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).
Wow, it’s unlikely that you’ll ever need to draw this much from this unit, especially since it’s really only designed to hook up to a smaller system and a single GPU, but should you hit a big power spike, OPP kicks in at almost 950w! I wouldn’t suggest running it past the rating for long though, as that tiny fan can only help so much.
