The Silverstone 850R Platinum is a colour neutral design – ideal if you are using a themed system build without a PSU shroud to hide it.
Behind the quirky shroud is a 135mm fluid dynamic bearing (FDB) fan, we will take a closer look at this later in the review when we open the unit.
One side of the power supply is vented with a power switch and cable connector. There is also a ‘semi fanless switch' which allows the fan to remain off, until a specific load/temperature is reached. This is ideal for keeping noise levels lower when the power demand is less.
The 850R can deliver almost 71A on the +12V rail and 22A to both +3.3V and +5V rails.
