Enermax has expanded its high-end power supply portfolio with the introduction of the Revolution III S 1000W, a new unit targeting the premium segment of the market. Available in black and white, this latest entry focuses heavily on future-proofing, featuring full compliance with the Intel ATX 3.1 standard. Perhaps the most aggressive move with this launch is the manufacturer's decision to back the unit with a 13-year warranty. This duration exceeds the industry-standard 10-year coverage typically seen on flagship units from competitors like Corsair or Seasonic.
Efficiency is a key selling point for the Revolution III S, which has secured Platinum certification across three major testing bodies: 80 Plus, Cybenetics, and PPLP. This ensures tight voltage regulation and reduced thermal waste, which is managed by a 120 mm fluid-dynamic bearing fan. Enermax has tuned the cooling curve for silence, implementing a semi-fanless mode that keeps the fan stationary until the load exceeds 60%. For a 1000W unit, this means the power supply remains passive during most desktop tasks and even gaming scenarios.
The PSU uses 100% Japanese capacitors and includes a native 12V-2×6 connector capable of delivering up to 600W down a single cable, ensuring compatibility with current and future flagship graphics cards without the need for adapters. The cabling solution uses mesh-sleeving rather than standard ribbon cables, designed to improve flexibility and airflow management within the chassis.
The Revolution III S 1000W is scheduled to hit retailers in January 2026. Pricing is set at $179.99/€159.99 for the standard black model, while the white variant commands a slight premium at $189.99/€169.99.
KitGuru says: We've seen plenty of PSUs with 12-year warranties over the last decade, but a 13-year warranty isn't that common. This alone might be enough for the Revolution III S 1000W to stand out in the market.
