The Raijintek CRATOS 1200 power supply unit powers modern PC builds with high demands for stability and performance. It offers a total output of 1200W and has 80 PLUS Gold certification, confirming high energy conversion efficiency. With support for ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 standards, it is ready to run the latest generation of processors and graphics cards, supplying them with stable voltage even during sudden power spikes. The internal design uses 100% Japanese capacitors for reliable operation and an extended lifespan.
When choosing a suitable PC power supply, the key parameter, besides the form factor, is its power output. This indicates the maximum number of watts the power supply can continuously deliver to the components in your computer. It is a good idea to use an online calculator to work out the optimal power output based on your chosen components.
The power supply fully complies with Intel ATX 3.1 and PCIe Gen 5.1 specifications. These standards define the power supply's ability to handle the high transient loads typical of powerful graphics cards. It includes a native 12VHPWR connector with support for up to 600W, which eliminates the need for adapters and simplifies connecting the most powerful graphics accelerators on the market. The internal circuitry is made up of Japanese capacitors certified for operation at temperatures up to 105°C. This solution contributes to excellent voltage and current filtering, resulting in high stability for the entire build. Using these components increases the reliability of the power supply even under long-term, intensive load and extends its overall lifespan compared to power supplies with standard capacitors.
A 120mm fan with a fluid dynamic bearing, which offers quiet operation and a long lifespan, takes care of heat dissipation. The power supply uses Smart Fan Stop technology, also known as Zero RPM. With this feature, the fan stops completely under low load, allowing the power supply to operate passively and in complete silence. The cooling only activates once a certain load or temperature threshold is exceeded.
The fully modular design simplifies the installation process and cable management inside the computer case. You only connect the cables that are essential for your build. The flat design of the cables makes them easier to route and organise in the space behind the motherboard. This results not only in a cleaner-looking build, but also in better airflow, which helps to cool the other components.
With a depth of just 140mm, this unit is one of the more compact ATX power supplies. Its smaller size makes it easier to install in a wide range of computer cases, including smaller form factors where space for components and cable routing is limited. This leaves more room for handling cables and other parts, simplifying the overall assembly of the build. The power supply integrates a complete set of protections for the safe operation of connected components. These include over-voltage, under-voltage, over-current, overload, short-circuit, and over-temperature protection. This set of mechanisms protects connected components from electrical damage and contributes to the stable and safe operation of the entire computer.
The 80 Plus certification was created to objectively assess the efficiency of PC power supplies. It provides users with a simple and clear way to compare different models. On the European market (where 230V is used), there are six levels of 80 Plus certification, each with set requirements for PC power supplies. Higher energy efficiency primarily means lower energy consumption.
| PC power supply load | Efficiency at 20% load | Efficiency at 50% load | Efficiency at 100% load |
|---|---|---|---|
| 80 PLUS | 82% | 85% | 82% |
| 80 PLUS Bronze | 85% | 88% | 85% |
| 80 PLUS Silver | 87% | 90% | 87% |
| 80 PLUS Gold | 90% | 92% | 89% |
| 80 PLUS Platinum | 92% | 94% | 90% |
| 80 PLUS Titanium | 94% | 96% | 94% |
