Photos

The box is the same as for the 850 W model. At the face is a photo of the PSU with the model and wattage descriptions. The power specifications, various badges, and icons describing the PSU's compliances and certifications are on the back.


I would like to see better protection than just bubble wrap inside the box.


The bundle includes fixing bolts, zip ties, the user manual, and cables.


The non-restrictive fan grille is good news for airflow. It also allows a clear view at the for more airflow designed fan blades.


You will find the power specifications label on one of the sides, while the other has the stamped-in be quiet! logo.


The modular panel has nine sockets.


The white accent around the fan is a nice detail.


Some more photos of the PSU from various angles.

Cables and Connectors

While there are only two 4-pin Molex connectors, there are two EPS and six PCIe ones. The ATX and PCIe connectors use thicker16AWG gauges for lower voltage drops, and the EPS connectors use the standard 18AWG wires. Since this PSU is for large cases, I would like to see longer ATX and EPS cables—these should respectively be 50 mm and 100 mm longer.


Two PCIe connectors are on dedicated cables; these connect to a 12-pin socket on the modular PCB.


The peripheral connectors are spaced adequately far apart. More than two 4-pin Molex connectors would be nice. be quiet! could get rid of the FDD connector and install an additional 4-pin Molex in its stead.
