The PSU and cables all come in a cloth pouch. Delivered with the PSU are the simple basics like power cable manual and screws. As stated, this is a 100% modular model.

After unpacking, not a dent, scratch or smudge was on the unit. Rough matte dark finish, nice black theme. Obvioously the PSU is ready for all upcoming CPU & GPU generations and offers a superb capacity on its four 12V rails.

At the front and top side we spot a nice honeycomb air vent; it allows for optimal airflow running through the PSU, cooling down its components and keeping them nicely efficient. Also, obviously we spot the power connector and on/off switch.

The PSU complies to EPS12V PSU design guides for compatibility & C6 state functions. Meaning powered off or in sleep mode it should consume less then one watt. There's plenty of Ampage to go around, impressive are the four 12V rails rated at 40 AMPs each.
