Lian Li EDGE Platinum 1000 power supply 1000 W, ATX 3.1, fully modular, black

The Lian Li EDGE Platinum 1000 is a black, fully modular 1000 W power supply built to ATX 3.1. Officially it carries 80 PLUS Gold certification, but the manufacturer says its efficiency reached Platinum level in Cybenetics testing, and the 150 × 86 × 150 mm housing can sit on its side in a dual-chamber case.

  • Wattage: 1000 W
  • Efficiency: 80 PLUS Gold, Cybenetics Platinum-level (manufacturer data)
  • Cabling: fully modular, flat cables with magnetic clips
  • Connectors: 12V-2×6, 2 × PCIe 6+2, 4 × Molex, 20+4 ATX
  • Size: ATX, 150 × 86 × 150 mm
  • Cooling: 135 mm FDB fan, 0–1600 rpm

Description

Cables you can fold shorter for a clean build

The CPU and PCIe cables are flat and flexible, so spare length folds up and stays put with a magnetic clip. That helps with back-connect motherboards and side-mounted power supplies. The motherboard cable has a braided texture and comes with a cable comb, and the 20+4 output can be connected from either side of the unit.

Who this power supply is for

Builders of a gaming or work PC in a black case who need 1000 W of headroom for a top graphics card and care about efficiency. The rotatable AC inlet and compact housing suit dual-chamber cases, and the German EPCOS capacitors suit a PC that runs under heavy load for long stretches.

Questions & answers

Why is it called Platinum when it is 80 PLUS Gold certified?

The unit is certified 80 PLUS Gold, but according to the manufacturer its real-world efficiency in Cybenetics testing went beyond the Gold range and earned a Platinum rating. That is where the model name comes from.

Does it suit back-connect motherboards?

Yes, the flat CPU and PCIe cables fold shorter with magnetic clips, which the manufacturer designed specifically for back-connect boards and side-mounted power supplies.

How quiet is it?

The 135 mm fluid dynamic bearing fan runs at 0–1600 rpm with a noise level of 36.21 dB. The manufacturer cites PPLP.info SSS and Cybenetics A noise ratings.
