Corsair's 2025 HXi Power Supplies Can Power Two RTX 5090s Without Breaking A Sweat

hero corsair hxi 2025 news
The main topics of discussion in the PC building world might be about GPU pricing and tariffs, but there's no denying that we're living in an age of seriously powerful hardware. Ryzen 9 and Core i9 chips offer a gazillion cores to work with, while high-end GPUs from AMD and NVIDIA can push triple-digit frame rates in most games with ease. Powering all that silicon requires some serious juice, and Corsair's new 2025 HXi power supplies fit the bill just fine.

Corsair says the new models build on the legacy of its AXi series, and are available as the HX1200i and the HX1500i, with respective wattages as their names imply. Befitting their high-end status, these units are fully modular, use Japanese capacitors rated to 105ºC, 140mm fans, and follow the ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 standards. That's just the start, though. Both units bear a coveted Cybenetics Platinum certification with tougher requirements than the well-known 80 Plus Rating.

Given the wattage on tap, it's no surprise these PSUs each come with two 12V-2x6 GPU cables, befit for that RTX 5090 you have on order -- or two, if you're an ML engineer. The GPU plug on those cables is clad in two distinct colors so you can ensure it's tightly fit and your machine doesn't join the ranks of computer fires due to a PEBKAC. Corsair also says the PSUs' internal design is a resonant LLC topology with DC-to-DC conversion.

The "i" in the model names indicates these power supplies support connectivity to Corsair's iCUE software, letting you have control over the fan curve, and the ability to switch between single-and-multi-rail overcurrent protection (OCP). Both units are available immediately. At current Amazon pricing, the HX1200i will set you back $339.22, while the HX1500i can be yours for $349.99.
