Box & Bundle
The enormous box has to accommodate one of the largest desktop PSUs available today. On the face of the box, there is a photo of the PSU with the fan and fan grill in clear view. There is the 80 Plus Titanium badge, but the Cybenetics one is missing. Everything is neatly arranged inside the box, and packing foam surrounds the expensive PSU. Inside a nylon case, you will find a vast amount of modular cables, and the PSU is in another bag. The bundle includes zip ties, velcro straps, a PSU jump starter, mounting bolts, a case badge, and many cable combs for the individually sleeved cables.

The PSU’s dimensions are gigantic, making the fan look small. It also uses Noctua’s standard colors for its top cover, which some users love while others hate. Thankfully, this is a PSU, so it won’t need to go to any beauty contests. We find a heavy-duty power switch at its front side, an IEC (60320) C20 heavy-duty male socket, and a push-button for toggling on/off the PSU’s semi-passive fan operation.
Around the back, the modular panel has 19x sockets, including a pair of 12V-2×6 native ones.

The amount of provided cables is vast, including a pair of 12V-2×6 cables that can deliver up to 600W. There are also three EPS and six PCIe connectors. Lastly, the amount of SATA and
The number of peripheral connectors is sufficient, and the distance between the SATA connectors is adequate. On the contrary, the 4-pin Molex connectors are relatively close to each other.
Thank you for the through review. Did you test for EMF? I don’t recall seeing it in the review.
EMI? Nope.
it’s up there with the 1kW (or more) passive PSU on the: impressive feat, but what for? list
with such a high load components you use absolutely will make tons of noise, even the beast won’t be able to handle them, so… it’s beyond flagship, it’s just a showoff
unless some users use custom water cooling with silent fans and huge radiators.
