Seems pretty good psu accoring to the jonnyguru reviews you posted. The only thing bad is that they are high for the average user, sad they didnt do 450/550/650 versions.

Yes, nothing with a lower wattage, but luckily efficiency at low loads doesn't seem awful.
The fan speed however looks like almost unmatchable by current Seasonics.

I really like what im reading, sadly i already got my two seasonic SS860XP2, so i wont give a try for some time.

Im wondering what will Corsair do for their top end line, as theses new HX will directly compete with the AX series.... maybe 80 Plus Titanium =)

What are you waiting to get one, Luca? :)
I installed my 850HXi today and I believe it stayed fanless all the time so far. It will spin only during hot summer days :D
I tested the fan with the checker button and it is really quiet btw.

Next AXi will be Titanium I guess. Scaled-down version of the amazing 1500AXi.
