Review on 💡 SilverStone Strider 1200W PSU, 80 Plus Platinum, Modular Power Supply - PS-ST1200-PT by Narendra Thapa

This is the worst power supply I have ever used. It's quiet until you open the app, then the fans immediately rev up to 100%. Literally from 0 to 100%, no slow increase as needed, just 100%. It's annoying. If you put the computer under constant load, the fan (abruptly) jumps to 100% and a few seconds later goes back to the normal fan speeds of the other power supplies, which proves that it simply programmed the fan curves poorly. I don't know how the product ever passed the "maybe we should plug it in and try it" test. I also think I hear coil whistling, I'm pretty sure it's coil whistling, but it could also be the fan doing other stupid things, hard to tell. Do yourself a favor and don't put this power supply where you don't want to be bothered. I think it would be ok if you had a server room and you were less bothered by the noise. The only good thing about this power supply is that it didn't set my computer on fire, I think that's its win.
