Full power rated up toiThe ambient temperature up to which the maker rates full continuous power, such as 50 °C. A review table that prints 0-50 °C with no maker source is not enough. An operating temperature range that does not say full power is not enough. A maker table with load steps gives the full-load row, such as 40 °C at full load next to 50 °C at 80 percent load. A temperature that a Cybenetics report marks as manufacturer-provided counts as a maker statement.

Cables and connectors

4 of 7 differ

CablesiOne row per kind of cable that runs from the PSU to a device. Connector is the plug at the device end. Count is the number of those plugs over all cables in the row. Length runs from the PSU end to the first plug. Adapters that plug into other cables are left out. Use 16-pin PCIe when the maker names a 16-pin GPU cable without saying 12V-2x6 or 12VHPWR. A cable from a 12V-2x6 socket on the PSU to 8-pin plugs is a cable, not an adapter, and counts as PCIe 8-pin. When the maker's documents name one GPU cable both 12VHPWR and 12V-2x6, use 16-pin PCIe and name both in the source note. Cables of one connector kind with different lengths or wire gauges get one row each.

The 16-26AWG range of the 12V-2x6 cable includes the thin sideband wires, so the stored gauge is the 16AWG power wire. Hardware Busters says the PSU has one 12V-2x6 socket and the second 12V-2x6 cable ends in two 8-pin plugs, which matches the 650+100 mm PCIe cable. That cable shares the socket and cannot be used together with the native 12V-2x6 cable. Cybenetics counts the Y-type SATA cable as 2 cables, while the maker lists 1 Y-type cable, so 1 cable is stored.

The retail box table of the 850W unit (photo in the XtremeHardware review), the installation guide and an earlier copy of this page in that review give 610, 650, 750, 720 and 450 mm and two 4-SATA cables plus one 2-SATA + 2-Molex cable, on 5 CPU|PCIe and 3 SATA|Molex sockets, which matches the Phanteks product render. The box and guide values are stored and the conflict with the current page text is noted for review. The 12V-2x6 cable is 450W on the page, the box and the review, while retailers print 600W.4Owner's manualphanteks.com/manuals/AMP_GH_Installation_Guide_v1.1.pdfRead 16 October 2026Cable table for the whole GH range: motherboard 24-pin 610 mm, CPU 4+4-pin 650 mm, PCIe 6+2-pin 750 mm, 12V-2x6 720 mm, SATA 4 plugs 450 mm with 150 mm spacing, SATA and Molex 2 and 2 plugs 450 mm. It says the amount of cables may vary by model, so the counts per cable type come from the retail box table of the 850W unit.9Reviewxtremehardware.com/recensioni/14837-phanteks-amp-gh-850-recensioneRead 16 October 2026The box photo of the 850W unit prints a cable table with cable number, connectors per cable and length: 24-pin 1 cable 610 mm, CPU 2 cables 650 mm, PCIe 6+2 3 cables 750 mm, 12V-2x6 1 cable 720 mm, SATA 2 cables with 4 plugs each (450 mm then 150 mm spacing), SATA and Molex 1 cable with 2 SATA and 2 Molex plugs (450 mm then 150 mm spacing). The text names the same cables and the maker spec table copy in the review shows 5 CPU|PCIe and 3 SATA|Molex sockets. The text puts the cable length between 610 mm and 750 mm. No wire gauge is given.

HWB photos show round sleeved 24-pin and 12V-2x6 cables and flat ribbon-style cables with the same braided texture for CPU and PCIe.

The bundle photo shows round, individually sleeved wires and no flat ribbon cables. The maker calls them individually textured cables. Stored as sleeved because none of flat, embossed or mixed fits.

Protection and parts

ProtectionsiProtections the maker lists, or a retailer spec table copies from the maker, plus protections the Cybenetics protection tests show working (UVP, NLO, SIP). The Cybenetics manufacturer list has no OVP or UVP row, so do not build the list from it alone. A protection that is not listed may still exist. No-load covers no-load operation and no-load protection. Fan failure is a maker's fan failure protection or fan safeguard, also when the Cybenetics manufacturer block lists it.
