Packaging

The box strictly follows EVGA's design guidelines. Its color scheme is the same as that of both high-end SuperNOVA units we reviewed a while ago. On the front of the box is the model description, and a tiny 80 Plus Bronze badge can be found near the bottom-left corner.


As EVGA is known to do, one side lists some of their achievements.


The rear has some photos of the unit but no internal shots, which would have been nice. Here, you will also find a features list, the specifications table, and a description of all available cables equipping the unit.

Contents

The first thing we saw upon opening the box was the user's manual on top of the PSU. The latter is protected by bubble wrap to ensure it reaches its new owner in pristine condition. The bundle includes the manual, AC power cord, and a set of fixing bolts. To save some money, no Velcro straps or zip ties were included.

Exterior

The unit looks good because of the well-designed fan grill, and the finish is nice. The on/off switch at the front resides next to the AC receptacle, and a specifications label has been installed on both sides. The cables at the rear are all fully sleeved, and there is a grommet around the cable-exit hole.


Its dimensions are pretty compact, and although all cables are fixed, their number is restricted, which should make cable management easy unless fully modular units have spoiled you.


The cables are not stealth but are fully sleeved in sleeving of acceptable quality for the unit's price range. The same category includes units with unsleeved cables, so EVGA's efforts are definitely satisfactory.
