A Closer Look Continued:


Notice the Dual ATX Lines

Nice 20+4 Connection

Beefy Titanium Finish

Sata Connections

Dual PCI-e Connections

    Now we take a closer look at the cables themselves. They're quite unique to the market and I've personally never seen any like it before, not in a power supply anyway. They kind of remind me of some cable shielding you might find on a super expensive stereo system. Think Monster Cable or something like that. So there's no confusion, that's a good thing.

    The cables do not feel stiff at all, but still have that quality feel you look for. The "sleeving" (if you can even call it that) looks to be a clear covering over thick silver wires. The thickest I've seen on a power supply actually. Every single inch of wire exiting the power supply box, all the way to inside the plugs, is sleeved with this heavy duty shielding.  As I look at the massive amount of cables coming outta the power supply, the one phrase that comes to mind most is "Industrial Grade". They just look so beefy like they should be used to connect super computers or something.

    Anyway, back to the usage of the cables...in a word: easy. All of the cabling is very flexible and with little memory. Meaning you can literally just about tie them in a knot, albeit a big knot ;)

    The plugs are very tight on the wires and are of great quality. No worries about the typical cheap power supply feel with molex plugs that literally jiggle on the end of the wiring because they're so loosely built. Not these babies. Every single wire inserted into the plug connections is very snug and again, great quality feel.

    Also to quickly again touch on the fact that this is NOT a modular power supply, that can actually be a "must have" for some of you, particularly those of you with a certain Lian Li V1000 chassis. You know who you are (or thinking about being that guy) because of the one-sided cabling output on the power supply cage. This would be a perfect power supply for something like a Lian Li V1000 chassis or probably any other inverted ATX or BTX system. The cables should certainly be long enough.
