Antec Edge 650W Modular Power Supply Review

Over Power Protection and Max Wattage


Power supplies often quote as having various protection mechanisms such and the most important of these is Over Power Protection. In our testing we crank up the power draw until the power supply either shuts down (meaning the OPP mechanism is present and working) or blows up (meaning it is either not present or not working). We then note the maximum power consumption before the power supply shut down (or blew up).

No Seasonic power supply has blown up on my watch and the Antec Edge doesn’t change that trend. It only managed an extra 70W above its rated wattage before the OPP was triggered but we can’t complain as it delivers its rated wattage safely.
