I really like the rough paint job. Like Revolution85+ ones

And CM does it once again, I think I'm going to get CoolMaster Tattooed across my forehead.

I have the original 900w UCP, it is awesome. I am glad they raised the bar even higher!

I had two Cooler Masters PSUs before this Corsair unit. A 500Watt followed by a 460Watt, both with 2x18A rails. They both handled anything I threw at them. The 500 ran insane amounts of load with a busted fan until it finally fried gloriously. Rock on Cooler Master.

The one at newegg is AAAA-A3,and this one is AAAA-A4 so they must be different.

Right, new revision. Hopefully it won't be a turd like the A3.

The first 80+ Gold certificate went to SeaSonic, I think, so this CM isn't the first 90%+ PSU around... Anyway, I'm curious what's inside - it's very likely to be aChannel Welll, they've got quite a few Gold models listed on 80plus.org, including a 950W monster.

Ahhh, people keep reading things wrong.. 'the highest rated 80 Plus power supply to-date by achieving a typical efficiency of 90.05%'

Advertisement buddy, advertisement.

I'm not gonna lie, that is impressive. Very well done

Antec's new professional series PSUs have a gold cert as well. So Seasonic, CM and Antec Professional. Looks like Corsair needs to catch up
