Product overview

Released July 21, 2023, the MSI MAG A850GL PCIE5 is part of MSI’s MAG A‑GL PCIe 5 power‑supply family, updated for ATX 3.1/PCIe 5.1 readiness with a native 16‑pin GPU output. It targets the high_end tier: an 850 W, fully modular, 80 PLUS Gold ATX unit that exists to power single‑GPU enthusiast PCs without stepping up to 1 kW.

It’s well‑suited to mid‑tower ATX builds needing a native 12VHPWR lead, tidy cabling, and some headroom for CPU/GPU spikes; the 140 mm depth helps in tighter cases, and MSI backs it with a 10‑year warranty. Unique note: ATX 3.1 support with a native 12VHPWR (PCIe 5.1) cable. Not discontinued as of October 19, 2026.
