The performance of all of the tested power supplies are good or very good across the board. The Be quiet! Pure Power 9 CM 700W and the Cooler Master MasterWatt Lite 700W drop down a little bit too far with their voltage on the 12 volt rail at high load, b...

At the risk of being a bit dull, just as in earlier power supply tests we can state that in this day and age you have to make a serious effort to purchase a truly bad PSU. In particular in the class as discussed in this test. However, that does not mean...

Antec's High Current Pro Platinum is a very niche piece of kit. As we've explained this is effectively a server-grade power supply built into a consumer package and this can be seen from the quality of the construction as well as the performance. The Ante...

There is no doubt that the Delta designed High Current Pro Platinum range of power supplies are class leading. These power supplies are almost faultless and capable of delivering sustained power delivery in excess of their rating. The Antec High Current P...

Through the course of this review we have established that Antec charges a reasonable premium for its High Current Pro Platinum PSUs when compared to other similar supplies on the market. You can purchase a 1,000W Platinum-rated supply for the same price...

The performance of the HCP-850 Platinum is exceptional in almost every way. The ripple suppression is outstanding, it runs very cool and the electrical efficiency is stunning by today's standards. The cooling scheme is a bit aggressive, making the HCP-850...
The Antec HCP-850 Platinum is the second High Current Pro Platinum power supply we have reviewed and, while being a very good unit today, it does come with its caveats. To start things off with, the build quality is simply second to none so there is no re...

One of the first things that you will notice about the Antec HCP-850 Platinum is the odd cable configuration on the PSU side. Antec set up their pinouts on the PSU for future cable changes so that the same PSU could be used for years to come with only t...
