Review on πŸ’ͺ ASUS ROG Strix 1000W Gold PSU: Enhanced Cooling, Modular Cables, 10-Year Warranty by Mark Fleming

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Well designed, big disappointment with AURA Sync

I was very happy with this new power supply as my old one was defective. The OLED display on the front is very handy for monitoring power usage and just spices up the device. The 100% modular pin connection is very nice and helps keep the case nice and tidy. My Case is a self-made suitcase made entirely of wood and Plexiglas. As such, there are few ways to manage cables and that helped a lot! My only concern is that while it claims to be AURA compatible, it doesn't work with my ASUS STRIX X370-F gaming motherboard, which has RGB headers for AURA sync. There are several versions of AURA RGB. The position of the pins is completely different. So I can't control the lighting effects of the power supply. I have included photos of the pins needed to fully customize the RGB of this power supply.

Pros
  • Dope πŸ”₯
Cons
  • Expensive insurance
