Complete Digital Control
The revolutionaryCorsair AX860i Power Supply Platinum Series AXi family is the first line of desktop PC power supplies to use digital (DSP) control and Corsair Link to bring you an unprecedented level of monitoring and performance customization. The DSP in the AX860i makes on-the-fly adjustments for incredibly tight voltage regulation, 80 PLUS Platinum Efficiency, and clean, stable power. -
Real-time monitoring and control with Corsair Link
Put the Corsair AX860i Power Supply Platinum Series under your control by connecting it directly to a USB header on your motherboard with the included cable, or to a Corsair Link Commander (available separately). Then, download the free Corsair Link Dashboard software for unrivaled power supply monitoring and control options.Monitor power input and output, efficiency, fan speed, and internal temperature, directly from the Windows based application. Or, take it to the next level and set up and modify fan speed profiles, or even select from virtual “single rail” or “multi-rail” software modes, with selectable OCP points.Stable and Reliable Power Delivery
DSP-controlled, real-time voltage regulation helps ensure that your valuable components receive clean, stable power. -
Less Heat and Lower Operating Cost
The extreme efficiency of the Corsair AX860i Power Supply Platinum Series earns it coveted 80 PLUS Platinum certification. Less wasted power means minimal excess heat. This can reduce the strain on your other components, and it can save you money over the long run in the form of lower power bills. -
Quiet Operation at low loads
Super-high efficiency has another benefit: silence. The thermally-controlled fan doesn’t even spin at low loads. It’s ideal if you’re building a quiet PC or you just want to reduce the amount of ambient noise in your life.Easy installation and cable routing, with better airflow
The fully modular cable set allows you to use only the cables you need, and the flat design makes cable routing much easier in tight spaces. You get a clean-looking system build with cables out of the airflow path for efficient space usage that’s energy efficient as well.
Features
Advanced Fan Design
An ultra-quiet, 120mm double ball-bearing fan delivers excellent airflow with exceptionally low noise levels by varying fan speed in response to temperature.The Corsair AX860i Power Supply Platinum Series is so efficient that the fan doesn’t spin up until you’re pushing your system hard. And, fan speed thresholds can be adjusted with Corsair Link.Are you used to checking to see if the fan spins to verify if your power supply is working? No worries. Corsair AX860i Power Supply Platinum Series has a self-test switch to verify proper functionality before you install.-

Awards
Corsair AX760i and AX860i Power Supply gets the “Must Have” award from KitGuru.net
“We were bowled away by the Corsair AX1200i when we reviewed it back in August this year. Three months later and the Corsair AX860i Power Supply Platinum Series per supplies that do a commendable job, including Corsair’s own, but users wanting a top-class build for their next PC should keep this PSU in their thoughts.”
Corsair AX860i Digital Power Supply wins the “Gold” award from Hardware Heaven
“As far as performance is concerned the Corsair AX860i Power Supply Platinum Series is a very impressive unit in its wattage class. The rails showed only minor fluctuation during testing with temperatures well within acceptable levels. AC Ripple results were class leading and as expected for a new Corsair unit it was great to see the PSU operate fanless during normal system use, only requiring active cooling during more demanding tasks. As far as value goes, there is little to fault Corsair on. We get a unit which arrives with a good selection of cables/connectors, ties, badge and two pouches. The 7-year warranty adds value also and the price point is appropriate to the quality and performance of the unit.”
TweakTown.com gives the Corsair AX860i 80 PLUS Platinum PSU the “Best Performance” award
“Corsair didn’t cut any of the features from the AX1200i when designing the AX860i. You get the same functionality across the board. This includes the DSP, high efficiency, real-time monitoring with integration into Corsair Link, and even the ability to set custom OCP points as you wish. They didn’t cut from the quality of the unit either. Voltage regulation, DC output quality, and efficiency are all almost identical to what was delivered with the AX1200i. You simply can’t ask for more out of a power supply.”
