As we continue our power supply reviews we add a nice looking power supply from our friends over at Hiper Group. The power supply we will be reviewing today is the Hiper M1000, this is a 1000 watt unit. This power supply has a 80 PLUS Bronze certification. It also complies with latest ATX12V v2.2 / EPS12V v2.91 form factors it also has a very High Efficiency at >85%. The M1000 also has support for Active PFC, for those of you that are not familiar with what active PFC is here is a brief description.
Power Factor correction (PFC) is the technique of adjusting the timing and wave shape of the input current in order to maintain the waveform of current and voltage to be in phase or as same shape as possible. An improved power factor will be closer to 1, meaning the real AC power is closer to the apparent power.
A higher power factor correction power supply can cut electricity bill; increase system capacity and reduce the harmonics that benefits the society as a whole.
