First, the pros that are basically just main features of the PSU. These are all available in the product specs / advertising, but I'll confirm that this PSU delivers on the specs: - Fan operates in off / medium / high modes, depending on power draw. It is nice and quiet, even with the fan running. My systems usually have other fans that are relatively quiet, nice Noctuas mostly, and this one blends in. Partly, that's because it's not running too fast -- so even if it's not quiet like a Noctua, it's also not running at high speeds most of the time. - 80 Plus Gold efficiency rating, which is good. - Fully modular, keeping the excess cabling to a minimum -- and allowing full custom cabling. - 10 year warranty, a very reasonable span of time for retail hardware. I am endlessly frustrated by components where manufacturers seem to have all decided that one or two years is all you can count on. Corsair PSUs are, generally, regarded as very reliable. Of course, you can't rely on brand name alone, but a good track record is certainly great. I didn't tear this PSU apart because there are more qualified tech bloggers out there, but they can tell you that Corsair PSUs generally have quality parts. You can also see in reviews, in the aggregate, that Corsair usually provides good warranty (and non-warranty) support. Second, the practicals of the system -- cable quantity, variety, etc.: - The cables included are a nice mix. The specs aren't too clear, only listing total connectors. I find the 3x EPS very handy for my weird use-cases (honestly, I wish there were four, so I could supplement some other Corsair PSUs that didn't come with enough). This is what I have in the box: -- 1x 24 pin ATX - 24" -- 3x 8 pin EPS "CPU" - 25" -- 2x double 8 pin PCIe "GPU" - 29" -- 1x quad 4 pin Molex - 30" -- 2x quad SATA - 33" -- 2x triple SATA - 29" -- If you're using these approximate measurements to help you plan a build, don't cut it too tight, your cables might be slightly different and you will need to account for stiffness in the cables, bends, etc. especially with the 24-pin ATX cable. -- Other reviews have different numbers of these.. not sure if that's right, but the box lists these explicitly and this matches the connector count in the specs. - The cables are Corsair standard "Type 4" cables. There is no industry standard, but having at least a branded standard helps if you are trying to swap with other PSUs or buy replacements (on brand or off brand). Always take care that your cables are correct for your PSU! Finally, quality and reliability, based on my observations and testing: - The cables flat and strong, which is good, although that makes them a bit difficult to route. (But once they are routed, they hold in place nicely and zip tie up snugly.) - Even the cable to the wall is long (about five feet) and beefy, not just an afterthought. I would expect it to be reliable and durable. - The unit tested well - nominal voltages etc. were right where they should have been at 12V, 5V, 3.3V. Cable connectivity was good, even under moderate stress and agitation. The system was stress tested on a 32-core system eating power on all three EPS cables - no issues at all.

Very Quiet

All needed cords for my setup were present

Good brand Good wattage Good price

- 16-pin PCIe connector. That wire with yellow plug look nice. - Stable

Well built and packaged.

comes with white cables PCIE 5.1 ready

Was on back order but only had to wait a few days for Newegg to replenish their stock. This PSU runs and powers up all my new devices and Strix Z790-E motherboard. The modular cabling is what grabs my attention the most as its very flexible to reroute , tie-wrap and create a very clean layout . Installed with a Asys Ryujin III 360 AIO cooler , Asus Prime GeForce 5060 Ti video card, etc

It's a shame the case hides the PSU because this one looks really sleek and nice. It is supplying power to the PC so I can confidently say it is working as intended.

This PSU is very quiet. Fan stays off most of the time. Very nice, solid construction. No rough or uneven edges. It looks like a lot of care was taken in building this PSU. Good price.

Modular Solid value Easy to install Easy to swap parts/cables

I upgraded my PC with a new motherboard, CPU and the Corsair CX650M power supply a couple of years ago. I like it so much I purchased a second one for a new PC build I am making for my grandson's Christmas present.

quiet and powerful ATX3.1 and PCIe 5.1 ready perfect for new Nvidia GPU

Asus Strix usually equals quality and it definitely hit an home run with this PSU Silent even with the fan ON Nice flexible cable
