Box & Bundle
You will find a photo of the PSU, with its modular panel in clear view, along with the model description and several badges, at the face of the box. The protection inside the package is good, and the bundle is rich enough, including an SFX to ATX adapter bracket to mount the PSU into a standard ATX chassis if you need/want to.
Product Photos
The fan grill’s perforations are large enough to allow for good airflow. The side stickers mention that this is an ATX v3.0 PSU, and we find several badges on the power specifications label, including the one for the seven-year warranty.

The cables are long enough for a small factor PSU, and it is always nice to see thicker gauges on high-amperage cables. The 12VHPWR connector in my sample was set to be recognized as only 150W, but TT assured me that all final units would ship with a 600W setting, even the smallest member of the Toughpower SFX family, with 750W max power. Apparently, no industry member gives a dime to the Intel ATX spec’s guidelines regarding setting the 12VHPWR connectors. Lastly, the distance between all peripheral connectors is ideal. This is something that Thermaltake doesn’t let me down, while most other brands do.
