Over Power Protection and Max Wattage
While officially rated to 850 watts, it’s never unusual for a power supply to be capable of providing a wattage beyond that amount. When things are pushed too far, however, it’s important to know that the safety protections are in place to prevent any potential damage not only to your power supply but also to your other system components.
Achieving a maximum wattage output of 1,108.6, this is around 25% over the officially rated amount. While it is, of course, never advised to purchase a power supply below the consumption needs of your hardware, this is still an impressive figure that was achieved before the OPP successfully kicked into place to shut the PSU, quickly and safely, down!
