After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain.  I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain.  If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration. 

Please update your bookmarks and be sure to visit the new and improved Ninjalane at Hardwareasylum.com

    Conclusion

    All things considered the Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 1200W can support quite a number of systems including high-end overclocking and gaming rigs.  The only real limitation comes in the form of PCI Express video card support, which is not a limitation at all.  We have been conditioned to always assume we need one power lead per power connection on a video card.  Given that this power supply uses two connections per lead you not only save on cabling but get instant 4 card support using the 2 additional modular leads.
    Good Things
    80+ Gold Rating for 90% efficiency
    4-way Video Card Support
    Storage Bag
    Bad Things
    Not all system will require an extra 12v power connector
    Black and Gold colors don't match many motherboard color schemes
    We would like to thank Cooler Master for helping to make this review possible
