BeQuiet! StraightPower 700w PSU - The Bundle

What's included in the bundle?

The box. I'm liking the glowing edges on the word "Straight". We received the UK version hence the Union Jack.

On the box you can see BeQuiet's classic big cat trademark, it's instantly recognisable to anybody that's familiar with the company. The lid of the box opens to reveal the goodies inside as there's a clear window looking down onto the fan of the PSU. The box looks classy and stylish, and whilst it features info on the PSU, it's not overcrowded.

A diagram of the cables and their lengths is displayed on the back of the box. This image has been resized, and thus it is hard to see the details properly. Click on it to see a larger version.

On the back of the box is a large diagram of all the cables and their respective connectors. A pretty useful feature if you ask me as you can see what cables and connectors the PSU has before you buy it (if you were buying it in a store), and it also enables you to check if the cables will reach where you want them to go. If you have a large case or a case where the PSU is mounted at the bottom such as the Antec P180, cable length can be an important thing to look out for.

The accessories included with the StraightPower 700w.

Included with the PSU you will receive:

• Power cable
• Conventional screws
• Thumb screws
• Velcro straps
• Cable ties
• Manual

Whilst they're only small and inexpensive items, the inclusion of the velcro and cable ties is a nice touch as both can and will help with your cable tidying. The manual will be included if you buy this PSU, but we didn't receive one. I have however had a look at a PDF version and it's very comprehensive. It comes in German, English, Spanish and French and assists you in installing the PSU and connecting everything up. It also explains in detail all the features and technical specifications of the unit. If you're like me then you probably don't normally bother reading manuals, you prefer to work things out for yourself and refer to the manual only if you get stuck...

But this manual is probably worth a read anyway I'd say, you might learn something from it actually.
