Abstract: We’ll be talking in this review about four PSUs with a wattage rating of 800 to 860 watts. Such products are the most popular choice for top-end gaming systems that are not pushed to the extremes in configuration and overclocking. A PSU like that can e...
Final Words & Conclusion Decent is the word that comes to mind when I think about the Corsair GS800 PSU, now the product itself has been on the market for quite a while already. But this particular model is popular and mentioned by our readers quite ...
Abstract: Another power supply has hit our testbench and this time we have a look at the GS800 from Corsair. A brand new good looking power supply, featuring a whole 800W of raw power with an 80 Plus Bronze certification.The GS800 comes in a stylish and well p...
Low noise level, LED can be turned off, Small, Price
Rails could be more stable
The GS800 has actually performered way better than I expected it to do, I have here in Sweden seen it go for as low as 70$ on sale which means this is a “bang for the buck” unit. Newegg has this unit for 99$ after a mail in rebate but this is not on s...
Delivered full power at 50°C, Fanless operation at low loads, Efficient (for an 80 PLUS Bronze unit), Very low consumption in standby mode, Nice look, LED fan (for those that fancy lighted fans)
Price is on the high side, Only one EPS connector, Noisy fan (at full speed), Warranty could be longer
Another Corsair product that left me quite satisfied, not only by its performance but also by its nice design. The updated GS series is still produced by the same OEM, Channel Well Technology, which also made the older models but it is based on a much ...
Good voltage regulation at +12V, Efficiency that reaches 86% with 50% load, although the PSU is only 80PLUS certified, Handles full power flawlessly at 50 °C ambient, Excellent ripple suppression at 3.3V and good enough at +12V and 5V, Performed great in
A little stiff price, 3.3V rail registered high voltage drops in Advanced Transient Response tests, Loose voltage regulation at 3.3V (but still <5% limit), Fairly low efficiency at loads below 70 W, Only one EPS connector
The Corsair GS800 exhibited fairly good overall performance in all tests except the Advanced Transient ones where the 3.3V rail registered high voltage drops. On the contrary during the same tests we saw excellent performance from the +12V line, which ...
Corsair’s new Gaming Series power supply is a solid contender. For the price, you get a whole lot of power supply. While efficiency isn’t up there with some more expensive units, the GS800W only claimed to be 80Plus. Still, the efficiency numbers are ...
The new Corsair GS800 is a terrific power supply for its price point, and we highly recommend it if you are looking for an 800 W with a good cost/benefit ratio.Even though it only has the standard 80 Plus certification, we saw efficiency up to 85.7%, a...
Our load tests utilize a couple of FAST ATE active load testers and a variety of other equipment such as an oscilloscope, power conditioner, temperature probe and a power consumption meter. You can read more about our standard testing approach . The...
ly, we would love to see much better components and quality at a price of 120 CHF We can recommend it as a low cost solution but would also suggest that you take a look at the Corsair CX750M, which is not that much worse but also cheaper as well as the Co...
