The MSI GeForce RTX 5090 32G LIGHTNING Z Demands 1000W
Power supply units providing over two kilowatts are becoming more common, and the Seasonic Prime PX-2200 stands out among them. This unit boasts both 80 PLUS Platinum and Cybenetics Platinum certifications, which can lead to energy savings, especially when utilizing its full 2200W capacity.
Despite its substantial power output and physical dimensions of 210 mm x 150 mm x 86 mm, the Prime PX-2200 maintains a quiet operation at 45.8 dBA under a 2200W load, with exhaust temperatures reaching only 60C. It connects to a standard wall outlet but requires a C19 mains cable, which is more robust than the common C15 type.
As noted by KitGuru, the PSU includes “enough cables to power a small nuclear station.” This unit also supports the ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 specifications and comes with a 12-year warranty.
