[FS] PC Power and Cooling 850w psu $190 shipped

[Paulieg]

I'm selling this for a buddy of mine. He's selling off of his SLI gaming rig to buy a new laptop :eek:. I was going to buy it, but I really don't need the power of this beast. I think it cost him more than $325 new less than a year ago. I've never seen a psu built like this before. It's a freakin' tank. It's rated 850w continuous and 950 peak. 4 12v rails and 85% efficiency.

No pics, as it's still in his rig and he doesn't own a camera. I promise it's in nice shape though, he takes care of his stuff. Can be shipped international for an additional fee.

Here's a review:

I thought PC P&C used single 12v rails?

I thought PC P&C used single 12v rails?

This is from the overclock.com review:

"The 850 SSI has incredibly impressive specs. Typical from PC Power & Cooling is the ±1% voltage regulation and ripple on the main rails, which is as good as it gets. The combined load of the +3.3V and +5V is 200W, more than enough for today’s high-end PC’s which draw most of their current from the +12V rails. The 850 SSI is a quad +12V railed power supply. What this means is that at some point in the power supplies circuitry it will split the +12V power circuit into two individual circuits with each of these powering two of the +12V rails. They will still share core components such as the primary transformer and main rectifier but will commonly have there own separate rectifiers and filters. For more information on this and other power supply myths, please check out the SLI Ready Power Supply Roundup Review. Below is each of the four rails Amp ratings:

+12V1 @ 17A
+12V2 @ 17A
+12V3 @ 17A
+12V4 @ 17A

The combined +12V output on the 850 SSI is 52 amps, that’s 648W of continuous power! To have something to compare this value with, two 7800 GTX cards total about 225W peak and an Athlon FX57 consumes roughly 100W."

Well $190 is high i think. UK prices around 95 pounds NEW.

Umm, should we be bickering about price in the thread....

It's in perfect shape, but no camera currently available to take a picture.
