Quality PSU manufactured by Seasonic. Will handle most Gaming requirements.
Fully modular ATX PSU manufactured by Seasonic but branded ASUS with additonal heatsinks.This is a quality PSU that will suit the vast majority of gamers that aren't running absolute top-end CPU and GPU combinations, It runs 550W on the 12v rail alone so will push 550 - 650W at full load (although I wouldn't recommend that for a long time) As manufactured by Seasonic you get the usual high quality and features with Asus ROG branding and some nice magnetic cover plates. |s rated Gold efficiency so really all that anyone would need. The fan has a switch that allows it to be off under low loads therby rendering the PSU silent. Cables are modular and standard sizes with flat cables for MOLEX and SATA connections. Included cables allow 2x 8 pin E-ATX CPU connectors and 2 X 8 pin PCI-E so will suit 99% of systems along with the usual SATA and MOLEX and 24 pin motherboard connection. Obvioulsy it allows you to manage your cable easier if you aren't running a full system or are using M2 SSD'sOverall the quality is superb and although there are cheaper PSU's most tend to be semi modular or of lower quality.I paired this with a £54 Lian LI 205M case and can honestly say this should be the minimum base requirement for any gaming system.Note I probably wouldn't run a 2080Ti plus overclocked Intel i9 or AMD threadripper at this wattage as you would be getting close to 100% loading, but anything less would be fine.

Very quiet and does what it needs to do.
I'm planning a major upgrade to my PC so currently deciding on a new processor, motherboard and memory. I did a few calculations and realised my 450w PSU is not going to cut it and is probably on the edge having already added a heap of RGB and water cooling recently. This ROG Strix 850w PSU looks way too nice to be hidden, but that's just how it is with my case having a separate chamber for the PSU and cabling plus things like commander pro's and various headers for the RGB and fan controller. I've put some load on my PC and cannot hear this ROG PSU at all and it runs nice and cool. The unboxing experience is probably the highlight as it comes beautifully packaged with a black woven bag for the PSU and another for the modular cables. Also includes are magnetic graphics and ROG stickers for the PSU for those who have it visible. I used the smaller stickers elsewhere on my case. There are cable ties included and ROG velcro cable straps x 4 plus the screws to install it. Two mains cables, one UK and another for use in other regions. It comes with ten year warranty and a discount voucher for custom cables. I've read that some say this PSU is pricey, I personally looked at the detailed specs and figured my whole PC is a doorstop without a reliable PSU and didn't really think it stood out price wise for a similar spec unit. Very happy with the purchase and thoroughly recommend.

Failed after 10 months
Mine ended up failing. For a little over 10 months, I had no issues with this PSU, though the fan did have a somewhat noticeable rattle when not in the 0db mode. Unfortunately, this week, it stopped working entirely and will no longer power on. I verified this was the fault by running it through an ATX PSU tester, as well as in a separate rig. I'll now be returning for a refund rather than a swap.

Does what it’s meant to do
Had to replace a Corsair 800 PSU, got the 650 version of this because I was fed up of things breaking so would pay more for a less powerful unit.This is my first modular PSU and found it so easy to install, and just installing the cables you need makes it so much tidier in the case.Looks good with its accessories if you can see inside the case, comes with aesthetic magnets instead of stickers so you can place them in your case if you want to.Solved all my problems, run an Asus Mobo, i5, 5700XT, 3 SSDs and 20gb of RAM and works like a charm.The option to have the fan only spin when needed makes it super quiet.

Another Amazing ASUS product!
This is a great PSU that will suited my tower configuration well! I always buy ASUS products as their quality in my experience is far superior of that of other brands. I have had my pcs last for years and all components being ASUS. So never regret paying a lit more for having the performance and sustainabily that I aim for.
