A. BENEFITS OF PSU WITH 80 PLUS CERTIFICATE
- Saves more energy on electricity
- Less heat dissipation
- Lower noise level
- Cooling cost consumption is also lower and increases system reliability.
- Environmentally friendly
- It is more practical to achieve the highest efficiency value, especially if it has the best 80+ label, between Gold, Platinum and Titanium.

A Power Supply that has an 80 Plus certificate can be said to be more efficient as component electricity costs can be reduced. Efficiency can be said to be the output power produced by the PSU itself. Usually PSUs that do not have the official 80+ label consume more power due to the heating problem which wastes more energy. In contrast to PSUs that have a rating of 80+, these devices waste less power which translates into operational benefits.
