Conclusions

The Olympia OP1200 1200W power supply delivers solid voltages, with excellent regulation and above average efficiency. It comes with sleeved cables and lots of connectors, which include two 8-pin EPS12V, four 6-pin PCI-e and two 8-pin PCI-e connectors. The enclosure is longer (220mm) than a standard ATX unit so the OP1200 might not fit some of the small PC cases. The Olympia OP1200 was quiet during normal operation and under load.



Strengths:
  -   Single +12V output capable of up to 90A (1080W)
  -   Silent
  -   Active PFC
  -   >80% Efficiency
  -   Excellent build quality
  -   Excellent voltage regulation
  -   All cables are fully sleeved
  -   Both 6-pin and 8-pin PCI-E connectors (NVIDIA SLI and ATI CrossFire Ready)


Weaknesses:
  -   Non-modular design
  -   Two 6-pin PCI-e connectors doubled-up on a single cable
  -   Long enclosure (220mm)


Given the solid performance, excellent build quality and features like Active PFC, >80% efficiency, single +12V rail, support for 6-Pin and 8-Pin PCI-Express, excellent voltage regulation, I award the Silverstone Olympia OP1200 1200W power supply the eXtreme Outer Vision Highly Recommended award!
