At the face of the box is the PSU's model number and a series of badges depicting various features, including the Gold efficiency certification. The back offers up more information about the PSU.
Protection inside the box is good, and the PSU is also wrapped in plastic.
The bundle includes fixing bolts, zip ties, and a piece of paper with a QR code for the user manual.
The fan grille could be less restrictive for better airflow. The exhaust/front utilizes a typical honeycomb grille, and the power switch and C14 AC receptacle have also been placed here. For a 1250 W PSU, I would like to see a C20 receptacle instead.
The power specifications label has been put on the bottom of the PSU. On the sides, a sticker describes the model number and capacity.
The modular panel is not very user-friendly. The connectors in the middle sockets are impossible to remove if you don't remove the bottom ones first. With room to spare, the modular sockets could be installed spaced further apart as a solution to this problem.
Measuring only 160 mm deep, this PSU is compact for the capacity.

The ATX cable is long at 650 mm, and the same goes for the EPS and PCIe connectors. Overall, plenty of connectors are available, which makes sense since we are talking about 1250 W of power. The EPS and PCIe cables use 16AWG gauges for lower voltage drops. Having no in-cable caps is nice since it makes the cables more flexible.
The only thing I dislike is the short distance between peripheral connectors.
