Gigabyte UD850GM PG5 Modular Power Supply Review

 

Packaging

Inside the box, you’ll find the PSU unit, a power cord for the wall, a few mounting screws, and a bunch of PCIE power cables in a plastic bag.There’s no pounch for the cables, something I wished Gigabyte should have included.

 

The Cables

As you can see below, you get the full set of cables which includes 1 x Molex, 2 x SATA, 1 x 24-pin ATX power for the motherboard, 3 x 8-pin PCIE cables for the CPU/motherboard and graphics cards. And finally, inside the box, you’ll find 1 x PCIe 5.0 cable featuring the new 16-pin connectors for next-gen graphics cards (with a rating of 600W).

 

A Closer Look

The power supply unit looks and feels pretty solid. There’s no Zero fan on/off mode, just a power on/off switch. It’s quite compact measuring just 150 x 140 x 86 mm.

The power supply is fully modular with 1 x 12VHPWR connector for next-gen graphics cards, 3 x 8-pin PCIE connectors for motherboard and graphics card, and 3 x 6-pin power connectors for SATA power and 4-pin Molex. For cooling, you’ll find a 120mm silent fan on the top.

 

Installation

Because the power supply is small and compact, it should fit in most, if not all chassis. We didn’t encounter any issues during installation.
