We spent MONTHS evaluating Gigabyte's GP-P750GM & GP-P850GM power supplies to determine why so many users reported DOAs, failures, and "exploding" MOSFETs.

WATCH PART 3: Speedrun of exploding Gigabyte PSU - [ Ссылка ]
We have been working on this on and off since February, and have spent thousands on employee time, test equipment, and power supplies to do the testing. Please consider grabbing one of the items above to support us, or check out our Patreon Behind-the-Scenes videos about this testing here: [ Ссылка ]
Gigabyte’s GP-P750GM and 850GM power supplies were and are in combo “deals” on Newegg Shuffle. If you wanted the graphics card but not the PSU, you'd have trouble to return one without the other. You’re essentially stuck with a product that you don’t want. Many of the Gigabyte PSUs were reported DOA, and in testing, we found many were explosive. We quantify the Newegg reviews, our own survey, and load test the PSUs. We also show which MOSFETs demonstrated failure and explain more about how power supply protections may have prevented it. Gigabyte and Newegg are ultimately dumping an unsellable product on desperate buyers.
