well, when you do your review point out what has changed over the old like from here ?
https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Antec/HCG-850M/4.html

looks like a improved fan would be a good thing .

most times when its the ''NEW '' revision that = the cheaper better product so to say at added cost to you

look forward to its review here to see inside like maybe they went from seasonic to say CWT platform ?

also seem now 7 -10 year is becoming the standard warrantee time . if I get 5 + out of one issue free I'm good

Can't see them being very attractive with that pricing, can get gold rated SeaSonic Focus+ with same watts and prices. What is the OEM though? Gold HCG:s are obviously Seasonic Focus+ platform are these some Seasonics too? From the back grille it does not look like any familiar Seasonic platform to me.

Antec creates very solid PSU's. I've never switched to any other brand since Q-tec again.
