Transient Response
Transient response in power supplies refers to how quickly and effectively the PSU stabilizes its output voltage during sudden changes in load demand, such as when a CPU or GPU increases its power draw. It’s measured by the time and voltage deviation during these shifts. A faster, smaller transient response ensures stable power, preventing instability or damage to components.

The transient response is generally mediocre. High voltage drops on all rails, especially at 12V and 5V.
Transient Response ATX v3.1 Tests
For PSUs without a 12+4 pin connector, the maximum applied load for the transient response tests is 150%, rather than 200%.
The PSU passes all ATX v3.1 transient response tests.
The 12V rail’s performance is below average in these tests.
Hi
I found one Iranian PSU “GP800A-UK EVO V3.1” https://green.ir/products/power-supply/gp800a-uk-evo-v3.1 and it’s powered by High power No-832H , similar to Chieftec VEGA’s board but it’s High power No-832D.
Is there any PSU that uses No-832H ? Is it higher tier?
