Funky Kit Review - ADATA XPG PYMCORE 850W SFX PSU

Funky Kit describes the ADATA XPG Pymcore 850W SFX as a compact but genuinely high-end SFX power supply aimed at small yet powerful gaming PCs. In testing it delivers the performance and efficiency that the marketing promises, running very efficiently, staying surprisingly quiet for its size, and handling modern high-power GPUs and CPUs without drama. It is ATX 3.1 compliant, uses a high-duty capacitor array of Japanese capacitors, and supports massive short-term power excursions up to about 235 percent of its rated output, which puts it in the same class as many new 1 kW ATX 3.1 units despite the tiny SFX footprint.

" ...  The XPG PYMCORE 850W power supply is highly recommended if you have plans for a small yet powerful gaming PC. The PSU performs well, is quiet, has high wattage, and is designed to protect our PC in the best possible way. The XPG PYMCORE is definitely an answer if you're looking for a high-power SFX PSU for your daily challenges!  "

The review notes that availability is still limited and there was no firm MSRP at review time, but ADATA PSUs of this class typically land in the roughly 120 to 160 US dollar range, which would make the Pymcore 850W a strong value if that holds true. Officially it carries a 7-year warranty, with some indications it may be sold in certain regions with up to a 10-year warranty, reinforcing the impression of good build quality and long-term reliability. Overall scoring is 8.4 out of 10, and Funky Kit gives it an Editor’s Choice award, recommending it strongly for anyone planning a compact gaming build who needs high wattage, low noise and proper support for next-gen GPUs via a full 600 W 12V-2x6 connector, while accepting that the exterior styling is quite plain and that buyers may have to wait for stock to appear.
