Super Flower Intros 1600 W 80-Plus Titanium PSU

Editor's Note: While Computex took place last week and all of the news announcements are behind us, we're still sorting through hundreds of in-person meetings and demonstrations, picking out just a few more of the most interesting items we saw up close.

Super Flower showcased its new 1600 W 80-Plus Titanium power supply at Computex 2014 in Taipei last week.

This power supply comes in response to Corsair's 1500 W Titanium AX1500i PSU, and is now the world's most powerful PSU, with an 80-Plus Titanium certificate, according to a Super Flower spokesperson.

Super Flower has built the power supply to be fully modular, so all the cables can be removed as desired. It also comes with a massive fan. With the high efficiency rating of around 94 percent, it won't have to work very hard to keep itself cool.

Super Flower is also the ODM (Original Design Manufacturer) for a number of other vendors, so we will be seeing this same power supply underneath other companies' logos. For example, EVGA's 1600 W Titanium PSU is this exact unit, with nothing more than a couple of aesthetic changes.

Unfortunately, pricing for the unit was not available. It will hit the market in the coming months in both white and black.

    Unless you are running quad GPUs, this is overkill.

    Any word on price for this or the AXi? I'm glad there is competition. FSP needs to get off their butts and make something epic like this.

    I can't imagine many people needing to push 1600W let alone 1000W.

    Two Titans consume less than 500W full tilt. Like redgarl said "Unless you are running quad GPUs, this is overkill."

    And if you can afford four Titans, you got too much f'***ing money. /jealous

    It's for when people have an FX-9590 and two R9 295s in quadfire.

    Can I plug my dryer in to this out of the box or do I need to buy a separate cable?
