GameMax, a growing brand in PC gaming components, has launched its latest power supply unit, the GameMax GX-850 PRO, which integrates the newest PCIe 5.1 and ATX 3.1 standards. Designed to support both Intel and AMD platforms, including the upcoming AMD X870 motherboards, this PSU is built with gamers and content creators in mind. It features 80 Plus Gold efficiency and a robust +12V rail, making it suitable for powering high-end PC configurations.
GameMax recently launched the N80 Chassis with a dual-chamber design for better cooling and cable management. Along with the GX-850 PRO, it reinforces their focus on high-performance, stylish components. More details here.
The GX-850 PRO is equipped with native 12V-2×6 16-pin connectors, supporting the latest NVIDIA RTX graphics cards. Its fully modular design allows users to minimize cable clutter, making it ideal for clean and organized PC builds. To match various setups, the power supply comes in black and white models. In addition to the 850W version, the GameMax GX PRO Series includes 1050W and 1250W variants, catering to power users and extreme overclockers. The entire series is backed by a 10-year warranty.
The +12V rail of the GX-850 PRO delivers power for demanding graphics cards, while the DC-DC circuitry ensures stable voltage under varying loads. The MPS1213 chip provides advanced LLC control for performance optimization, while the MPS6924 chip ensures efficient rectification. The UP3861 chip manages DC-DC conversion with a 180-degree phase shift, minimizing the impact on the +12V input and reducing ripple and noise.
Efficiency is a key feature of the GX-850 PRO, boasting 80 Plus Gold certification with up to 90% efficiency in power conversion. It uses Japanese Nichicon 105°C capacitors, which provide reliability and longevity, even under heavy use. A silent FDB fan with a spiral blade design enhances airflow while keeping noise levels low, making it an excellent choice for users who want both performance and quiet operation.
Safety is prioritized with multiple protection features, including Overvoltage (OVP), Undervoltage (UVP), Overcurrent (OCP), Short Circuit (SCP), Over Power (OPP), and Over Temperature Protection (OTP). The PSU is certified by several international standards, including CB, TUV, cTUVus, CE, LVD, and FCC, ensuring it meets safety and performance requirements.
Priced at US$119.90, the GameMax GX-850 PRO is available now in black and white models, with a 10-year warranty. It can be purchased through GameMax Amazon stores and partner retailers worldwide, offering a compelling option for those building high-performance gaming PCs or content creation workstations.
