I don't understand why anyone would need an OLED display on a power supply. Anyways, ASUS says they'll release an 850W power supply later this year.

feast your eyes on it's tackeyness

OMG it goes perfect with my build!

It's the black and green accessory I needed

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

I've got my sweet razer themed setup, this PSU is obviously the most stylish thing I could ever imagine

The PSU itself looks really damn good, but I will wait for a proper review of the unit. If the unit isn't perfect, I don't want it.

It's a Prime Platinum (or Prime Ultra Platinum?) with different heatsinks, the silly Asus aesthetic and some monitoring stuff. Should perform well.

Hopefully so. Maybe ASUS did some other tweaks, but that’s assuring it’s based on a modern seasonic platform.

 

This PSU is going to cost a premium that’s for sure.
