Who's FSP? That was my first thought... like.... I've never heard of them.
Sadly I didn't follow. I get it but for whatever reason the name and power supplies never stuck.Uh, they've been making power supplies for almost 40 years. Fortron Source.
I noticed a pic in the Nvidia connector thread from @Niner51 of a partially-visible "FSP Hydro PTM PRO ATX 3.0 1200W" (copy-pasted from sig). Is that the one you ordered?Just ordered the 1200W Platinum. Should be here by next weekend.
Yep. We've had some good reviews of other FSP PSUs so between @Niner51 and them I thought it worth a shot.

Same here. Sure I could have waited and gotten a higher model, but I don't really need it to be honest. Slim pickings for ATX 3.0 power supplies out there right now.
