Overview
The FOCUS GM-650 packaging is about what we would expect to see given that this is a refresh of the FOCUS line of power supplies and the previous examples follow this same layout. The front of the package is bare of information save for the advertising about the 7-year warranty, and the 80 Plus Gold seal. When we check the 80 Plus website we find that this unit is listed and, as such, we will see how it does in this regard later. The rear of the packaging has a lot more in the way of advertising as we find advertisements for the unit size, FDB fan, fan controller, voltage regulation, Japanese capacitors, gold plated connectors, etc. This is in addition to the efficiency graph found here as well. The side of the package has the power label (reproduced below) and the connector count (reproduced below).
The FOCUS GM-650 is advertised as being a single 12v rail power supply with a capacity up to 54A (or ~99% of the unit’s capacity) if necessary. The minor rails (5v and 3.3v) have a capacity of 20A each and the combined capacity of those two rails is 100W. Combined with these outputs, we find that this unit has 4 PCIe connectors, 6 SATA connectors, and 3 Molex connectors.
Once we open the FOCUS GM-650 packaging we find the power supply, mounting screws, modular cables, the power cord, Velcro straps, zip ties, power supply tester, and the user manual. The user manual comes in two parts and covers some basic installation, warranty, and troubleshooting items. Let’s move on to the unit itself now.
