Corsair TX850 V2 Power Supply Review
Overload Tests
Contents
Unfortunately, the first sample we receieved burned when we were doing our overload tests (it burned when delivering around 1,000 W). We asked a second sample to the manufacturer, and this sample survived our overload tests. See the results below. We couldn’t pull more than that because the power supply shut down, showing that its protections were working just fine.
