Antec has quickly built itself an excellent range of quality PC components and an overall strong reputation within the industry and PC enthusiast community. Although perhaps not the best-known brand, it is certainly one that many have heard of and as such, if you were in the market for a new power supply, you might very well consider one of their products.
With such a large market though, it can sometimes be difficult to know what is going to be best for you.
We, therefore, take an in-depth look at the Antec HCG (high current gamer) 850w power supply. Being bronze rated, this isn’t expected to have the highest levels of efficiency, but should still give a strong performance and solid results. We’re not going to take that at face value though. To the test bench!!!
Providing the bulk of its power through a single +12V rail this is a fantastic option for those looking towards overclocking or indeed those with exceptionally demanding systems.

If you are looking for a strong, stable and reliable PSU that will last you for years, you’ll want one that runs on Continuous Power. Antec PSUs always use Continuous Power to deliver consistent, stable wattage to your entire system. You can believe that whenever Antec advertises a rated wattage, that is exactly what you’ll get: stability and continuous power. No exceptions. Features a dual 98.8% +12V high current rails with high load capabilities to ensure maximum CPU & GPU compatibility with darkened cables for minimal visibility in chassis, the HCG-850M is definitely worth every cent – Antec
