The new OCZ Z Series Z850Mis an 850W PSU that holds on to some of PC Power & Cooling’s original specs and adds some new features as well. The single 12V rail remains, this one delivering 850W or 71A maximum; what is new is the modular cabling and the 80+ Gold rating. [H]ard|OCP tested this middle weight PSU and in the end declared it to be the best PSU they have received from OCZ, but it is a pity that the 80+ Gold rating comes at such a premium price.
