.

      At best, the power supply will probably only be 90% efficient at full load, so it could draw over 2600 watts from the wall.

    This has to be for commercial applications. I have a gaming rig and a server very comfortably running off a single 1200 W PSU.
