How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsSo Far So Good - Purchased During Black Friday 2019
Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2020
*Update 09/30/2021*
Still working like a dream. Haven't had a single issue since day one and I game and video edit heavily so it's running for most of the day every day.

If you're like me, you've seen this thing floating around on lists in places like LinusTechTips forums etc, and it's rankd pretty darn low compared to a lot of other PSUs. It's enough to make you second guess ever buying one of these things. Well it went on sale during black friday and for the price, an 850W 80+ Gold fully modular PSU? I couldn't ignore it. I closed my eyes tightly and clicked "ship". Been using this thing ever since. I never use eco mode. Seems unnecessary since the PSU isn't noisy to begin with and I'd rather just know it's always keeping itself as cool as possible. It came packaged like a champ, lots of extra cables and straps included. Cables are all black so that's nice. My only gripe is that the cables are a little stiff. They're built tough as hell for sure, but they could have been more flexible. I've had to route cables in ways I would have preferred not to for the sake of tidiness but the cables just couldn't bend enough to do what I originally planned. Still, god quality cables nonetheless. Love the green design of the fan cover and the green LED when it's on. If I ever run into issues I'll come back here and give it a proper thrashing but as of now, It's been handling my rig well with no issues.

1.0 out of 5 starsWarranty ONLY If They Can Sell Your Info
Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2019
So, to get the warranty, you have to go online and register the product. However, to get to the registration page you have to not only make an account but also must " accept the processing of my personal data as set out in EVGA's Privacy Policy."

That is HARD BS and I will not be buying any more PSU's from EVGA. You give a warranty when a customer buys a product, you don't shoehorn in stuff like this. Completely ridiculous. Will be returning without a doubt.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great psu! Eco mode is terrible.
Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2022
Size: 850WStyle: G5Pattern Name: Power SupplyVerified Purchase
As always EVGA makes another great PC component. The fan is very quiet while running at 80% capacity. Has plenty of power to run my 3080. The only reason I'm leaving 4 stars instead of 5 is because the eco mode on this is horrible. DO NOT use the eco mode while using this power supply. It will overheat and cause your pc to shut down. The fan does not pick up speed when under a heavier load like it should. After it cools down for awhile turn the eco mode switch off and reboot your PC. The fan will then turn on full power and be super loud. After a few minutes once completely cooled down the fan slowed down and stop blowing hot air out. Aside from this issue with their eco mode this has been a great psu!

4.0 out of 5 stars had to remove shrink tubing and zip tie from the 24 pin to fit my case
Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2022
Size: 650WStyle: G5Pattern Name: Power SupplyVerified Purchase
As a power supply this is solid and reliable. This would get a 5 star rating across the board from me if not for issues with cable management. The 24 pin wire was too stiff with the shrink tubing and zip tie in a crucial area needing to bend. I had a few choices. 1 run the cable to the top of the case and be exposed from the top to the middle of the case ( Not a clean look ). 2 remove a drive mount panel along with the case logo but again more cable would be exposed then I would like. 3 purchase mod cable kit someday maybe 4. Option I chose - remove shrink tube and zip tie. flatten cable for a short area bend. Am I disappointed in my choice of power supply or the mod I chose not at all I'm very happy. Someday I might go with a cable mod kit to bling it up some

4.0 out of 5 stars Emotional computer power supply, EVGA Supernova 750 G3 Gold power
Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2018
Size: 750WStyle: G3Pattern Name: Power SupplyVerified Purchase
There was a time when we used to say that 300W power is huge when assembling a computer. It became a story of a tiger cigarette, and now, a large amount of computer power supplies are being released in excess of 1000W.

Power supplies are evolving as more and more power-hungry components like graphics cards are used, and if you're using a GeForce GTX1080 or higher graphics card, you're likely to recommend over 550 watts of power.

Now, however, power can not be simply evaluated in watts. The number of watts listed in the power supply simply means maximum power, and in fact, you need to consider a number of factors including how steady and steady power is supplied, internal cooling performance, and noise.

Fortunately, there are 80Plus standards to help consumers make their choice. The 80Plus is a type of certification that affixes power supplies that are more than 80% efficient.

80Plus is again divided into Standard, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Titanium grades. The higher the rating, the higher the efficiency. 80Plus grades will be introduced in detail in other postings.

The high efficiency power means that less power is wasted, and the durability and reliability of parts are high. That's why even the same power is more expensive if the 80Plus rating is higher.

However, if you are a general computer user, you do not need to purchase a product that has an extremely high output and a high 80Plus rating. Once you have a standard or Bronze rating, you can use it.

However, if you are overclocking or using high performance graphics cards in parallel (SLI), it is a good idea to purchase a product with high output and a high 80Plus rating. It is especially important to purchase a proven branded power supply.

My PC is actually 750W, which is not a system that requires 80Plus Gold grade power. EVGA, a hardware manufacturer in the United States, makes it easier to select a power supply because the web site allows you to see how much power you need for your system.

I have enough 500W of Bronze power. -_- ;;;

But I sang the EVGA Supernova 750 G3 Gold power supply. It's cheap on Amazon! And thanks for asking. The total purchase price was around $ 129,

If you want to buy a 750W gold grade power supply in Korea, you have to pay more than 200,000 won. Thanks to the weight of the product, shipping costs are expensive.

The packaging of the product consists of the following.

There is a huge 130mm fan located at the bottom. When it actually works, the noise is quite small.

In fact, EVGA does not manufacture power supplies directly. It is said that the famous power supply manufacturer's products are supplied as OEM type, and it is said that they are supplied with products such as super flower and sisonic. The 750 G3 Gold I bought is known as the Superflight product OEM, the famous power supply manufacturer in Taiwan.

The power cable connector is fully modular, making it very easy to line up.

On the rear, there is a power switch and an eco mode switch. When Eco mode is turned on, the fan automatically operates according to the temperature. Normally it is stopped and the noise is reduced.

Power cable is fully prepared. I like how much it is treated with sleeving. Of course, buying a full sleeving cable will make it easier to clean up, but that seems to be enough.

The EVGA mark is also printed on the cable, so you can feel the emotion (!).

This is a comparison with the existing SuperFlow Ridex Gold 750W power. It is a little smaller in size. Among the power supplies with 750W output, EVGA G3 belongs to the smallest axis.
 
For reference, the Superflow Ridex Gold Power comes with LEDs on the connector. It's pretty pretty, but it does not seem to be very useful in cases with power supply covers like my PC.

It is a power cable that connects to the main board, but it does not have a capacitor in the connector as it is known. Check out the cable picture with the capacitor through Google search.

I am glad I was afraid there might be a capacitor in this way.

My PC case had a power cover, so I could not shoot it. There was no great difficulty in installing it, and it seemed to work well because I can not hear fan noise or high frequency sound. I am not worried about EVGA because I can easily A / S with RMA.

Perhaps EVGA products will be re-launched by EMT and supply power supply. Let's take a look at how much we can compete with FSP, Sysonic and Superflow, which are power supply companies.

I do not have any experience building PC's. Was just upgrading my computer, only problem was it was slightly too big for my pre-built pc case so had to remove a part that hides the wires. Which these wires are extremely long, was very hard for a newbie like me to make them stay out of the way of fans. Not really used to doing that, but all the wires feel sturdy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good modular unit
Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2022
Size: 650WStyle: GTPattern Name: Power SupplyVerified Purchase
All parts and a test part included. Came up great. Install was ok. I like the modular units and will probably only order these type in the future. I would have liked the sata cables to be longer, have an extension, or to include an extra. This is in a mid tower and it was hard to connect all the sata units. Had some trouble with the sata power to the pcie graphics on the mobo. Other than that it works great and is quiet.

4.0 out of 5 stars Delivers Plenty of Power for a 3090FE & i7 9700K. Coil Whine is _AWFUL_
Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2022
Size: 850WStyle: G5Pattern Name: Power SupplyVerified Purchase
Does exactly what it needs to do. After a month, it's developed horrible coil whine when the GPU is put under moderate or higher stress. I am absolutely certain it's not the GPU making the noise. I did not notice it until I put in an AIO for the CPU to replace a 10+ year old fan.

Bought a 3080TI, needed to upgrade my power supply so I went from a 650 bronze to this 850W gold and it’s definitely the best bang for you buck, handles my 3080TI with no issues. The only issue I had was the delayed shipping, the shipment got delayed 3 times & when it did arrive the box was beat to hell but everything in it was in great shape, shout-out to EVGA.

4.0 out of 5 stars Damn near perfect
Reviewed in the United States on July 22, 2022
Size: 1000WStyle: GTPattern Name: Power SupplyVerified Purchase
The only gripe I have with this power supply is that it only comes with 2 straight through gpu cables. The other cables have the daisy chain connectors and for higher end graphic cards, you need 3 cables. I used one of the split end cables at 1st then wound up buying 3rd party power cords because having a spare connector just dangling there was a major eyesore!

Overall performance I can't really say much, have not used it in a build. But it looks kinda cool so it has visual value. Seems kinda heavy and bulky though, don't know if it's been a while or if it was because I was trying to build a small compact system and it didn't fit the form factor. Good at effort though
