Corsair RM850x (2021) Review - Setting the Standards in the 850W Gold Category

You will find the review of the new RM1000x here: TechPowerUp review of the RM850x: Tom’s Hardware review of the RM1000x: The new Corsair RMx PSUs have ASM compatibility and perform as well as their predecessors while improving them in some key areas, including efficiency at very light and light loads. The ML fan is a great addition. Not that the riffle-bearing fan on the previous generation wasn’t good, on the contrary, but ML fans are better since they do not have any problems operating under high operating temperatures for prolonged periods. Another significant change is the additional EPS connector with the 850 W and 1000 W models. I can’t help but wonder which CPU will need this many EPS connectors. Competition in the 850 W Gold category is fierce. Still, the Corsair RM850x performs well, placing third in my relative performance
