  • The exceptional build quality and the outstanding electrical performance are the primary selling points of the HX850W. Corsair truly built this unit like a tank, choosing one of the latest base designs and some of the most reliable components currently...
  • Unfortunately the use of such small heatsinks made the HX850W a little louder than the rest of the HX series units we reviewed in the past. It operates silently under nominal load, but as the load rises above 60% the unit will become increasingly more ...

  • Justifying its premium branding, the Corsair HX850 comes with a seven-year warranty from local distributor Corbell. It's not cheap however, with an online retail price of around US$195. For that price though, you know what you're in for and the HX850 c...
