Model overview based on user reviews  
The Chieftec PowerUp series, particularly the GPX-850FC and GPX-750FC models, offers a compelling choice for those seeking a PSU with an 80+ Gold certification at a reasonable price. Users appreciate the modularity and reputation of the brand, which provides flexibility in cable management. However, there are notable concerns regarding the stiffness and inconvenience of the cables, especially the 24-pin cable, which some users found difficult to insert into the PSU and motherboard. Despite these challenges, the PSU performs quietly under load, even with demanding setups. While the product is generally well-received, potential buyers should be aware of the cable issues and consider replacing them if necessary. Overall, the Chieftec PowerUp series is a solid choice for those prioritizing efficiency and brand reliability, though some may find the price point less appealing unless the GOLD certification is a priority.
Pros

Cons

It seems like a good option, but the cables were very strained and had to be changed

When purchasing, I advise you to immediately change the cable, you will not like it
Price for 80+ Gold
Cables, they are very inconvenient here, stiff. Especially the 24pin cable - long, thick, unbendable, black...

very disappointed

famous company, modularity
wires and connectors I pricked all my hands while inserting the 24-pin into the PSU and spent a lot of strength The 24-pin does not go into the motherboard until it clicks, and I don’t want to break it I’ll have to do something about this, because the board may burn out

for 5k it would be top for its money, for 6 not so much... Only if the GOLD label is important to you.

I have no idea what to write in the review for the PSU, since essentially it should be written when
1 - There is a power surge and some device gets fried, and it's operating at that moment
2 - Connect a farm closely to 550 and check if the contacts will melt
3 - Lightning strikes)
1060 6GB + 12600K and a bunch of peripherals = no noise
The wires are packed in a bag. Detailed instructions, no complaints about the package, even 2 cables turned out to be unnecessary.
