Nice and long cables for my Cooler Master 690, lots of connectors. Very quiet, all the cables are sheathed, it came with zip ties for cable management which is a nice touch.

I got this power supply to power my new gaming rig. Intel Dual-Core overclocked to 3.6Ghz, 8800GT Overclocked, 4GB RAM, 3 HDD, Xonar sound card and systems fans. Everything is running well.

Got the first one with ticking noise, looks like a re-build one.

Excellent PSU for it's price. It's pretty silent and i should be reliable on long term use. Bought it on sale. Worth every penny. I strongly recommend this product.

Just opening the box and taking this thing out told me it was good. It just felt nice in hand. Cables are sheathed and there are more ends than I knew what to do with. Came with a little baggy of zip-ties which is a nice add-on bonus. Fan is only noticable when the pc is running at full load but is just a woosh noise, no noticable harmonics or whines. Fan placement is my only complaint as it pulls air from my tower style CPU heatsink. This warms the PS and makes the fan run at a higher speed. I would have preferred a push-pull dual fan arrangement similar to the Antec I just replaced.

I'm using this power supply to power a Q6600 with 2 8800GT cards and it perform great. The build quality is awesome (when you get the box, you will notice it's very heavy and it's a good indicator of quality). All the wires is sleeved so it make it more clean (too bad it's not sleeved up to the end but it's not a biggie).

This PSU has been running my system perfectly. I read that corsair under rates their wattage, so it can dish out more if need be.

Running a 5000+ AMD 64 dual core black edition 2.6GHz overclocked to 3.2GHz with 5 x 500Gb hard drives, 2 in raid 0 and 3 in raid 5, stable quiet and so far so good! Recommended. Has the ATX 2.2 standard CPU power connector (make sure that your selected PSU will work with your particular mobo - the 2.01 standard PSU's dont have this 24v connector for the CPU).
