The new Vertex Series units will provide 1000 Watts of true power in Platinum levels of efficiency with all the best features you can expect from a Seasonic power supply. The Vertex PX Series achieves 80 PLUS Platinum certification with its 92 percent efficiency at 50 percent system load. Seasonic’s latest Vertex Series is designed and built to power new PC components requiring the new ATX 3.0 and PCIe 5.0 standards. Seasonic’s vast experience in designing the most silent and efficient power supplies on the market was translated into the development of Hybrid Mode; a state-of-the-art fan control that enables users to keep the overall fan noise at the lowest possible level. High performance Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) fans are designed to take advantage of the impact absorbance effects of oil. They are extremely reliable and generate considerably less operating noise and heat than ball bearing fans. The lubrication of the bearing surface reduces friction and vibration and therefore lowers overall power consumption. Due to the effortless, quieter rotations and its robust construction, this reliable fan technology also greatly increases the lifespan of the fan.
