Packaging and Accessories


As always, Seasonic's packaging is very informative, with efficiency graphs and the list of main features on the back and the list of power specifications as well as cabling details on the side of the box.


Inside the box, besides the securely packaged PSU, we find an AC power cord, mounting screws, a user manual, an installation guide, some zip ties, Seasonic-branded Velcro strips and a 24-pin "test" cover to start the PSU without installing it in a system.


Inside a separate bag we find the modular cables that come with the PSU. All of them have individually sleeved wire strands and a nice textured finish. No "combs" provided to help manage them in a flat configuration, though.

Cables

Modular Cables

MB (24/20 pins)1610 mm1
CPU (8/4 pins)1700 mm2
PCIe (8/6 pins)1750 mm3

SATA 3.3 V2550 mm1
Molex3690 mm1
12VHPWR1 (12+4 Pins to 12+4 Pins)750 mm1

Connectivity-wise, the FOCUS GX ATX 3.0 850 W looks very much in line for its power delivery. With one 12VHPWR cable and three PCIe 6+2 cables the PSU has enough connectivity for the single GPU setups that you would consider powering with a 850 W PSU.

The cables included with the PSU are Seasonic's standard ones we've seen with the Prime TX-1600 ATX 3.0, meaning the lengths and spacing between connectors are also the same, so the cables of the FOCUS GX ATX 3.0 will work well in larger cases. The SATA ports on the peripheral cables are spaced 15 cm apart while the Molex cable connectors are spaced 12 cm apart.

None of the cables feature any inline capacitors for ripple/noise suppression.
