AX 1200 is gold rated which means it gives approx 90% efficiency.If it had 95% then we would see it rated 80 Plus Platinum...

80 PLUS - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Two of the reviews that refute your 95% claim:

Corsair AX1200 1200W Power Supply Review - Overclockers Club
Corsair AX1200 1200W Power Supply - Corsair AX1200 1200W Power Supply Review | [H]ard|OCP

Anyone who goes SLI with GTX 560Ti, can be expected to be serious gamer.

And btw the model in question is the discontinued Corsair VX model which was a value series model whose current equivalent AFAIK is their CX lineup.

If he had a GS/TX/HX/AX model I would not worry so much.
Just because GS isnt TOL it does not mean GS is bad as i've been hearing in some places.

It still gets past 90% at more than 50%. Here's the proof.

Corsair vx series are better than gs series and i agree gs is not bad. The vx series were underrated and i think they are not discontinued and are still available.

Btw you seem to have a terrific system. Can you please post some pics?

when its all complete I will.
I had gone through 4-5 reviews and I posted the more reputed ones.this was one of those seen other than kitguru.
yes at 50% it does. so does it in my links.

but it came nowhere near 95% :O

the VX series may be available in market but it is discontinued.you cant find it anywhere in the PSU page in corsair site.
even the 9800GT is discontinued,so is GT 220,HD5770,GTX 280 etc but they are still available in indian markets.shops saturate themselves literally with the cheap stuff and overcharge for the high end.it is the case verywhere in india,thanks to high MRP tags by distributors.

we need MSRP system and lower customs rates :|

^^ Johnnyguru is also a reputed site. Maybe nowhere near 95% but still edges past 90%. I had read in one of the reviews that it fell just short of a a platinum rating.

But you said earlier that your system is complete and you have 2 580's along with ax1200. Anyways post individual pics mate. We really want to see those beauties. Afterall, this is a showoff thread.

coolgame, great purchase buddy. Now overclock the cpu and try to get past the 4 GHz barrier with the stock cooler. If you can then we can get a hands on of the overclocking potential of Sandy Bridge CPU, especially in Indian climate.:grin::grin:
