Corsair RMx Series 850 W (2021) Review
Cross Load Tests »Noise and Fan Speed (Increased Temperatures)
The fan-speed profile stays relaxed at even high temperatures—under my loading conditions, the fan starts to spin with 350 W load.
Noise and Fan Speed (~30 °C)
With high loads on the minor rails, the fan-stop feature doesn't operate as expected, as the fan operates most of the time. Moreover, the fan-speed profile gets very aggressive once you push the minor rails. This is something I also observed in some Corsair SF models, and it seems the issue has returned. Hopefully, Corsair will address it—the sooner, the better.
