Box & Bundle
Typically, the box features a photo of the product on its front. On the same side, you will find the efficiency badges and the model number, along with a description of the capacity. Around the back are more details on the product’s technical specifications.

Although the exterior design doesn’t feature any exotic elements, the elegant fan grille, ruffled fan wings, and white accent around the fan form an appealing combination. At the unit’s front side, there is no switch to enable or disable semi-passive operation. On the same side, you will find the AC receptacle and the power switch.
The modular panel has nine sockets, including a native 12V-2×6 header.

There are enough cables and connectors to handle the unit’s max power smoothly. I would like it to have a longer ATX cable, reaching 600mm, and why not EPS cables that reach 700mm. This is to ensure compatibility with massive chassis, where these two cables must be routed and cover relatively large distances. Of course, the shorter the cables, the lower the energy losses, which is why some brands tend to send PSUs with ultra-short cables for efficiency certification in schemes that do not specify cable length in their reports.
It is good to see 16AWG gauges in the high-power cables and 18AWG as the minimum in all power transfer gauges. Lastly, the distance between the peripheral cables is ideal, at 150mm.
