[1] Units experiencing tripping issues with high transient power draw GPUs like AMD Vega, 6900 XT and Nvidia RTX3080/3090. Generally fixed in newer batches.
[2] OTP is set too high or potentially non-functioning, unit survived the test, source : Aris (HWBusters / TPU / THW) reviews.
[3] An ATX 3.0 PSU which doesn’t include a 12VHPWR cable out of the box (yet). Buy separately as needed.
[4] Antec EA Pro Gold has versions for Chinese market made by FSP on completely different, worse, group-regulated platform (tier E). Source #1, #2.
[5] Non-functioning multi-rail OCP essentially making it a single-rail PSU.
[6] Leadex V series has 1) OCP set to 100.8% of nominal capacity, i.e lacking the headroom for transients when most high-end PSUs have it set in the range of 120-140%. So for example a 1kW version of it more like 750-850W in comparison with competition. 2) 20AWG cables past the first PCIe connector, which is against ATX spec.
[7] Bitfenix Whisper M and Formula Gold 450/550W units have just one ‘GPU’ rail with 30A OCP limit, but it is possible to plug PCIe cable into the same socket as for EPS rail, thus using two rails if the unit shuts down with high power draw GPUs.
[8] Seasonic PRIME based units experience shutdowns with RTX3080/3090 (and possibly RX6900 XT) GPUs. The cause is not the OCP tripping but a PSU design flaw as evident by the PSU not latching off on shutdown and 1000W+ models being affected too. Doesn’t manifest in 100% cases as it’s also dependent on motherboard model and GPU OC. Seasonic provides a replacement 24-pin ATX cable to fix this via support. Appears to be fixed post 2021 although there’s no official confirmation from Seasonic.
[9] Due to regional regulations (China and Australia) there’s version of AX1600i with C14 receptacle instead of C20, with no mention of sub 200V input voltage operation on the label. The PSU itself is still identical to the worldwide version otherwise, and as such can be used under full 100-240V input voltage range but maximum operating wattage under low input mains voltage is limited by the lower current and temperature rating of C14 socket. It’s not recommended to use such units at higher than 1.3kW load under 120V input voltage or lower due to the risk of melting the receptacle.
[10] Out of production, any listings you would encounter today would be either used, refurbished or at the very least being long in storage. Buy at your discretion.
[11] Ball bearing fan, possibly not silent even at very low RPMs.
[12] PCIe and EPS modular sockets aren’t electrically compatible despite they are mechanically, pay attention, misconnecting might result in the damage to PC.
[13] Be aware that strictly multi-rail units (without a possibility to switch to single-rail mode) can trip with very high power draw GPUs (>400W) and/or CPUs (unlocked Intel i7/i9) due to lower OCP tripping point. Read the manual and balance out the load if that happens.
[14] Potential ATX 3.0 units either not tested for compatibility (no Aris review), not received the certification (no entry in Intel’s DB), having problems with passing ATX 3.0 tests (failed Aris review), or without proper reviews in the first place to put them in the normal priority subtier.
[15] Most good 1-1.2kW+ non-ATX 3.0 PSUs would work with GPUs utilizing ATX 3.0 transient power draw spec due to enough headroom for transients.
[16] The PSU-side 12VHPWR receptacle is not a requirement for an ATX 3.0 PSU. The additional 4-pin part of it is passive, with no ‘communication’, they’re simply shorted to ground which can be made in-cable. And since a single 8-pin PCIe cable can withstand ~342W the worst case scenario (per-pin current capacity is the same as with 12VHPWR), such cable with 2×8-pin connectors PSU-side is even safer than one with 12VHPWR on both ends due to more thermal headroom.

[2] Seasonic S12III, S12II EVO and A12 – OCP (on any rails) not claimed, nor present in supervisor IC. No reviews with protection tests to prove otherwise.
[3] Antec EA Pro Gold has versions for Chinese market made by FSP on completely different, worse, group-regulated platform (tier E). Source #1, #2.
[4] Issues around a non-functional OTP and OCP reported by Poiu @ TweakPC

[1] Very high DOA rate and underrated FETs that explode under high stress. Sources : #1, #2, #3, #4. There’s a claimed fix, and some units made after early 2021 seem to be good but it’s not clear to which extent the issue was fixed and past what manufacturing date non-fixed revision wouldn’t be encountered anymore.
[2] Downgraded 230V-only version of S12III platform.
[3] OCP either not present on any rails or faulty/unreliable. No reviews with protection tests to prove otherwise.
[4] Sources : EVGA W1, N1
[5] Source : Armageddon Voltron, other offerings are assumed to perform on the same level until proven otherwise
[6] Review sample manipulation / post review design downgrades / frequent component changes without significant differences in branding / paid reviews
