Although officially rated to 750 watts of power output, it’s never unusual that a PSU is capable of going beyond those remits. This is, of course, never advisable for consumers and you should always purchase a power supply suitable for your components (and with an additional bit of wiggle room just for comfort). – If things are pushed too hard, however, it’s important to know that protections are in place to remove the risk of any potential damage to your system or its components.
So, with this in mind, how did the Lian Li SP850 fare? Well, in something seemingly representing what is a growing theme of this review, impressively well! – We can confirm that the OPP worked entirely as expected, but what was particularly impressive was that this small SFX PSU was capable of offering circa 49% over its rated amount.
As noted above, you shouldn’t, of course, ever be in a position where you rely upon exceeding the rated amount. With that being said though, this isn’t just a solid bit of wiggle room. It’s massive!
