Antec High Current Gamer Modular 850W Power Supply Review

A while ago, we provided you with a review of Antec’s fresh High Current Gamer 750 W unit. Now, it is high time for its bigger brother, the HCG-850M, to hit our test bench and confront our Chroma loads, which will definitely give it a really hard time. Almost all members of the High Current Gamer line, modular or not, are made by Seasonic. The only exceptions are Delta Electronics older HCG-750 and HCG-900 units.
