DeepCool Gamer Storm DQ850-M Power Supply Review

Over Power Protection and Max Wattage
With the Gamer Storm DQ850-M having 850 watts of power, this should be more than sufficient for the vast majority of gaming systems. Despite that though, it is important to know that the overpower protections do work and while were at it, seeing just how much further it can be pushed before these come into place.
During our testing, we found that the power supply was capable of outputting an addition 291 watts before the protections came into effect. Given that this is over 20% above the rated amount, that’s quite impressive. If you did, therefore, ever have to push this power supply a little harder than it’s rated amount, you wouldn’t find it wanting!
