Remember that Seasonic Connect power supply? We have it on our test bench for a review today. It was finally introduced to the market on the 4th of March, after a long wait (they first presented it two years ago, at Computex 2018). It’s a brand new approach to the desktop PSU idea.

You need only two cables to link these segments together.
