We’re putting the new Deepcool DQ850-M-V2L power supply on our test bench today. It received 80 Plus certification already in December 2019 and appeared on the manufacturer’s website in April. It’s a black design 850 Watt model, with an 80 PLUS Gold certificate again, which means that it’s 90% efficient at 50% load @ 115 V, and even 92% efficient @ 230 V.

Seasonic Connect 750 W PSU review
Posted by: on: 06/12/2020 01:56 PM [
22 comment(s) ]
Remember that Seasonic Connect power supply? We have it on our test bench for a review today. It was finally introduced to the market on the 4th of March, after a long wait (they first presented it two years ago, at Computex 2018). It’s a brand new approach to the desktop PSU idea. Why’s that? Because this time you don’t receive everything integrated into a single unit, but two “modules” instead. One is a Seasonic PRIME 750 W 80 PLUS Gold certified power supply, and the other is the CONNECT device, which is essentially a backplane that is mounted to the PC case with magnets to provide connections for all the components. You need only two cables to link these segments together.

We review the Corsair HXi Series 750 Watt PSU, this beast has moved from Gold towards being 80plus Platinum certified. So that means it is fully modular and optimized for silence and high efficiency. The power supply is quite delicious in performance, the one massive 63 Amp 12-volts says it all really. Superb for mainstream to high-end and even multi-GPU solutions. Corsair also embeds their LINK technology into the PSU. That means you can monitor the PSU with the help of software, things like PSU efficiency, power usage or simply to adjust the fan RPM. We'll show you that in the review though.

We review the Antec 850 HCP Platinum power supply. The HCP series have received an upgrade (High Current Pro) and this 850W model WAS their gold model but is replaced with this version, Platinum certified, meaning the PSU can pimp and show off its most efficient power supply label available in this bizz. Next to that some smaller changes have been applied as well.
