Lepa G1000 MB

Small size, big Power

Overview

This should be expected though as the company is Enermax’s own house brand of power supplies and are essentially rebranded units with different fan grills and logos. Aside from that, you can expect no differences from a Lepa branded power supply and one from Enermax, with the exception of a few extra goodies in the box.

The unit we have on the test bench today is the Lepa G1000 MB. It is a 1000W power supply rated at 80 PLUS Gold efficiency with both native a modular cabling. After taking a look at the unit, we came to realize that it is simply a rebrand of the Enermax Revolution87+ which we reviewed here.

The difference seems to be that this time around, Lepa also changed the case. As such, we expect it to perform almost identical to what we saw before and would be disappointed otherwise.
