00:00:00.919 --> 00:00:05.640
So today we're going to be having a look at a pretty unique power supply now I'm

00:00:03.919 --> 00:00:09.840
not going to cover this in quite as much detail as I normally would because we've

00:00:07.680 --> 00:00:14.519
actually done a full Tech tips episode on it in the past which you can check

00:00:11.920 --> 00:00:16.840
out by clicking the little bubble okay so we're breaking the seal here this is

00:00:15.879 --> 00:00:21.600
the cp850 and what is unique about this

00:00:19.320 --> 00:00:27.199
particular power supply unit is that it is not an ATX standard power supply so

00:00:24.840 --> 00:00:31.720
this is a semi modular power supply and I say that because it's a modular power

00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:35.800
supply that actually has a lot of connectors hardwired to it so it comes

00:00:33.440 --> 00:00:41.079
with a power cord comes with a product overview uh manual thingy here there it

00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:45.960
tells you all your different connectors and all that good stuff okay then it

00:00:43.280 --> 00:00:49.199
comes with a baggie of modular cables so let's have a look at which modular

00:00:47.440 --> 00:00:55.079
cables we have included with this power supply there are quite a few actually

00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:58.399
okay we got another another tie here

00:00:55.079 --> 00:01:01.680
undo okay so we have a couple PCI

00:00:58.399 --> 00:01:04.479
Express s pins we we've got uh two

00:01:01.680 --> 00:01:08.360
different SATA connectors okay each with three SATA connectors on it and then we

00:01:06.600 --> 00:01:13.799
have a couple of Molex ones okay so those each have three MOX okay so those

00:01:10.479 --> 00:01:17.560
are our modular power supply cables then

00:01:13.799 --> 00:01:21.680
on the PSU itself okay I've got a little

00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:23.520
uh oh I hate these reusable zip tie

00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:28.240
things they're like impossible to take off in any sort of timely fashion okay

00:01:26.680 --> 00:01:33.399
there we go so attached to the power supply itself we have a couple more PCI

00:01:31.079 --> 00:01:39.200
Express so these are six plus two pin then we have three Molex and three SATA

00:01:36.360 --> 00:01:44.119
and then we also have a four pin an 8 Pin EPs and a 24 pin now let's have a

00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:50.600
look at the power supply itself because that is the interesting thing about the

00:01:47.079 --> 00:01:53.920
cp850 that it is a completely

00:01:50.600 --> 00:01:57.280
non-standard size power supply so I mean

00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:59.520
this thing is like huge in a way that

00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:03.360
even a large power supply is not huge I mean look at my hand on the back of this

00:02:01.200 --> 00:02:09.360
thing so you can actually see it's got two pcbs inside for two completely

00:02:06.479 --> 00:02:13.400
separately wired up power supply sort of segments and the reason for that is that

00:02:11.640 --> 00:02:17.440
that way antech is able to build down from the top and up from the bottom

00:02:15.239 --> 00:02:22.160
which gives much better cooling from the 120 mm fan that's on the other end of

00:02:20.319 --> 00:02:25.840
the unit now you can see why I call it semi modular here because you've got a

00:02:23.920 --> 00:02:29.959
lot of attached cables and then you've only got two more peripheral cables so

00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:35.400
you can do two more Molex two more SAA or one of each and then two more PCI

00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:36.959
Express connectors on the modular

00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:43.480
interface so it's not a whole lot of modularity now in terms of uh output it

00:02:40.640 --> 00:02:51.519
is an 850 W power supply and you've got four 12volt rails each capable of 22

00:02:47.640 --> 00:02:53.760
22 25 and 25 amps respectively so thank

00:02:51.519 --> 00:02:57.680
you for checking out my unboxing and product overview of the cp850 power

00:02:56.080 --> 00:03:00.680
supply and there are some screws too there
