XPG CORE REACTOR COREREACTOR850G-BKCUS 850W Power Supply - Internal - 850 W - 1 Fan(s) - 90% Efficiency
XPG CORE REACTOR COREREACTOR850G-BKCUS 850W Power Supply - Internal - 850 W - 1 Fan(s) - 90% Efficiency

Pros: Feels smaller than some PSU I have used and is light with easy to bend and plug in cables. Simple installation. Looks really nice if visible in your case. The fan vent has a nice shiny XPG in the center. It's not a sticker.

Cons: Doesn't have a lot of SATA power space.

Overall Review: I don't need too many sata powered components and the cables are on the shorter side. This is perfect for my own mid tower build. I do get an audible click when turning power and off. Not sure if that's normal but there are no issues so far.

Looks great, Convenient parts, Inconvenient placements.

Pros: The fans are great that are built in. Fan mounts are removable and interchangeable with front and top. Metal Frame, all glass panels. Has additional ARGB/RGB connectors for the case. Radiator mounting is flexible.

Cons: Only 2 USB and mini USB. 1 Audio Jack. Top fan mounting is very low and close to the motherboard. Radiator with fans will cover the top of the motherboard and with a high DRAM slot placement on the MB It can also interfere with installation. Difficult to remove PCIE slots from the back and screw positions for fan mount under or against the frame of the case. Recommend a long screw driver.

Overall Review: The case looks simple and clean on the outside. If you're fussy with finger prints you will be cleaning the glass side panels all the time while building it. So don't take off the protective film on the glass until you're all done setting it up. The fan mounts are very nice to remove and replace if swap the top the and front panel. But the preinstalled ARGB fans will be a mess to deal with if you remove the front. They are twist tied together with the other front panel cables. Tons of space for PSU and cables at the bottom. Removable drive HDD drive bay and additional SSD mounts on the reverse side. Be careful with radiator size for the front and top panel. My biggest issue was with the top panel mounting covering the CPU power and top pins of the motherboard. Very tight fit but looks very nice if you make it work. There is plenty of space for cable management on the reverse side. I did also have an issue with very tight factory screws so I used a power tool to undo them. I would definitely get another XPG case but I don't recommend it as a beginner PC build.

Stylish and Pretty

XPG SPECTRIX D60G RGB Desktop Memory: 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 4133MHz CL19 GREY
XPG SPECTRIX D60G RGB Desktop Memory: 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 4133MHz CL19 GREY

Pros: Soft diffusers for the rgb look great. Fit next to each other with a little bit of space.

Cons: The Grey is more of light silver and is not a darker black as in the product display picture. They are taller components with rgb diffusers.

Overall Review: Matches well with other XPG products. Stylish and pretty aesthetic more than any other feel you may be going for with your pc build/theme. With my case build the AIO radiator with fans sits right on top of them with literally a hair of space. This is more of the case placement of components issue than any issue with the ram sticks themselves but is something to watch out for.

All the ARGB looks you could want.

Pros: ARGB worked right away. Compatible with connecting to other ARGB components. Usable without ARGB.

Cons: Needs that mini usb cable to connect to ARGB extensions or headers. Extra cable management. They are a little thicker if you're worried about space to fit them on reverse side of a case or with smaller atx builds.

Overall Review: The soft type diffusers match well with other soft rgb diffuser. It is a little thicker with its diffuser and design cover. Shouldn't be much of an issue with most pc cases. I didn't find any larger than 1TB at the time but i have never used more than 3 TB.

Basic quality AIO. Wonderful ARGB

XPG LEVANTE RGB Liquid CPU Cooler: 240mm Radiator 2 x 120mm Fans
XPG LEVANTE RGB Liquid CPU Cooler: 240mm Radiator 2 x 120mm Fans

Pros: Everything worked out of the box. Mounting was simple ARGB fans work, Will chain connect to other ARGB components. Swivel tubes on the pump convenient. SUPPORTS INTEL SOCKET 1200

Cons: Add Headers needed on the mother board don't forget. Default cooling speeds could be better definitely not good for heavy overclocking with higher watt CPU. Manual does not tell which screws to use for socket 1200.

Overall Review: Looks beautiful, its very light weight compared to other AIO I have used. Careful when setting the pump connection ring so you keep the XPG logo at the angle you want. The 1200 Socket type is supported as I have seen on XPG main website (It hasn't been properly updated in specifications). Use the 115X/1366 mounting options for socket 1200.
