Over-current protection was set high on every rail, especially 3.3V. The same goes for over-power protection, which was set 230W higher than the PSU's nominal capacity.
We heated the SX650-G up to 200°C and it didn't shut down. So, as far as we're able to tell, this platform doesn't have over-temperature protection.
