Cooler Master Elite Gold 1000 1000W · 80 PLUS Gold · ATX 3.1 · Fully Modular

The Elite Gold 1000 is Cooler Master's 1000W, 80 PLUS Gold unit built to ATX 3.1, with PCIe 5.1 support and a native 12V-2x6 (12+4-pin) cable for current graphics cards. Cooler Master rates it for peak loads up to 200% of its rated output, delivers it from a single +12V rail of 83.3 A, and keeps it cool with a 120 mm fluid dynamic bearing fan. Every cable is detachable and flat, and the housing is a compact 140 × 150 × 86 mm.

High-End GPU Builds

ATX 3.1 transient handling (peaks up to 200% of rated output) and a native 12V-2x6 cable suit current high-power graphics cards, with six more 6+2-pin PCI-E connectors for cards that use the older plugs.

🧰

Tidy, Compact Builds

All cables detach, so only the ones you use go in the case, and they are flat with an embossed finish that Cooler Master says is easier to grip and route. At 150 mm long, the unit leaves more room at the PSU end of the case.

Frequently Asked Questions

Technical FAQs & Store Policies

Can it power an RTX 50-series card with a 16-pin connector?
Yes. It has one native 12V-2x6 (12+4-pin) cable, which Cooler Master's photo shows marked 600W, and it is built to ATX 3.1 with PCIe 5.1 support. Cooler Master rates it for power peaks up to 200% of its rated output.
Is it fully modular?
Yes. Every cable, including the 24-pin, detaches. Use only the cables supplied with this unit: modular PSU cables are not standardised between brands or models.
How much of the 1000W is on +12V?
Almost all of it: the single +12V rail is rated at 83.3 A, which is 999.6 W. The +3.3V and +5V rails share 110 W.
Will it fit my case?
It is a standard ATX unit measuring 140 × 150 × 86 mm. Cooler Master points out that at 150 mm it is shorter than many high-wattage PSUs, which helps in cases with a short PSU bay.
What protections does it have?
Under-voltage (UVP), over-voltage (OVP), over-power (OPP), over-temperature (OTP) and short-circuit (SCP) protection, with an Active PFC input stage.
Is this power supply 100% genuine and backed by official warranty at AHW Store?
Yes! Every power supply sold at AHW Store is 100% authentic, factory-sealed, and backed by authorized local distributor warranty in Egypt with direct technical support and replacement. Details in our Warranty Policy ↗.
What payment and installment plans are available in Egypt?
We offer cash on delivery across Egypt, credit cards, and flexible 0% interest installment plans through ValU, Sympl, Forsa, and bank credit cards. See our Payment & Installments Guide ↗.
How fast is shipping and delivery across Egypt?
Orders are delivered within 2 to 7 business days across all Egyptian governorates in reinforced protective armored packaging (with pickup available from our 6th of October headquarters). See Shipping Policy ↗.
Can AHW Store install and stress-test this PSU in my complete custom PC build?
Yes! Our certified hardware engineers can assemble, wire with precision cable combs, stress-test under maximum electrical load, and calibrate custom thermal profiles. Explore our Custom PC Builder ↗.
What is the return and replacement policy at AHW Store?
In full accordance with Egyptian Consumer Protection Law, unopened factory-sealed items can be returned within 14 days. Defective units receive immediate warranty inspection and exchange. Review our Return & Refund Policy ↗.
