A "Bear" of a Power Supply

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 7, 2022

This unit is big - no it's really big, we barely got it into the case and then due to baffles in that case there was no room for wire geography. It is 1600 watts so the size may be understandable. One thing that is VERY important with this (and other +1500 watt) units is the cables supplied. This comes with, I believe, 16 gauge cables. The majority of power supplies use 18 gauge cables (in case your not aware the lower number is a thicker cable - normal house wiring is 12 gauge). so don't substitute a cable you have lying around. Also you cannot use any of the extension cables listed as they are all 18 gauge. We normally build with custom made cables, made to size, so 16 gauge is not an issue. If you power your motherboard, using this power supply, and happen to use an 18 gauge cable it will be a problem. At best the cable will melt, at worst your motherboard will be damaged.

Anyway, this is a good 1600 watt power supply, but when all is said and done we prefer the Be Quite 1500 watt which at this time is a more sophisticated unit, and BTW smaller. But that unit has unique cables also because it uses proprietary plugs & cables.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 27, 2017

Product lasted 10 months. Loud popping sound followed by a burnt electrical smell. To It's credit it tried to restart my pc but I quickly shut it down. Also to its credit my system wasn't hurt and seems to work/game fully on my old power supply. I will update this after I RMA.

Edit 2 > They (Denied) me my warranty because of an installation paint scuff(pictured). I've been a loyal customer for over 10 years. I regret buying my 1080ti from them. I'll find a brand that is loyal to it's customers. Very disappointed here.

Edit 3 > I rated this to 3 again. I've had PSU's destroy everything when they go bad and yours didn't. That's worth points.
After the bad reviews and pictures the same day EVGA contacted me with a refund. It shouldnt need to go this far but it is what it is. Love EVGA graphics cards. I'll return for more of those.

Bad experience with the PSU. EVGA should probably consider stronger consumer confidence tactics in regards to these. Just me two cents.

Solid 8 years of service before failure, great PSU!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 14, 2022

Size: 1000 WattStyle: SupernovaVerified Purchase

Installed in my PC way back in 2014, and it has been reliable until very recently. Good noise level, and nice quality cables too.

If your PC starts having problems where it shuts off near full load, it would be worth investigating this PSU as that seems to be my problem. It seems like it can’t ride out the sudden power demand changes near full load.

I had such a good experience with this PSU that I bought another as it’s replacement.

Solid and Quiet

Runs my I9 with 3800rtx and 5 HD’s without any issues and is super quiet. Would definitely recommend as it lowered my electric bill over my TT 750 80+ white.

I have had this PSU on several Motherboards, never had a single problem with it at all. Really nice braided cables for all the outputs as well. Bought on May 22, 2019. Highly recommend this PSU to anyone!

Very quiet + efficient, well built

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 13, 2022

Size: 1000 WattStyle: SupernovaVerified Purchase

One of the most efficient power supplies you can find on the market. It’s very quiet and well built. You can feel the quality from its weight.

Three downsides:
1. The positions of the sockets on the PSU seem a bit outdated. It’s not the best layout for modern cases where most cables route behind the back.
2. The EPS CPU cable is really difficult to plug in.
3. The cables are easily scratched.

USE THE CABLE ONLY OF EVGA PSU

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 22, 2022

Size: 1600 WattStyle: SupernovaVerified Purchase

FOR ME IS ONE OF THE BEST PSU.

This EVGA Supernova 850 T2, 80+ Titanium 850W, Fully Modular is the best supply in its class!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 19, 2020

Size: 850 WattStyle: SupernovaVerified Purchase

Dunno why, but in the last month I had two brand new supplies fail in a row. Both $150 range Corsair and EVGA 850s that showed up already defective or failed within minutes. The Corsair took an entire new build out with it. The EVGA showed up with a funky 12v rail right out of the box. Doesn't say much about quality control anymore does it? These days the manufacturer name doesn't mean as much, it is the actual model that sets them apart, or not. And there is no way to build right cheaper!
Every review out there puts this EVGA Supernova 850 T2, 80+ Titanium 850W, Fully Modular at the top of the game. Yeah, its a hundred papers more than most. I learned the hard way that extra cash can be lost in a heartbeat by convincing yourself that good is good enough when looking at reviews and weighing it against the risk. My motto is to give yourself some head room on any build by sizing things over your needs for a ton of reasons. The core being the power supply and most if not all computer builders will tell you to add in a good 100W over your power needs to build a safety margin. Lots of posts out there describing the tech why's. Then do your homework! Start reading reviews.
Pretty much like the foundation in your house if it has any fault the entire house is worthless. What sane builder would build a home on a foundation others have had fail? I get trying to save a few bucks, we all do. BUT. Those few extra coins you may save buying a decent supposedly good enough supply 'may' pay off, but what if it doesn't? Nothing like a great smoke show on a new $3K computer to sober a guy up! Don't be me. Trust me, I will never do it that way ever again.
Do this!
Buy this truly great power supply, and do it right. Don't just read the reviews and justify your purchase with risk. Every other supply model out there has had failures! Bar none! This model however is as bullet proof as they can come. Then you have ease of mind tossing your gnarly hard earned power hungry money pit on top of it.

A highly satisfied customer

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 19, 2017

Size: 850 WattStyle: SupernovaVerified Purchase

It is a great product at a good price. With the Titanium rating you know that you are getting a high efficiency power supply and with the name (EVGA) you can be confident in the quality. Some of the nice features of the power supply are:

1. Jacketed Cables - For those of you doing open case builds or using windowed cases, the jacketed cables add a nice clean touch.
2. 2nd CPU Jack - I've personally never used this feature, but for those of you with the funds, the CPU's and the proper motherboard this could be a nice feature.
3. Cable Ties - Again for open builds or for good airflow the provided EVGA Velcro cable ties allow you to add a nice clean finishing touch by bundling or tying down your cables without resorting to zip ties or twistys.
4. Heavy Duty Protection - I've actually had a short in my electrical system (bad wall outlet which also caused a small fire) where I fried one of these power supplies. After dealing with the outlet, all I had to do was replace the power supply and everything down line (the CPU, the Motherboard, the memory, hard drive, etc.) worked perfectly. Honestly, that being said, I don't know what stronger endorsement I can give this product. It saved my computer and me thousands of dollars.
5. Eco Mode - Generally users and gamers in particular like the quietest rig possible. After all who doesn't like to hear themselves think or to listen to the sound track of their video game. This particular power supply has an Eco mode, which means when it is only under a light load the fan doesn't run (which means no sound) and from personal experience when the fan does run it is very quite.

Negatives - There are always a couple:

1. Add2PSU - For those of you who want to daisy chain several of these together to power one computer (which is probably not the typical user) EVGA products apparently don't work with an Add2PSU Add2PSU Multiple Power Supply Adapter , which is a popular way to do this. This is from my own experience (with 3 separate Add2PSU's) and from reading similar user reviews. That doesn't mean that there are not other ways to do this, but an Add2PSU likely won't work.
2. Finish - This one is pretty subjective, but if you are doing a windowed case or open build you might be going for a certain look. The rougher texturing on this power supply and the more rounded edges may or may not work with the particular look that you are going for. This one is more picky for sure, but could be an issue.
3. Cost - Titanium power supplies will always be more expensive due to the higher end components used to obtain the higher efficiency rating. For someone on a budget their money may be better spend elsewhere. Unless you are pulling a lot of power continuously, the payback period on a higher efficiency power supply is usually pretty long.

I've bought several of these, and I might buy several more in the near future :-)
