THE C1500 PLATINUM, the latest addition to NZXT’s power supply lineup, is priced at $370. That alone limits it to a niche audience, along with the few people who actually need that sort of power in 2024. 2025, with its rumored even higher-powered GPUs, could be another matter.
However, if you do find yourself in that camp, you’ll be pleased with its exceptional performance and reliability. With features like fully modular black nylon-sleeved cables, a Sunon MagLev 140mm fan, two PCI Express 5.1 12V-2x6, and world-class electrical performance, it’s also designed to meet ATX 3.1 standards.
Considering the tier of this PSU, its bundle is surprisingly minimalistic. NZXT provides only the necessary mounting screws, an IEC C19 AC power cable, and a purple bag for the modular cables. The highlight here is the presence of two 600-watt 12V-2x6 connectors and six PCI Express 6+2 pin cables with just one connector on each, forgoing 'piggy-bagging' multiple PCI Express connectors on a single cable.
