Small form factors and high wattage are generally mutually exclusive, unless you have impaired hearing and no tinnitus.
'The use of a low-profile 92 mm fan inside such a compact unit with significant thermal losses did have the expected side effect of high audible sound pressure levels.
Once the fan starts, it quickly becomes clearly audible, with the noise staying within relatively comfortable boundaries up to about 500 Watts.'
So, maybe these companies should start calling these units 500W models rather than 850.
The only reason to get an 850W for SFX PSUs, is so that the PC won't crash when an RTX 3080Ti, or something as power hungry, causes a massive transient spike. You could probably get away with a 750W ATX PSU, but SFX PSUs are known for not handling transient spikes as well as ATX.
I feel distinctly about it and love adapting also concerning this issue. In the event that conceivable, as you get authority, would you mind restoring your blog with additional data? It is unbelievably huge for me.
