BitFenix Fury Gold 750 W Review

A Look Inside & Component Analysis »

Packaging


The unit comes in a nice box that highlights its sleeved cables of high quality on the front. The badges for its 80 Plus Gold certification and five year warranty are also readily visible because of their size and location.


The model number, a photo of the unit, and the 80 Plus Gold badge are displayed on this side of the box.


Here is a label with the complete model number and another photo of the PSU.


The unit's crucial features are listed on this side, in three languages.


Here is a list of all available connectors; however, there is no mention of cable length or amount.


A series of icons on the rear of the box cover the unit's more crucial features, and these include its Gold-certified efficiency, Active PFC, braided nanosleeve cables, which are the highlight, Haswell compatibility, although not true with its current power specifications, semi-modular cabling design, Japanese capacitors, FDB fan, single +12V rail, complete set of protection features, and Bitfenix's aggressive design. Two tables on this side also depict the unit's technical and power specifications.

Contents


The contents of the box are very nicely arranged, showing Bitfenix's attention to detail.


The bundle includes a quick installation guide, a set of fixing bolts, three reusable cable ties, an AC power cord, and the modular cables.

Exterior


The front features a classic honeycomb-style exhaust grill and a handy on/off switch. Enhancing the unit's appearance, the silver frame around the fan on top looks very nice.


One of two sides hosts the specifications label while the other comes with a nice decal.


The rear features several modular sockets and the affixed ATX cables with its individually sleeved wires that simply look awesome. The cable-exit hole also has a grommet to protect the ATX cable, although the hole is pretty large.


Readily visible in a windowed case as most users will install the PSU with the fan facing downward, Bitfenix engraved its very own impressive logo into the bottom of the unit.


Its dimensions are pretty small, and the Fury-750G has definitely looks nice despite its common front, where an exhaust grill in a different style rather than the boring honeycomb design would have been a significant visual upgrade.


Sleeving is of very good quality, and Bitfenix avoided heatshrinks with many connectors, which makes for a very nice final result. This unit's highlight and most crucial feature are these individually sleeved cables, so Bitfenix made a point of paying them a lot of attention.


The cables do look nice, and it is very hard to provide such sleeving for a mass-produced product, which inevitably increases cost and affects the final price. Bitfenix, however, did manage to keep the price at decent levels given that other vendors sell a complete set of similarly sleeved cables for $80-$90. And you will obviously have to buy the corresponding PSU to use them, which means you pay for the plain cables such units ship with. Bitfenix decided to take the plain cables out of the equation by offering high-quality cables for those who want something unique for their system.
