What i'm annoyed is the first item i had received was dead on arrival. I'm so annoyed.
Highlights

High-quality psu for the demands of current cpu/gpus

I can honestly say this psu met my expectations and needs i was originally concerned as the server in question currently includes 12 x sata 7200rpm hdd with a potential power draw of considerable size

Very quiet though i havent done anything intensive so the fan hasnt turned on yet so i cant comment on the noise level whilst under load

Cons only comes with two separate pcie cables not a biggy but given the newer cards might be an issue for some

Can just use the extra connector on the one cable to get the 3 connections but that wont work for all

During idle the cooling fan remains off keeping the system quiet
