The EVGA SuperNOVA G5 joins the elite ranks of the EVGA 80 PLUS Gold power supplies. As the successor to the award-winning G3 series, the G5 power supplies continue to push the envelope with the latest certifications and Intel power-on standards. Starting with 80 PLUS Gold certification, fully-modular cable design, 100% Japanese capacitors, and an ultra-quiet 135 mm Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) fan with EVGA ECO mode, these power supplies are built for performance and silence.Features
Gold rated efficiency
Gold rated efficiency
- 80 Plus certification ensures your power supply isn't wasting power and turning it into excess heat. Under typical load, this power supply is 91% efficient or higher.
- The G5 power supplies also feature an active clamp circuit design, DC-to-DC converter, and active PFC to provide tight voltage regulation and low ripple and noise.
- • Use only the cables you need, reducing cable clutter and improving case airflow
- Get the most reliability and greatest performance with the use of the highest possible quality Japanese Capacitors..
- 100% Aluminium Solid State Capacitors on the Modular Board
- Solid State Capacitors improve efficiency and reduce the impact of environmental factors after power is converted to DC, but before it leaves the power supply.
- The G5 features a larger fan than the G3 to reduce noise without increasing the size of the power supply.
- This PSU will cover your circuits with complete protection: OCP, OVP, UVP, OTP, OPP, and SCP.
- World leading EVGA warranty and support for 10 years.

Do you know where my EVGA 850w T2 comes from? Super Flower I am guessing?
To demonstrate even further, the ion+ 660 watts is priced at only 109$ vs the evga 650 G5 129$ and uses modern LLC resonant converter design, equipped with 780uf hold up capacitors in contrast to the 650 G5's mere 330uf, and is platinum efficiency rated ! a fantastic PSU for a bargain price
If you anyone looking for a PSU check it out !
But it isn't about the capacity of the hold-up capacitor, it's about the hold-up time itself.
Focus series also don't work with Asus Strix GTX 970, it's a really unstable combination. Seasonic has a special cable available with a big capacitor for this combination to radical reduce the ripple.
Other problem is that the ripple on the 12V can be higher than double the numbers that are allowed by the ATX specification before the PSU shuts off.
I feel like you already know that but just saying that just to hear what he has to say :laugh:, after all you wouldn't pay premium for such a PSU without reading a review or two :oops:
also from my math it saves around 8 bucks a year. so after 5-6 years it will have paid for itself anyway /shrug and I intend to this to be a PSU to last a long long time.
But also simple upgrades like a better fan or multiple OCP's on the 12V are something I would expect for by a PSU this expensive. It's something that is also possible in much cheaper power supplies, so it shouldn't be an issue for a PSU that costs a lot more.
