Mixed6.5/10Mid-range

NZXT's C-series PSUs are adequate rebadged units that look good in NZXT builds, but they rarely lead on value or performance. A 2026 recall of mis-wired SATA cables for one US C1500 batch did not help confidence.

Good at

C-series Gold units are compact and tidy-looking
ATX 3.1 models with 12V-2x6 cables
Matches NZXT cases and cooling for one-brand builds

Weak at

2026 recall: swapped-wire SATA cables in one C1500 batch
Built by outside OEMs; quality varies by generation
Usually priced above equal Corsair or MSI units
