FSP Hydro PTM Pro ATX 2.52

The FSP HYDRO PTM PRO 1200 W is a good product. The FSP itself has made the platform for this ATX power supply unit. The size is not too compact (190 mm in length), but for the offered wattage, it's ok. You'll need a bigger chassis to make it fit without a problem. You can find the fanless mode here, which works till 30% load. The exterior looks nice; it's scratchproof and fingertips proof, so that's a nice feature. Still, most of the chassis nowadays have a PSU shroud, which would hide it. The unit comes with a 10-year warranty. It's an 80 Plus Platinum certified PSU, and that's a typical choice for even the high-end systems (maybe a bit more) from the consumer's point of view (in terms of efficiency/price of the unit). The 1200 W variant offers a massive power output that should be enough for most users, even the most elaborate gaming setups with a single graphics card in their system. In reality, even a PC like the one used in this test (i9 12900K + Geforce RTX 3080) rarely exceeds 500-550 W of power draw.

Today we are having a look at one of the best PSUs FSP has to offer, the Hydro PTM Pro 1200W. FSP is an OEM who usually builds PSU platforms for other companies, however the Hydro PTM Pro is a PSU that they design and produce themselves, making it interesting to see what the company has to offer directly to the retail market.
