https://www.techpowerup.com/292077/cooler-master-goes-big-with-three-new-1300-w-power-supplies Based on three new power supplies from Cooler Master, it looks like we can expect some extremely power hungry GPU's this year, as the company has announced no less than three 1300 W power supplies. On the plus side, all three models are 80 Plus Platinum certified, so they'll at least be really power efficient. Interestingly, none of the three new models follow the ATX standard when it comes to physical size, as two use the SFX form factor, whereas the last one is too deep to meet even the large ATX PSU spec.
Starting with the big boy, the V1300 Platinum 30th Anniversary, which measures in at 190 x 150 x 86 mm (DxWxH) and is the only 1300 W model that works when plugged into a 110 V power socket. It's a fairly standard high-end power supply with a 135 mm FBD fan and fully modular cables, although the wires in the PCIe cables have been upgraded to 16 AWG to prevent current drop. It also has a switch for either single or multi-rail operation and can deliver 54 A per 12 V rail. It'll come with a 10 year warranty, although the pricing is unknown at this point in time.
Moving down a step in size, we have the V1300 SFX-L Platinum, which also comes in an 1100 W full-range SKU, since the 1300 W model is limited to 220-240 V countries. It follows the SFX-L form factor and measures 125 x 125 x 63.5 mm (DxWxH) and is home to a 120 mm FBD fan. We're still looking at a fully modular PSU here with the same 16 AWG cables, although in this case, they're also extended to the 12VHPWR cable, as this PSU is ready for the next generation of graphics cards. Here the 12 V rail delivers no less than 108.3 A, something it shares with its even smaller SFX sibling.
The final new PSU is the V1300 SFX Platinum, which measures a mere 100 x 125 x 63.5 mm (DxWxH). It's likely to be a fair bit noisier at full load than its larger relatives, as it comes with a 92 mm FBD fan. Beyond that, the specs are identical to the SFX-L version. So far there's no word on when these new PSU's will be available, but it should be some time later this year.
The PCI 5.0 connector is also available on 'some' models.
