Prefer 10 year warranty but 5 years for what it is isn't that bad seeing it's price...

Box says "low profile flat cables"...sounds like they skimped out on AWG gauge of wire.... I mean the price is pretty good for a PSU...from what I've seen. Just wish form factor was much smaller...

Not having a modular 12VHPWR makes it even safer, as you eliminate yet another possible bad connection on the PSU side ;)

it happened to me with a Seasonic 850W Gold, I was about to send the video card for RMA then I did some tests by changing the PCIe sockets... everything was solved, it was a faulty socket.
