GIGABYTE PSU

AYDANN6ix9ine · February 2, 2019

I see some GIGABYTE PSU on sites like Amazon and Newegg but higher end models like the Aorous P850W Full Modular 80+ Gold PSU, which look pretty good, I can't find on sites primarily based in the United States. Are these PSUs sold outside the United States?

Not sure, but I've never heard of a Gigabyte PSU. They might be good, but I wouldn't get one until you're certain they're decent units.

Unlike ASUS that just rebranded a Seasonic Prime 1200W Platinum on the market with their "ROG" brand and charged a 150$~ extra on top of it, Gigabyte actually started a brand new project with the OEM known as "Meic".

Their Aorus P850 seems to be about as good as a Corsair RM850x and is perfectly usable, just not worth the extra hassle for it unless you want a full Aorus build for w/e reason.

The Gigabyte PSUs are primarily for the Asian market.
