Review on Cooler Master V850 SFX Gold Full Modular, 850W Power Supply, 80 Plus Gold Efficiency, ATX Bracket Included, Quiet FDB Fan, SFX Form Factor, 10-Year Warranty by Chris Hodges

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Terrible internal fan curve

After warming up, the fan speed increases from 0 to 100 when the load is over 15%. Completely useless at this noise level in a quiet SFFPC. UPDATE: They got back to me 1 month after I submitted the RMA and let me pay for the return shipping. Keep that in mind when comparing this to the SF750. For now, I would prefer the SF750. UPDATE 2: For those of you stuck with this PSU, I removed the fan, installed a Noctua 92x14mm and routed the cable from the outside to the motherboard connector. That was cheaper than sending it in for an RMA. Note: Before disassembling, unplug the power cord and let it discharge for half an hour. One of the screws is under the "Warranty Void When Removed" sticker.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • So far so good
