Antec shows off the HCP-1300 Platinum, a new 80Plus Platinum power supply with an efficiency of up to 94 percent. The unit has modular cabling and is cooled by a silent 135mm fan. The specification sheet mentions the HCP-1300 Platinum features heavy duty Japanese caps and that it uses four +12V rails.
Antec's High Current Pro Platinum series is the pinnacle of power supplies and fully modular with a revolutionary 20+8-pin MBU socket for future needs. Operating up to 94 per cent efficient, HCP-1300 Platinum PSU can reduce electricity bills by up to 25 per cent, when compared to other power supplies. The HCP-1300's innovative 16-pin sockets create a new level of flexibility by doubling the modular connectivity, supporting two different 8-pins connectors and allowing for future connector changes. Highest-quality components, 100% Japanese-made capacitors, and a quiet 135mm double ball bearing fan complete the package.
The CircuitShield protection circuitry makes the HCP-1300 safe and reliable in any environment. The product has a seven-year warranty with 24/7 global online support service.This new power supply also has a fantastic feature for Bitcoin miners: the OC Link. It allows 2 HCP Platinum's to work in tandem to power the most demanding systems. To achieve a high rank as a Bitcoin miner, state of the art processors are a must. Such hardware requires not only stable and reliable power, but maximum energy efficiency to help minimize the operating costs. in the form of electricity and lots of PCI Express connectors for the many GPUs used. Arguably, no PSU in the world is as ready for this as Antec's the HCP-1300 Platinum with OC Link.
"Antec Power supplies have always been known for their high quality, functionality and reliability," says Jerome Francois, European Sales Director at Antec, Inc. "The Antec HCP-1300 Platinum PSUs are not only quieter and energy efficient, but also equipped to provide customers with enhanced flexibility and a complete modular cable design to ensure a rewarding, high-performance experience."
