Manufacturer description

At 850W, it leaves headroom for a single high-draw GPU plus an enthusiast CPU without running the unit at its ceiling, which is where most PSUs get loud and inefficient. This is the CP-9020196-EU part number, the European-market SKU of the RM850, so check the included cable set against your regional outlet before ordering. Corsair's RM line is fully modular, meaning you attach only the cables your build actually uses and leave the rest in the box rather than stuffing unused leads behind the motherboard tray. If you are specifying a Corsair RM850 for a new build, the 850W class is the…

Frequently Asked Questions

Is 850W enough for an RTX-class gaming build?

850W leaves headroom for a single 300-350W graphics card plus an enthusiast CPU. For a dual-GPU or extreme-overclock setup, check your specific components' rated draw against the manufacturer's recommendation.

What does the CP-9020196-EU part number mean?

It is the European-market SKU of the Corsair RM850. The unit itself is the same 850W RM850, but the bundled AC cable is regional - confirm the plug type on the listing before ordering outside the EU.

Is the Corsair RM850 fully modular?

Yes, the RM series is fully modular, so every cable detaches at the PSU including the 24-pin. You connect only what your build uses, which cuts clutter behind the motherboard tray.

What warranty does the RM850 carry?

Warranty length is not listed in this product's specifications. Corsair sets warranty terms per series and revision, so check the current product listing or Corsair's support site before purchasing.
