Introduction
There have been a plethora of 1kw power supplies released recently from many of the leading power supply manufacturers. Today we will take a look at a unit from a company not so well known among technology enthusiasts, Sirtec. They are not a new company, they have been designing and manufacturing PSUs for quite some time now although you might not have heard of them because their units can be commonly found in OEM systems and pre-installed in cases of many system and chassis manufacturers.
Sirtec have recently launched the “High Power” division, parallels of which could be made with Micron and Crucial; a branch of the main company marketing and selling products under their own umbrella. Sirtec’s move is very bold since they have already registered several patents and have a large product range. Today we will take a look at the most powerful Sirtec unit, the High Power RockSolid 1200W (HPC-1200-G14C) the specifications of which are quite promising.
