I just got this not to long ago. Just found the time to unbox it now.
Figured I would snap some pics while I was at it and go over some thoughts.
In no way would I consider this a review, those can be best done by those qualified, johnny guru comes to mind and I believe he has a review on this particular unit so you can check that out for technical details.
I will however try to beat the snot out of it over this week in vantage with thuban + 2x 5970 and gulftown 3x gtx 480 .cfgs and take wattage draw readings via killawatt.
The box art is preety simple.
A few key features Corsair has chose to print on the box.
Once you get through the outer package it's clear corsair tried to keep it simple and well packed.
As we see here Corsair is still using the felt bag they include with there high end PSU's, although a nice touch the bag is not necesary.
Shot of the unit out of the felt bag.
Close up of the power speccing.
A few shots of the unit from various sides.
A shot of all the cables that come with it.
A comparison in size to some other 1200W units.
Last a shot of it fully cabled based on what my needs are.
I like the fact that it has a power switch, Almost forgot what one of those were.
Modular, well I would personally prefer hard wired 24pin, 4+4 CPU and PCI-E but I'm sure this will go over well with the case modding crowd.
I would have liked to have seen all cables sleeved seeing as they already did it with half of the cables provided.
All in all it's a nice unit and i can't wait to give it a spin this week to see what it can handle.
