It seems like you might have forgotten to mention something important. Could you clarify what you're referring to? I'm here to help with whatever you need.

He is indicating that "nada" is the case, meaning they are not accessible where he is.

You've already ordered the Be Quiet model? That's acceptable because it will fulfill its purpose, though it somewhat diminishes the need to check its suitability beforehand.

The original query is addressed as fully answered. The chosen power supply meets the requirements. My previous setup lacked the ASRock Steel Legend OC Arc B580 12 GB Video Card, but my son persuaded me to include it for better video editing performance. Adding it along with two SSDs and four WD Enterprise drives increased the wattage significantly. I was concerned about whether the 850-watt PSU would suffice. If the response had been negative, I would still be within the return period at AMZN, allowing a potential exchange.

What I intended to convey was that there were no options available in terms of wattage or brand during my research. I relied on the information provided here on Tom's to refine the search.

Noteworthy. I recently discovered the MONTECH CENTURY II - 850W at Egghead for half the price I paid for the Bequiet. $82 compared to $160. It now includes the 12V-2x6 Cable. This detail wasn't mentioned in any review.

Return Be Quiet! and consider Montech? The savings could be significant.

Aeacus, I appreciate the idea of keeping a little money saved. I checked out the Montech in some reviews. Appreciate the recommendations.

I wouldn't. Take a closer look at the review. Although it isn't listed in the "Pros/Cons" section, Aris points out that the cable is only rated for 450w, not 600w. Even without a power-hungry card, the issues with the connectors make me prefer staying with what I have. Plus, if you decide to upgrade to a higher tiered card later, it could become a real issue.

The 1050W model includes a 600W cable, as mentioned in the Aris'es review I referenced. The 850W version has a 450W cable (tested by Michael Pabia), but for those needing more power than 450W—such as running an RTX 4090 or 5090 (600W)—it isn't recommended to use it with the 850W unit.
