The Raidmax 1200AE is a very large power supply aimed at large SLI/Crossfire systems but also has the active protection to keep everything safe from 1200 watts. The Modular Design and Ultra-Quiet fan are also features of a great power supply. Easy cable routing means better airflow and better overall look to the inside of the case.
The addition of a very usable case is a nice afterthought but should not really be a primary factor in the selection of a power supply. The 80 Plus Bronze rating assures you some comfort in efficiency rating while the 1200W rating assures you that this PSU is up to the task of delivering enough power for almost anyones needs. The 1200AE is positioned as Raidmax’s current Flagship PSU and carries a wide array of certifications including Nvidia’s SLI certification. With an online price approximately $199 (Newegg) or less the 1200AE is a bargain for 1200W power supplies.
If you are looking to save some cash and pick up a high wattage PSU then the Raidmax is worth a look. We would have liked to see a Silver or Gold rating but then a 1200W unit with either of those ratings is going to demand a considerably higher pricetag.
At $199 we would be comfortable putting the 1200AE in a gaming rig meant for occasional power demanding use. If this is intended for an environment with consistently high power demands we would rather spend a bit more money for a PSU with a better rating.
