A couple of years ago, the Taiwanese brand Gigabyte got tired of dealing exclusively with motherboards and video cards, so it was decided to start expanding into other component markets ― SSD drives, monitors, keyboards and power supplies. All products were combined within the framework of the Aorus gaming line, the main feature of which was the combination of advanced technical buns with a reasonable pricing policy. Usually, products for overclocking fans and enthusiasts are expensive.


The Aorus power supplies that debuted in 2019 initially caused skepticism in the gaming community, which quickly changed to excitement and admiration. This is not surprising: when else on the market will you find a 750-watt Hi-End PSU with elite circuitry, 90% efficiency, a semi-passive cooler on a double ball bearing, a full set of protections and a 10-year warranty at a price slightly above a hundred dollars?

The range of Gigabyte power supplies is relatively small, but there are solutions for both the most economical and well-off users. The dominant position in this line is occupied by the Gigabyte Aorus power supply with the prefix "GP-AP" in the header. This is an extremely interesting model with a gold quality certificate, which in most cases surpasses other models of the 80+ Gold format.

Gigabyte Aorus is equipped with a power factor corrector with an extended voltage range, and circuitry based on Japanese capacitors provides optimal input voltages with low ripple levels and maintaining operability with a noticeable overload of the main line. We can safely say that Gigabyte Aorus will become a reliable basis for a powerful gaming system with a pair of performant graphics cards and manual overclocking of CPU and RAM.
