About this deal

After almost three years in production, Corsair decided to update its popular RMx line. There are again five members with capacities ranging from 550 W to 1000 W. All are fully modular, and the OEM is still Channel Well Technology. Listed below are the crucial changes over the RMx 2018 units with the RMx 2021 revision: My favorite feature about it is the zero RPM fan mode that offers near-silent operation at low to medium loads. Pros: After deciding on the PSU wattage, the next thing you need to consider is the form factor. They’ll either come in the ATX or SFX form factor. Once you have decided on the form factor and modular design, the next thing you need to consider is the efficiency rating you can afford.

Corsair's new RM (without the "x") line consists of three members with capacities ranging from 650W to 850W. All of them are more affordable versions of the corresponding RMx models, which we expect to be updated in the near future to be fully compatible with the latest ATX specification. The RM units mostly use Chinese Elite caps, which are of decent quality, instead of the superior Japanese Nichicon and Chemi Cons and employ Hong Hua rifle bearing fans instead of Corsair's more-powerful NR135L. These changes might not be welcome by PSU enthusiasts, but the fact is that they don't seem to affect the product's lifetime since Corsair provides exactly the same warranty period (ten-years), in both RM and RMx units.Supports Modern Standby sleep mode for extremely fast wake-from-sleep times and better low-load efficiency. The 80 Plus efficiency rating has since expanded in recent years to categorize different PSUs from the least to the most efficient. I presume you already have the estimated total wattage that your PC will draw, and an 850W PSU is the ideal power supply unit to complete the build.

Primary side: Half-Bridge & LLC converter Secondary side: Synchronous Rectification & DC-DC converters DC-DC Converters: 2x UBIQ QM3054M6 (30V, 61A @ 100°C, 4.8mOhm) & 2x UBIQ QN3107M6N (30V, 70A @ 100°C, 2.6mOhm) PWM Controllers: uPI SEMI uP3861P But SFX PSUs come in smaller designs to fit in small form factor (SFF) cases because they don’t have the space needed to fit a full-size ATX PSU. ATX 3.0 is the new specification standard for PSUs. This new design adds a new PCIe 5.0 connector with 12 + 4 pins alongside the usual 6 or 8-pin connection.I recommend getting a fully modular PSU since it offers total control of your build’s cable management. Efficiency Rating The 80 Plus Gold efficiency rating is usually the sweet spot for most gaming PC builds. Anything above this is overkill and quite expensive! ATX 3.0 Compatible It’s almost impossible to find a non-modular 850W PSU. But some manufacturers design semi-modular ones which are affordably priced. Almost all PSU manufacturers design PSUs with the 80 Plus efficiency rating certification. The “80 Plus” rating system is the industry standard!

A non-modular PSU has all the cables permanently attached, while a fully modular design has no cables attached. The new connector is meant to make the power supply PCIe 5.0 ready. They have high power delivery for GPUs with up to 600W of power.Reliable and efficient low-noise power supply with fully modular cabling, so you only have to connect the cables your system build needs. I know it's not that evident in the video, but I managed to get the moment it starts up in a voice recording (0:03) : https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1AX08uPUrxnzy9zlbAVo8QEyvGD82gGdI?usp=sharing Since the new era GPUs require more power— especially the RTX 4000 series, an ATX 3.0 PSU ensures your build is future-proofed for power-hungry GPUs.
