The Antec HCG-900 has a lot of things to like going for it including what looked to be an excellent build quality, however at the end of the day the unit simply was not an excellent 900W unit as billed, but rather a decent 700W-ish unit. In addition to the failure to meet its full advertised output in our test environment, the HCG-900 was also a bit hamstrung by poor Transient Load Tests results and perhaps some poor quality control on the part of its connectors as the voltage regulation on the motherboard connector was significantly worse than on any other unless the unit was assisted during the testing. The Antec HCG-900 currently costs $145.00 it doesn’t even make much sense as a 750W power supply when the EA 750 outperforms it at $99.99.
