Gamertell Review: StarTech’s 850 watt WattSmart power supply

gamertell eps power supply pro 850 wattsmart unit

Product: WattSmart 850W EPS12V 2.91 Power Supply
Price: $204.99 (retail)
Rating: 9/10
Pros: Easy to install, dual cooling fans, many long and well-protected cables and promises to be more environmentally friendly by using less power.
Cons: A little pricey and the dual fans can cause a little extra case vibration. Long and thicker cables might be hard for large-handed modders with small cases to handle.
Overall: A good buy for an environmentally-conscious gamer building a rig who also needs a couple hundred extra watts.

    I just replaced a 300 watt ps with a 450 and thought I was really allowing for room to grow….but sheesh, 850 watts??!  Man, that thing is huge. Makes me wonder tho, doesn’t that ps size draw way more power than needed and increase electric bill unneccesarily?

  • Today if u have SLI PC with the 8800GTX U need strong pws
