Then the MKII came with a 135mm fan which made the heatsinks much smaller but still keeping away from what the original argument was about the 120mm fans..
I hate these type of PSU's as one thing for sure is the heatsinks are way smaller. So if the fan does fail those much smaller heatsinks are not going to able to take shit.
AND WTF warrenty with the MK1 was 5 year and the MKII was 7 year so WTF is it with going back to 5 year warrantys with the MKIII.
OCZ Z series 850w

135mm fan + big heatsink xD
I don't know why into the MKIII they have small heatsink like that..

The heatsinks on the MK1 is massive compared to the one on the MKII. The 80mm fan does a dam good job with the much larger heatsinks. Although some common sense is required like allways and clean the dust out but that goes for all of them in fact probably more so fo PSU's with larger fans but smaller heatsinks.
MK1 heatsinks much more logical to have air flow that direction too
