Cooler Master GX III 850W ATX V3.0 PSU Review

The top of the Cooler Master GX III 850W is home to a massive fan grille which seems quite a close cut design. Hopefully it won't restrict air flow too much when we get to testing.

The unit is quite nicely finished with a little purple ‘flash' along the top, to match the box artwork. It is however quite prone to highlighting finger prints and marks.

One side of the PSU is home to a power switch and connector with a vented panel to aid with airflow. We can vaguely see a purple heatsink inside, although we will get a closer look at this soon when we open it up.

The other side of the unit is home to the modular bay, which is labelled across two banks for ease of use during the install phase of the system build.

One side of the power supply highlights the power delivery.

The unit can deliver 20A on both the +3.3V and +5V rails. and 70.8A via the +12V output.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
