It carries an RTX 5070 Ti or 5080 alongside a Ryzen 9 or Core Ultra 9 with enough headroom left for the transient spikes modern GPUs throw at a PSU during frame-time dips. The ATX 3.1 rating means those spikes are handled to spec rather than tripping over-power protection. If you are running a 5090 or a dual-card workstation, step up to a 1000W or 1200W unit instead; if you are on a 60-class card, you are paying for headroom you will never use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe 16-pin cable matters more than the badge\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA native PCI-E 16-pin cable runs straight from the PSU to a 50-series card with no octopus adapter dangling behind the GPU. That is one less connector to seat badly, and in a mid-tower with a glass side panel it is the difference between a clean build and a mess. The rest of the loom is fully modular, so the three 6+2-pin PCIe leads, five SATA and four peripheral connectors stay in the box unless you need them. Nothing dead is left coiled in the basement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e80 Plus Gold efficiency, which means less waste heat dumped into the case on a hot Highveld afternoon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eATX 3.1 power excursion handling for modern GPU transient loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNative PCIe Gen 5.1 16-pin cable, no adapter required on a 50-series card\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull modular design keeps unused cables out of the chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull protection suite: OPP, OVP, UVP, SCP, OCP and OTP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSPECIFICATIONS:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: PRIME-850G (Prime 850W Gold Black Edition)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal output: 850W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEfficiency: 80 Plus Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eATX standard: ATX 3.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForm factor: ATX12V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotherboard connector: 20+4-pin x 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCPU connector: 4+4-pin x 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePCIe 16-pin (12V-2x6): x 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePCIe 6+2-pin: x 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSATA: x 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeripheral: x 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtections: OPP \/ OVP \/ UVP \/ SCP \/ OCP \/ OTP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 150 x 150 x 86 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCable configuration: fully modular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 8 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWHAT'S IN THE BOX:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eASUS Prime 850W Gold power supply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAC power cord\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotherboard cable (600mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCPU splitter cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePCIe Gen 5.1 16-pin cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePCIe adapter cables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSATA cables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeripheral cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUser manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy ASUS?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eASUS builds its Prime power supplies on the same protection circuitry and component grading it uses in the ROG range, then prices them for people who would rather spend the difference on a better GPU.
