Montech Titan Gold 850W PSU Review

Box & Bundle

At the face of the box is a photo of the PSU with the modular panel in clear view, along with the uniquely designed fan grille. The three badges show the efficiency levels and the ten-year warranty.

The PSU has a nice exterior design, thanks to its fan grille and stamped lines on the sides. The modular panel has eleven sockets in total, with one of them for the PCIe 5.0 connector, featuring 12+4 pins.

Cables

Modular Cables
Description Cable Count Connector Count (Total) Gauge In Cable Capacitors
ATX connector 20+4 pin (600mm) 1 1 16-18AWG No
4+4 pin EPS12V (700mm) 1 1 16AWG No
8-pin EPS12V (700mm) 1 1 16AWG No
6+2 pin PCIe (500mm+150mm) 2 4 16-18AWG No
12+4 pin PCIe (600mm) (600W) 1 1 16-24AWG No
SATA (500mm+150mm+150mm+150mm) 3 12 18AWG No
4-pin Molex (500mm+150mm+150mm+150mm) 1 4 18AWG No
AC Power Cord (1400mm) – C13 coupler 1 1 18AWG

The cables are long, and there are no in-cable caps, which restrict flexibility, making cable management tougher. Besides the four 6+2 PCIe connectors on two cables, there is also a single 12VHPWR able to deliver up to 600W. Normally an 850W ATX v3.0 PSU should be restricted to 300W on this connector, but most brands chose to ignore Intel’s recommendations and use higher power ratings on the 12+4pin cables. Most RTX 4090 cards are restricted to 450W, and 850W PSUs can support them if the system’s processor isn’t as power-hungry, so a wise choice would be to set the 12+4 pin connector to 450W instead of 600W. Lastly, the distance between the peripheral connectors is ideal at 150mm.
