FWIW, if you really do need to draw 1500W, this PSU won't be able to on 115V input (USA).

Per its quick start guide (page 5), the PSU can do 1200W:
https://res.cloudinary.com/corsai...SG_Web.pdf

YMMV, 1500W _might be achieved using 250VAC- the plug for the clothes dryer, electric oven, and perhaps an additional outlet at the EV-car panel.

Since this unit uses the C-19 input, I couldn't find a direct cord to 10-30P (dryer), so this can work (but please keep the cord/adapter as a taped unit to not accidentally use the polarized female):
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B081NNSFZS/?coliid=I39L7B118EXSW7&colid=2YFTH2S2GG08T&psc=1&ref_=list_c_wl... [amazon.com]
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0012ELTK8/?coliid=I1G4IQ1X66MO11&colid=2YFTH2S2GG08T&psc=1&ref_=list_c_wl... [amazon.com]

If you need to run a longer extension cord, definitely maintain 12AWG thick wiring with GFCI (which outlets near kitchens/garages/washers should be).

Unless a 1400W+ PSU specifically states it needs a dedicated 20A 120VAC outlet (polarized), the PSU would limit 120V input current to 12-15A and output power will be "less".

The 80plus test to get a platinum rating is 90%, 92%, and 89% efficiency at 20%, 50%, and 100% loads respectively. It has to be able to hit those standards to be labeled as a 80plus platinum PSU so no matter the load, its still a platinum efficiency

Great PSU. Have had it for over a year. I have used corsair products before and have had warranty claims, they are an awesome company and have always taken care of me. Recommend it.

Great PSU. I recently went with the shift 1200 but would have chosen this one over that one at this price.

We need to see the graph for efficiency.

Example, drawing 500w, is it going to be still at Platinum efficiency?

I don't know exactly what all this means, but I'm guessing this:
"Powerful CORSAIR iCUE Software: Create custom fan curves, monitor power settings, and toggle between single to multi-rail overcurrent protection (OCP) on-the-fly."

Corsair HX/HXi PSUs are the closest to BIFL. Have a HXi 750 that's been running for close to a decade.

1500W seems like overkill though. I'm running a 9900k + 3070Ti on mine with no problems.

It has a USB-C port on it that you can plug into an internal USB 2.0 header on your motherboard to control the fan speed and see how much power it's drawing, temperature, voltages, efficiency, etc.

Those points are shown to be met, per their graph (if we choose to trust it) on page 5 of manual. Not sure if the 115VAC (grey) curve implies a 100% system load (limit) of 1200 watts (see my other post or the table above that graph):

Hasn't nominal voltage in the US been 120V for quite a while now? People often still say 110V or 115V, but my understanding of ANSI standards is 120V with roughly a 5% (6V) variance in either direction.

I draw max around 900w once. Remember PSUs are way more at around 50% capacity.

Yes, since 1970, it's been 240/120 VAC RMS nominal (+- 6%).

I tried to use the voltages reflected in Corsair's manual ... or the voltage ratings indicated for the type of plugs, else I use (the correct) 120/240. Most USA DIY'ers know we mean the same thing.

At least, I _tried to not confuse the reader, till now ...

That makes sense, but I think Corsair's manual is somewhat confusing regarding the max wattages, since they split right at 115V. In other words, the manual suggests values above 115V would fall into the 1500W bucket, whereas values under it fall into 1200W. This makes it unclear to me where a literal 120V would fall.
