[Corsair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rm-series) has recently updated its RMx series power supply units (PSUs) to comply with the ATX 3.1 standard, introducing models with native ATX 12V-2×6 connectors. These new PSUs are available in 750W, 850W, and 1000W variants, designed to support high-power builds and the latest high-end graphics cards. The inclusion of the native ATX 12V-2×6 connector simplifies cable management by eliminating the need for multiple adapters, providing a cleaner and more efficient setup.

In addition to the new connector, the updated RMx series features several enhancements aimed at improving performance and reliability. The PSUs are equipped with a 140mm fluid dynamic bearing fan that operates quietly and efficiently, thanks to its PWM control and half-dome structure, which reduces surface friction. These units also boast a [Gold-certified efficiency rating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zillion-fg) and an A+ noise rating from [Cybenetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/steel-legend-sl-1200gw), ensuring both energy efficiency and low noise levels. The RMx series is fully modular, allowing for flexible cable configurations, and comes with a ten-year warranty, underscoring Corsair’s commitment to quality and durability.
