Antec Introduces New SF850X SFX 80 Plus Gold Power Supply

Antec Inc., a global leader in high-performance computer components and accessories, is proud to announce the launch of the Antec SF850X Power Supply. This latest addition to Antec's power supply lineup combines compact design with cutting-edge efficiency, delivering reliable power in a small form factor that's perfect for modern, high-performance PCs.

High Efficiency and Reliable Performance
The Antec SF850X Power Supply is designed to meet the demands of today's PC enthusiasts and professionals who require both performance and efficiency. Featuring an 80 Plus Gold certification, the SF850X delivers up to 92% energy efficiency at typical loads, reducing energy consumption and heat generation while ensuring your system runs smoothly. This high level of efficiency not only lowers your electricity bills but also contributes to a greener environment by reducing your PC's carbon footprint.
Compact Design, Powerful Output
Despite its compact size, the SF850X Power Supply does not compromise on power. With a robust 850 W output, this power supply is capable of supporting high-end GPUs, multi-core CPUs, and other power-hungry components, making it ideal for gaming rigs, workstations, and compact builds alike. Its SFX form factor is perfect for smaller cases, giving you more flexibility in your PC design without sacrificing performance.

Fully Modular Design for Easy Installation
The SF850X Power Supply features a fully modular design, allowing you to use only the cables you need. This not only simplifies the installation process but also improves airflow within your case, leading to better overall cooling and a cleaner build. The included high-quality, flat black cables are both flexible and durable, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your PC while ensuring long-term reliability.

Whisper-Quiet Operation
The SF850X is equipped with an intelligent fan control system that ensures quiet operation even under heavy load. The 92 mm FDB (Fluid Dynamic Bearing) fan is designed to minimize noise while maximizing cooling efficiency, providing a virtually silent computing experience. This makes it an excellent choice for users who value a quiet environment, whether they're gaming, creating content, or working.

Advanced Protections for Peace of Mind
Antec have always prioritized reliability and safety, and the SF850X Power Supply is no exception. It features a full suite of industrial-grade protections, including Over Current Protection (OCP), Over Voltage Protection (OVP), Under Voltage Protection (UVP), Short Circuit Protection (SCP), and Over Temperature Protection (OTP). These safeguards ensure that your system remains protected from unexpected power fluctuations and other electrical issues, providing you with peace of mind during intensive tasks.

It is made by FSP, but is actually ATX3.1 not ATX3.0

We need more cases that use SFX, and more focus on smaller designs.

There was some... now with the whole "move the connectors to the back" brigade, the only way to do that is with deeper cases...

Metalfish S5 is about as small as I'd go - ITX I can't stand as it's just too compromised.

No I havent, looked it up. It's alright. I'm not a real fan of deep designs. I was thinking more an updated version of the In Win BK623.



12.5L, updated to support taller GPUs, maybe using a 90 degree PCIe bridge to lay the card sideways inside the case.

if I'm going full ITX, I want something that truly takes advantage of the form factor. Like a third party version of the asrock deskmeet case.

That is good to hear, and I am glad that Antec is getting into the SFX power supply arena. With EVGA going away, we need more companies to step up to the plate in the SFX supply market, especially in the 850-watt and larger area.

There are quite a few mATX chassis that I would recommend you use an SFX power supply due to the lack of cable management, like the Lan-Li A3, Bitfenix M2022 Prodigy and the Jonsbo Z20, and this is just off the top of my head.

Looks like a nice chassis that is a cross between Lan-Li A4 and the Fractal Terra. I do wish someone would make something like the Lan-Li Q58 with the style that Antec did with the 1M.

Historically they've been a bit up and down. Currently a bit on the up side with the Hydro and Aurum ranges... although they have different quality / expense levels in both.
The Hyper range can be a bit of a miss depending on the model.

Strangely enough I'm not specifically a fan of Antec (they've had good and bad products) but I am currently typing this on a PC comprising an Antec P50 case and Antec Earthwatts Gold Pro PSU (Seasonic OEM AFAIK) - both of those items bought years apart and a coincidental combination the PSU replacing an older Antec Basiq Power unit (definitely a Delta unit).

ATX 3.1 is instantly a do not bother further anymore with that product.

Luckily I have a spare surplus ATX 3.0 1050W powersupply. Even with those new NVIDIA cables which I will never need anyway.

Reading further, another dissapointment: "92% energy efficiency" @ unknown Voltage and Power Draw on the Output
