Quality


Easy to install and connect, works perfectly, barely audible fan noise, no problem whatsoever.


Nice cables, quiet when not under strain, and can support most higher-range cpu-gpu combos


After a couple of days, it was identified that the 24 pin cable was faulty.


So yes a total of 4 pcie but with only 2 cables which is an issue with high end graphic card like 4080 that requires 3 seperated pcie

    My case fans are usually not quiet so i cannot comment about the psus fan noise


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I bought this unit to pair with a 7900 xtx as according to the documentation it comes with four pcie power cables


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Upon building my system i realized the unit only came with two pcie cables and three esp cables


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Still however if you need a psu with three or more pcie power this is not the one you want


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The only thing i dont like are the cables that comes with it they are very cheap
