Overall the CS850M series power supplies seem to be of nice build quality with good aesthetics and features. Combined with the gold factor -- the Gold certified model at 90% efficiency at 50% load / 92% at 230V -- the PSU seems to be rock solid. Our test...
With the current price tag, Corsair's CS850M faces tough competition. The PSU offers decent performance and high efficiency, however a small price drop would make it a much better buy. Aris Mpitziopoulos is a Contributing Editor for Tom's Hardw...
solid voltage regulation, very high low load efficiency, very good build quality, semimodular, very good to excellent ripple suppression
nothing
Back when I reviewed the CX750M, I came away with the impression that it was a rather uncompetitive product in today's marketplace, and urged all my readers to take a strong look at the CS series instead. Today's review showed us exactly why. The CX line ...

Very good voltage regulation (the three primary rails are ±2%), Very good efficiency across a broad range of loads (80Plus Gold certified), Very quiet operation through mid power levels, 12V output can deliver up to 70.8A (849.6W), Active PFC with univers
3Year warranty, Sleeve bearing cooling fan, A few additional cables/connectors might be nice at this power level
The CS850M power supply is the new king of the hill in Corsair's CS Modular series, which now ranges from 450W up to 850W. The CS Modular Series is positioned towards the high-side in the middle of Corsair's numerous power supply offerings, targeting user...
Good performance, Small form factor and modular cables, 80PLUS Gold certified, 3-year warranty, Runs pretty quiet
Not Corsair link compatible, No Zero RPM fan mode
One thing that I really like about this power supply is that Corsair kept it small, so it will be very easy to install in any case that supports ATX power supplies. Also it is semi-modular and it uses flat cables. This means you only use the cables that y...

Solid all round performance, reasonably quiet below 600W load, good cabling, quality finish
Not a fully modular design, 3 year warranty, not 5, Chinese capacitors in secondary stage, Corsair's range of power supplies and models is becoming very saturated.
As we head into 2015 there are a staggering range of power supplies available in every price zone. The Corsair CS850M is a solid addition to the CS range – it doesn't excel in any area, but it also doesn't exhibit any particular weakness either.There is n...
