Pros & Cons
Pros
For starters, it looks great. It was a nice touch that added to its already flawless functionality. Once i get everything and fire up the new beast i will put down here how it runs.
No unnecessary cables cluttering up space and reducing airflow. Comes in velour pouch with velcro lid. The modular cables are great.

Packaging/appearance
I was very happy with the packaging and the many extra cords.
The packaging from corsair is very nice, you are investing in a high quality product and they want you to feel that way as soon... Read More
), the psu comes wrapped in a velvet satchel, the packaging is over sized, and it's all heavily padded.
Competitiveness
I like nzxt, the chief competitor at them moment with their new and very popular 1000w power supply.
I've have a generic case with a no-name psu for 6 years.
Every once in a while with a high overclock when rebooting.
