Lian Li RS Series ATX 3.1 PCIe 5.1 Rotational Shift Black | White Power Supply – RS1000G – RS1200G

Rotational Shift: A New Era of Flexibility

The Lian Li RS Series redefines power supply adaptability with its innovative “Rotational Shift” design. Recognizing that no two PC cases are identical, the RS series features a unique 90° rotatable AC inlet mechanism. This allows builders to orient the power cable connection to suit either standard mounting or vertical installation without stressing the power cord. Further enhancing this flexibility is the revolutionary dual-sided 20+4 pin ATX output. This design allows the main motherboard cable to be routed from either the left or right side of the PSU connector panel, enabling the cleanest possible cable runs regardless of your specific case layout or orientation. (Note: The RS PSU is not compatible with the LANCOOL 207 series due to recessed fan clearance).

Platinum-Level Efficiency in a Gold Package

While carrying an 80 PLUS Gold certification, the RS Series exceeds expectations by delivering real-world efficiency performance comparable to Platinum standards, as verified by Cybenetics. This superior efficiency is driven by German EPCOS industrial-grade capacitors, which ensure long-term reliability and stability under heavy loads. The unit achieves a compact footprint of 150 × 86 × 150 mm while housing a large 135mm Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) fan. This combination allows for a high-density power solution that remains ultra-quiet, earning the prestigious PPLP SSS and Cybenetics A noise certifications. A dedicated Zero RPM fan mode ensures absolute silence during low-load operations.

Advanced Cable Management with Magnetic Clips

The RS Series introduces a novel approach to cable management for builds requiring shorter cable runs, such as back-connect motherboards or side-mounted PSU setups. The unit utilizes ultra-flexible flat cables for the CPU and PCIe connections (excluding the braided 24-pin). Builders can use the included magnetic clips to fold, stack, and secure these cables to the desired length. By layering the flat cables and snapping the magnetic clip in place, excess cable length is neatly managed directly at the source, eliminating cable clutter and improving case airflow.

Next-Gen ATX 3.1 & PCIe 5.1 Connectivity

Prepared for the future of high-performance computing, the RS Series is fully ATX 3.1 ready. It features a native 12V-2×6 connector designed with Lian Li’s exclusive dual-color safety housing. This housing allows users to visually confirm that the connector is fully seated—if you see the color band, it is not plugged in correctly. Internally, the header uses high-current copper alloy terminals with a reinforced structure to lower contact resistance and ensure safe, stable power delivery to next-generation GPUs. Additionally, the 18+10 pin output on the PSU includes an insulated dust cover to protect unused ports from foreign objects.

RS HUB: Simplified Control (Included with RS1200G)

The 1200W models (and select 1000W SKUs) include the modular RS Hub, a compact device (132.5 × 34.7 × 12.7 mm) that streamlines internal connectivity. The hub provides four USB headers capable of supporting up to eight devices, perfect for consolidating RGB controllers and USB accessories. It can be powered directly by the PSU or independently and features a magnetic back for easy placement anywhere inside the chassis. This reduces motherboard clutter and simplifies the wiring of complex lighting and cooling systems.
