Corsair Shifts from 80 PLUS to Cybenetics for Power Supply Certification
The move aims to provide more accurate and comprehensive efficiency and noise level assessments for modern PSUs.
- Cybenetics offers more detailed testing with thousands of data points compared to the limited measurements of 80 PLUS.
- Corsair's future power supplies will exclusively feature Cybenetics ratings, including new noise level certifications.
- Other brands like Cooler Master and MSI have also adopted Cybenetics alongside 80 PLUS, signaling a potential industry-wide shift.
- Cybenetics uses a familiar tiered system for efficiency ratings, ranging from Bronze to Diamond, similar to 80 PLUS.
- The transition is expected to be straightforward for consumers, who will now look for Cybenetics badges instead of 80 PLUS.
