Cooler Master V Platinum 3000 power supply review: Verified Platinum efficiency for workstations, with a stellar 12-year warranty

Cooler Master introduces the V Platinum 3000 Workstation power supply, a high-performance unit targeting multi-GPU AI development and rendering workstations. Announced in July 2026, the V Platinum 3000 boasts a single 12V rail rated at 250A and twelve PCIe 6+2 connectors, making it a contender for the multi-kilowatt category alongside SilverStone's Hela 3000RZ and Thermaltake's AX-3200.

The power supply features a 202 mm chassis, a twelve-year warranty, and operates at 220-240 VAC, drawing up to 16A through an IEC C20 inlet. It doesn't support 115 VAC operation, which means all testing was conducted at 230 VAC. Specifications and design highlight the V Platinum 3000's robustness, with a 140 mm ZI.C ZFB142512E fan handling cooling. It doesn't come with an AC power cable or cable management hardware, selling design over convenience.

SKILL.md is not a compiler

If you use Cursor long enough, you will watch it ignore a rule you wrote down. You add a SKILL.md. You tell it "no explicit any". You maybe add a hook. It agrees. Then it ships id: any anyway.
