HCG-400 

Antec's High Current power supplies are the perfect PSU combination of power and efficiency. The 
High Current Gamer features a high-power +12V rail and special heavy-duty High Current connectors 
and cabling that supply extreme levels of power, and also superb efficiency thanks to 80 PLUS® 
BRONZE certification and Active PFC. Highest-quality gold-plated connectors, Japanese-brand 
capacitors and quiet 135 mm double ball bearing fans complete the package. If loads of power, High 
Current engineering and extreme efficiency are what you're after, the High Current Gamer is the PSU 
for you. 

 

STANDARDS AND FEATURES 

The connectors and power specifications of the HCG-400 PSU are all compatible with ATX12V v2.32 
and EPS12V v2.92 specifications. The HCG-400 features Universal Input, which automatically senses 
when you connect the power supply to any AC power source between 100 - 240V without setting a 
voltage switch. This power supply also features Active Power Factor Correction (PFC), which improves 
the power factor value of the power supply by altering the input current wave shape, helping to power 
transmission across the grid. 

 

SYSTEM PROTECTION 

A variety of industrial-grade safety circuitry will help protect your computer: Over Current Protection 
(OCP), Over Voltage Protection (OVP), Under Voltage Protection (UVP), Short Circuit Protection (SCP), 
Over Power Protection (OPP), Surge & Inrush Protection (SIP) and Brown-Out Protection (BOP). 
Sometimes the PSU will “latch” into a protected state. You will need to power off the PSU and clear the 
fault before it will function again. There are no user-replaceable fuses in your HCG-400.
