You see that makes no sense.... because my AX1200 doesnt do that..
I was referring to electrical cable standards, for 220V some countries require that type of connectors.
Al types of high power devices require big plugs in my country.
Here any imported electrical device must approve electrical certification, and I understand that X manufacturer that want worldwide approval use the standard that fits the product.
If the PSU sucks or don’t was not my point there.
Now on PSU, I use my machine for gaming and work, and OC too. (4 ssd raid0, 4 2tb raid 5, 2 gtx 480 etc., before the ssds 4 SCSI 1500RPM where there)
I use lots of disks ind raid 0 and raid 5 since 2001.
I get tired of changing PSU almost 1 per year (and fine ones), my X3 1600 have worked very well, I got this one when they first came out, can’t talk about another x3 or if they make crap after this one.
Multi PSU I have use sometimes, but not now, and I am open to that option.
When not gaming I run virtual machines (lab environments for migrations)
Today we have PSU of great quality, and reviews. In the old days you choose the psu for how much they weight.
and the quality of the power that you feed the psu is another thing to think about.
PD : another PSU that give me fine results was Enermax Galaxy 1000 Watt.
