Review on ARESGAME AGK850 - 850W Fully Modular 80Plus Gold Certified Power Supply Unit by Sabryna Wickings

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Mixed Results for Me.

I was going to use this to replace my current power supply due to the upgrades I was applying to my system. My PC is a Dell XPS-8930 with Windows 11. The supply passed the self test and I had no problem installing it. But I did run into 2 issues. #1 was that there was no mini-SATA power cable for my optical drive. #2 was that no matter I what I did, I could not get the PC to boot with it. I followed all of the instructions and troubleshooting from the manufacturer to no avail. I will say that the supply and all of the items that came with it appeared to be top notch, so it was sad that I could not make use of it.

Pros
  • Offers active PFC (Power Factor Correction) for improved efficiency
Cons
  • Mediocre thermal performance that may require additional cooling or fans
