XFX Core Edition PRO850W (P1-850S-NLB9) 850W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Certified CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC Power Supply

Pros: -has all the connectors you would want
-runs almost silent
-works

Been working like a champ for three months now even tho Im pulling 820w from it non stop. :)

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: People told me I could run my set up with a 850w psu, but I found out in my case that doesn't allow alot of ocing head room. Might have to amp up for a 1k w in the furture just for ocing but I still love this psu.

Pros: More than enough power for my needs, more than enough connections to plug all my peripherals up to power.

Cons: Lots of cables see other thoughts.

Other Thoughts: I put this PSU in an mATX case, I would recommend that if you were looking to do the same fork out the extra money and get the modular (or even semi-modular) version of this same PSU. It will save you a lot of hassle using only the cables that you need instead of all of them.

Pros: This thing is the quietest part in my rig, chucks out the heat from running my video cards and OC'd processor no problem. Has 2 6+2 and 2 6 pin pcie connectors. All wires are sleeved until about an inch from the end. Lots of connectors.(see cons)

Cons: Too many sata power cables! This thing has like ten! W T F! Not a con I guess, but you run out of room to hid em all fast, with that I suggest a case with 1-2 inches cable management room behind the motherboard tray.

Other Thoughts: Looks really freaking cool in and system from the grey colour scheme!

Pros: Steady power
Plenty of connectors
Doesn't get hot

Cons: Wires galore

Other Thoughts: Great PSU, it powers my AMD fx-8120, a water cooling loop, 2 6870's, 3 hdd's and an ssd with no problem what so ever. Never had it drop power randomly or act funny. Wish it was modular cause there are tons of wires that i had to tie down behind the mobo wall but still a great PSU

Pros: It's affordable. You won't lose your lunch over this product. It also covers any basic gamer gear, in regards to power.

Cons: It's pretty annoying with the cords spewing everywhere. I would have imagined that they would have fixed that issue before shipping it.

Other Thoughts: Try buying a different company's product. The customer service isn't really that enjoyable, the products are "meh", and the variability between the same products is too high for a cautious consumer to risk. This is actually my 4th product from this company, and I can't say I am thrilled to have bought from them (lower to higher priced items)

Pros: Installed easily into my large RaidMax Smilidon case. Plenty of connectors. Good length on cables. Powers my system well.

Cons: None so far

Other Thoughts: The case was put together really well and meets the size specifications for a standard ATX power supply. There are no hidden gremlins in this unit. Fits well and works great.

Pros: You can read the features that it has. So no use in telling you again. I can my supply worked upon arrival, and has no problems for about 6 months now.

Cons: None yet

Pros: -when it works its great

-good costumer service

Cons: -slightly too many cables but its my fault for being cheep and not going modular

-after only a couple of weeks the fan started rattling and only got worse (stangely enough this also happened on the cpu of my other build) however when replaced it worked perfectly, i also might add their costumer service is quite good however quality is a down for this product (or maby it was just my bad luck)

Other Thoughts: -I'm giving this 4 stars or egg things giving it the benefit of the doubt because although the PSU on both of my machines started making noise because of their fan, the PSUs were of different brands and the fans that started to rattle were of different sizes witch leads me to believe that i just have really bad luck or that all companies making PSUs have gone down in quality

-don't get more wattage then needed for all the new builders out there most cases don't require an 850 and going with sli or crossfire means you'll probably need more than 850 watts

-don't be cheap

Pros: great power supply has more cables then i need but more is better than less tell you whats unacceptable is the box the the item was shiped in was fine but the box the supply was in looked like cr*p beat all up no plastic wrap around item at all looks like a returned item or open box item or maybe a used item who knows

Cons: none for xfx

Other Thoughts: could not send back because of package rma process would take forever so i will have to enjoy my used item

Pros: Most of the pros are what are listed in the description. Very quiet, handles two ati radeon hd 6800s just fine. The warranty on it is amazing even tho i dont think ill ever use it because its built by XFX.

Cons: The price is always a con. If you really want a good solid psu this is worth the extra money

Other Thoughts: Great first psu if you are building a desktop for your first time
