All cables are of course supplied. There are a total of six cable sets. The ATX connector and the 4-pin +12V cable are not detachable, the rest however is.

  • 15" sleeved cable for main 20/24-pin ATX connector
  • 18" auxiliary 12V connector for processors that require it
  • 25" cable with two 4-pin IDE drive connectors and one floppy drive power connector
  • 2 x 25" cable with three 4-pin IDE drive connectors
  • 25" cable with two SATA drive connectors
  • 16" 6-pin auxiliary power connector for PCI Express

The cables are EMI (Electro Magnetic Interference) shielded with the help of that plastic coating, the shielding is supposed to be copper based and while it does not look to be so they might make use of a copper alloy or something. This shielding makes the cables a little stiff, not at all an issue though. The fact that the cables are rounded makes them look good in let's say an open or modded case with window, even better in a watercooled system. Oh hey, and they are even UV light reactive, if you wish that retro 80ies feeling.

For the silence freaks among you, a nice feature is a built-in fan controller, which at several stages will make the fan spin harder or softer. I wouldn't call the fan silent though. It's clearly there. But definitely less louder then your average PSU. The fan is also equipped with a lovely blue LED, especially nice in cases with a transparent window you will love this effect at night-time.

And what's a Guru3D.com review without a photo of the box eh? That's a kilo or 2-3 you are looking at though.
