Did you ask the support rep that offered you the HX1200i if they're aware of the issue and if the replacement is without the issue?

Why can't that be right? That's exactly what it does.

I certainly hope Corsair wouldn't be offering higher wattage replacements with the same issue.

Yeah. That's because the inventory at Amazon is all coming from the same container. Contact Corsair and put in a ticket. It's a known issue.

No. It's been fixed at the factory. When you returned it, did you return it to Corsair or from whomever you bought it from?

There is no fix since the firmware of the PSU cannot be flashed.

Ok. The HX1200i only has a new PID because of the additional 8-pin connectors. The correct image needed to show up in iCUE. Everything about that PSU is the same as the old one. Boss man just wanted to bundle the nicer debossed cables with combs.

I don't know why the 1500 isn't showing up. It's not a new PSU. It's just new cables. Should have the same PID. Now, 1200W has a new PID because there's an additional 8-pin connector on the modular interface because the number of 12V-2x6 got increased to two......

Maybe yours doesn't do it? Seriously, it was a very loud minority of five or six users that complained, but they were all over Reddit which amplifies things, so we decided the extra 2 or 3% efficiency boost at 2-5% load wasn't worth it.

1C07 is only for the HX100i with the blue font. The newer one is 1C1E. There are no other PIDs. I found out that the firmware was touched to adjust for a lower standby efficiency (removed the burst mode to rid of the clicking noise some customers reported) and the programmer not only failed...

Well... I can't ship a DediProg SF100 to every user, can I? ;-) Yeah. I was going to WFH today, but after finding a number of missteps made, I'm going to be in the lab noting all of the issues with this firmware. :(

Correct. As 230V has an overall higher efficiency.

I am familiar with Jayz and his testing is very unscientific. He made a lot of assumptions. And he is wrong. He correlated the play in the terminals to "wear and tear", when, in fact, the play in the terminals are there by design. Fun fact! The reason he saw better conductivity the more he...

Same reason as always. If you brick the firmware of a keyboard, you can use another keyboard. If you brick the firmware on the PSU, your whole PSU is down for the count.

Unfortunately, it cannot be updated by the end user. Not sure how important it is to the end user, but I suppose you could send it back if it bothers you. Just give me some time to give the support team a heads up.
