The fan grille's design is restrictive; the same applies to the unit's exhaust.
There are ventilation holes on the sides, too.
The misaligned power specifications label is installed at the bottom side.
The small modular panel has eleven sockets.
Measuring 160 mm in depth, this PSU has a compact enough footprint.
Here are some more photos of the PSU from various angles.

The cables are long and use the standard 18AWG gauges, with only the sense wires that have to be thinner. There are only two cables for the PCIe 6+2 pin connectors, but this won't be an issue when most users will eventually go with the 12+4 pin PCIe. As I already mentioned, the latter should have its sense pins set for 300 W max power, but Thermaltake chose to ground both pins, rating it at 600 W. In other words, the 12VHPWR connector informs the card that it can deliver up to 600 W of power, which is not appropriate in a 750 W PSU, since the rest of the system's parts also need power.
The distance between the peripheral connectors is adequate at 150 mm.
