Photos

The box is enormous and heavy. At the front is a photo of the PSU with the modular board exposed. The model number is highlighted in big white font, and the efficiency description and voltage input support are also shown.

Protection inside the box is good.

The bundle of my sample does not include Velcro straps or even zip ties, only the necessary cables, set of fixing bolts, and heavy-duty AC power cord.

There is no power switch at the front, which is typical of Enhance Electronics platforms, and a C20 receptacle is used to handle the increased amperage.

One of the sides has the PSU's model number; the power specifications table is on the other side.

The modular panel has nineteen sockets.

The PSU is large, measuring 180 mm deep.

Some more photos of the PSU from various angles.

Cables and Connectors

SATA (500 mm+140 mm+140 mm+140 mm)	3	12	18AWG	No
4-pin Molex (500 mm+150 mm+150 mm) / FDD (+150 mm)	1	3 / 1	18–22AWG	No

There are plenty of cables and connectors. The only problem is that there are no 12+4 pin connectors, so the PSU is not ATX v3.0 compatible. I expect Cooler Master to soon release a revised version that supports the newest ATX specification. Given the upcoming GPU generation will have increased energy requirements, strong PSUs like the M2000 won't be as rare as they are now.
