phanteks revolt x 1200w review b

   Prior to starting my tests, I went online and did a quick search about the Revolt X 1200W model only to find some people pointing out to various incidents that owners of the Revolt X line have reported. Yes, initially that had me worried but it’s really not uncommon to find people who had issues with a product, any product for that matter. Still for my own peace of mind I repeated all tests 3 times more than with any other PSU and on top of that I used the Revolt X 1200W for 2 weeks with my primary gaming rig (11900K/Z590 Dark/3080 Ti). Yes, 2 weeks is not nearly enough to test the endurance/durability of any PSU but when you have plenty more to test there’s simply no more time (and even 2 weeks is honestly a lot for one such review). With that out of the way not much I can say about the Revolt X 1200W that you can’t already see in the charts, rail stability is rock solid, noise levels are acceptable (for a power consumption exceeding 1KW) and in terms of build quality, well it’s a Seasonic unit. As for the ability to use the Revolt X 1200W with two systems, well I didn’t really test that feature but if I wanted to place two rigs inside the same tower getting this would be a no brainer.


   Right now, the Revolt X 1200W PSU by Phanteks retails for USD249.99 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and for 269.90Euros inside the EU (Caseking.de) a price tag which is actually good for what you get in return. Of course, if you have no need for the 2nd motherboard connectors you should be able to find models with similar specifications for less (although not for considerably less). That being said the Revolt X 1200W delivers on everything that matters and then some thanks to its second motherboard connectors and for that it gets the Platinum Award.
