MSI MAG PCIE5 A850GL

A powerful and highly efficient next-generation computer power supply with state-of-the-art circuitry, high-efficiency half-bridge DC-DC converters, fully modular cables, a robust set of built-in protections and state-of-the-art circuitry. It is a next-generation model, fully compatible with the PCI-E 5.0 interface and the ATX 3.0 standard. The manufacturer is positioning it as a mid-price product designed to power high-performance gaming systems with top/pre-top models of video cards a la RTX 4060/4070/4080, equipped with a 16-pin power connector.

It has an unusual distinctive feature in the form of power connectors with yellow contacts on both ends of the cable, which clearly shows whether the power cable is fully plugged in or not. This will help avoid the common problem of a melted 16-pin connector on GeForce RTX 4000 video cards. Unlike the original MSI MAG PSU, the MAG PCIE5 has increased efficiency due to which, instead of a bronze quality certificate, it was awarded a gold one.

And at the request of customers, unnecessary cables can now be completely disconnected, so that unnecessary noodles do not dangle inside the case and spoil the view of the backlight. Otherwise, there is maximum similarity with its predecessor. Hidden inside the device is a high-quality element base with a resonant LLC converter, a synchronous rectifier and DC-DC converters. A wide main power line is capable of distributing up to 100% of the total power of the PSU, providing stable and efficient power supply to even very powerful and overclocked hardware such as Core i9 and GeForce RTX 4080. There are also basic protective tools on board, including protection against overvoltage, excess current and short circuit closures.
