The 3.3V rail drops lower than the allowed in the 50% transient load test. With higher nominal voltage, this wouldn’t happen.
Transient Response ATX v3.0 Tests
The PSU passed all ATX v3.0 transient response tests with success.

Thankyou for your response.
I think I will go with Deepcool PX850G as it seems a good unit according to your review/testing (the 850W Montech Titan is £50 more expensive currently here in the UK).
Thanks for your hard work, love what you do.
Kind regards
anytime!
Hi Aris
Should the fact that this PSU failed one of your tests (transient response – 50% load, 3.3V) be of concern? And what does this mean in regards to everyday use for the average user.
Kind regards
The 3.3V rail is only lightly used by today’s PSUs, so it most likely won’t be a serious issue. But in any case, it would be better if it passed this test with success.
Hey Aris.
What do you think about Antec Signature line up?
I’m considering 1000w titanium or 1300w platinum unit. The price is decent here in Croatia. I saw your review of titanium unit back in 2020 and your opinion was positive!
Thanks for this review Aris!
Really strong showing, solid performance, here , from Montech. I didn’t expect that from an “outsider” .
With this, they are becoming a competitive option.
I PARTICULARLY liked the 150mm distance between the sata power connectors, FINALLY someone is listening and getting this thing right!
It sets is apart from the competition in my book.
Short distance between the sata can be frustrating even in midi cases.
That said, needs a little improvement here and there, but there’s nothing outright wrong with it.
Indeed someone listened finally, and put 150mm distance between peripheral connectors 🙂
I am choosing between Montech Titan Gold and Corsair RMx Shift, which one would you recommend?
It depends, if you need the side panel of the Shift. If not, you could save some money with the Montech unit since its normal price is around 170 dollars.
