Great power supply for computer components

Just installed, great power supply. Here's what you need to know: 1 - Connecting the main cable is difficult, e.g. B. very difficult to insert (probably due to stuck plugs). It's also weird as you have to split about 1/3 of the cable and connect it on top of the other part and twist it in the opposite direction, this could have been designed better. However, once you plug it in, you don't need to mess around with it anymore. 2 - you don't specify it, but PCI cables have 2 6+2 pin connectors per cable and if you use your card the extra connector needs to be tethered or it will end up in your GPU fan. (I recommend getting extensions). Again, one could include 2 or 3 cables for the PCIe, which is one connector per cable, as this is the best way for two or three card connectors. 3 - The reason I deducted a star. noise and vibration. Because the fan grill is on the outside of the PSU and fits snugly in my case, I get terrible vibrations. Now I need to take it out of its case and try to see if there's another way to put it in so it doesn't vibrate. I'm using a corsair icue 220t case so everything is sealed and it sits on rubber isolators which should prevent that. Overall a great power supply but put a little more effort into the design and could have been perfect.

Pros
  • Quick change
Cons
