Supplied by: Antec
Reviewed by: Kevin Elliott
Price: $169.99

Looking in to the carton we get our first look at the Antec 850 True Power Quattro, the power supply itself is actually sandwiched in between two pieces of Styrofoam so we had to lift the top-half off to expose the power supply for the camera.  The power supply has four sets of cable permanently attached to it while the remainder of them are stowed in a plastic bag at the top of the carton.  If you look closely you can see the power cord stashed carefully along the right-side of the carton.

The dual yellow stripes and oval shaped 850 remind me of the type of painting found on old Sprint cars.  Looking at the rear of the power supply and we are presented with the standard male plug-in,  a rocker type On/Off switch and finally the 80mm exhaust fan with the flat black painted wire fan grill which is handy for keeping your fingers out of the fan when you decide it's time to move the case. 

At the front of the Antec 850 True Power Quattro you ca  see that numerous holes have been stamped into the metal which will allow air to be drawn from inside the case and expelled out the rear of the case via the 80mm low noise fan.

Looking at the plugs on the front the power supply you can see that there are three black and 2 that are red.  The two red one are specifically for the PCI-e connections on the power supply, while the three black ones are for the Molex and SATA connectors.
