Box & Bundle
The box has a photo of the PSU on its front side and the corresponding Cybenetics ratings for efficiency and noise. If you want more data about the PSU’s technical specs, look at the back of the box.

The chassis has a distinct look, with the uniquely shaped perforations that Corsair used for the fan and exhaust grilles. Moreover, the PSU has standard dimensions, allowing for a 140mm fan to offer the desired airflow at low enough RPMs for reduced noise output. On the front side, you will find the power switch, the AC receptacle, and the fan speed control knob. Around the back, the modular board has 14x sockets, one of which is 12V-2×6 type. Corsair didn’t use 2x 8-pin sockets in these PSUs for the high-power PCIe connector, but preferred a native one.

First of all, all cables are embossed. Secondly, the PSU has two EPS and four PCIe 6+2 pin connectors, all on dedicated cables, which is the correct/best thing to do. There is also a high-power PCIe connector, set at 600W max power. There are plenty of cables and connectors, and all cables are long enough to avoid compatibility issues. I only disagree with the short distances between the peripheral connectors.
