ANTEC 850W 80 PLUS Gold ATX 3.1 & PCIe 5.1 12V-2x6 / 12VHPWR (16-pin) Fully Modular

Antec GSK850 ATX3.1 850W 80 PLUS Gold · PCIe 5.1 · Fully Modular

The GSK850 is Antec's compact 850W, 80 PLUS Gold unit, formally certified for ATX 3.1 and shipping a PCIe 5.1 16-pin (12+4) GPU cable for current graphics cards. Inside, Antec's PhaseWave design pairs a server-class LLC stage with synchronous rectification and DC-DC conversion, backed by Japanese capacitors. Every cable is fully modular, the 120 mm FDB fan stops entirely at low load, the CircuitShield suite covers eight protections, and the whole unit is just 140 mm deep with a 7-year warranty.

Compact & Tidy Builds

At 140 × 150 × 86 mm it is shorter than many 850W units, so it suits a wider range of cases, and full modularity means you install only the cables the build needs.

Hex-Mesh Grille over a 120 mm FDB Fan

The top view shows the hexagonal mesh that feeds Antec's 120 mm fluid-dynamic-bearing fan, with the GSK GOLD 850W badge on the side. Zero RPM Manager keeps the fan stopped until its thermal sensors call for cooling.

Antec GSK850 fully modular connector bay with PCI-E, PCI-E/CPU, SATA/Molex and 18P plus 10P motherboard sockets

Fully Modular Connector Bay

Every socket is labelled: the 16-pin PCI-E port for the 12V-2x6 GPU cable, four shared PCI-E/CPU sockets, four SATA/Molex sockets, and the motherboard cable split into 18P + 10P connectors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Technical FAQs & Store Policies

Does the GSK850 have a native cable for new graphics cards?
Yes. It includes one 16-pin (12+4) PCIe 5.1 12VHPWR / 12V-2x6 GPU cable, plus four 6+2-pin PCI-E connectors for cards that use the older plugs.
Is it fully modular?
Yes. Every cable, including the 24-pin motherboard cable, is detachable, so only the cables your build needs go into the case.
Will it fit a small case?
It is 140 mm deep (140 × 150 × 86 mm), shorter than many 850W units, so it fits a wider range of ATX cases. Always check your case's PSU clearance.
What is the HYBRID MODE switch on the back?
It controls the fan's zero-RPM behaviour. With Zero RPM mode active, the fan stays off at low load and starts only when the thermal sensors call for cooling.
What protections and warranty does it have?
Antec's CircuitShield suite (OCP, OVP, UVP, SCP, OPP, OTP, SIP and NLO) and a 7-year Antec warranty.
Is this power supply 100% genuine and backed by official warranty at AHW Store?
Yes! Every power supply sold at AHW Store is 100% authentic, factory-sealed, and backed by authorized local distributor warranty in Egypt with direct technical support and replacement. Details in our Warranty Policy ↗.
What payment and installment plans are available in Egypt?
We offer cash on delivery across Egypt, credit cards, and flexible 0% interest installment plans through ValU, Sympl, Forsa, and bank credit cards. See our Payment & Installments Guide ↗.
How fast is shipping and delivery across Egypt?
Orders are delivered within 2 to 7 business days across all Egyptian governorates in reinforced protective armored packaging (with pickup available from our 6th of October headquarters). See Shipping Policy ↗.
Can AHW Store install and stress-test this PSU in my complete custom PC build?
Yes! Our certified hardware engineers can assemble, wire with precision cable combs, stress-test under maximum electrical load, and calibrate custom thermal profiles. Explore our Custom PC Builder ↗.
What is the return and replacement policy at AHW Store?
