Long cablesHigher amperage/wattage for the price Wish they had a blue version, to match every thing else I have in my box :( I adore this PSU. I'm amazed at just how extended the cables are. Even with anything running behind my mobo, there have been no issues with cables reaching exactly where i necessary them to go. |

So far so excellent! Ive always liked Antec's energy supplies, but until lately ive been getting corsair. I wanted to Run two Radeons HD 6950 crossfire, but my Corsair 650w couldn't cut it. So far this PSU is operating perfectly, I appreciate it! Not Modular but I cant complain to a lot the price tag was wonderful.

Had to get this PS for my Video Card. Just wanted a tiny added power. The red appears nice. My last Antec PS had yellow on it. None as of yet. It is nevertheless new. Just hope it dose not go out. The cables are a tiny longer than the final energy supply. Even with the 1200 I had to genuinely cram cables. My method now is as show. It works fine with the 900w PS:Antec 1200 Black Steel ATX Complete Tower Computer system CaseAntec HCG-900 900W, Energy SupplyAsus Crosshair IV Formula AMD 890FX MotherboardAMD Phenom II X4 970 Black Edition 3.5GHz (ʄ.0GHz)Corsair H70 Water Cooling for CPU Corsair Domimator 16GB Ɣx4)DDR3 SDRAM 1600Drive#C Western Digital 600GB Sata6g 10000RPM DriveDrive#D Western Digital 2TB Caviar Black DriveDrive#E Plextor 48x DVDR Burner SATA Model PX-880SADrive#F Plextor 12x BLU-RAY Burner SATA Model PX-B940SADrive#Q Western Digital 3TB Caviar Green DriveDrive#R Western Digital 3TB Caviar Green DriveDrive#W Western Digital 3TB Caviar Green DriveDrive#X Western Digital 2TB Caviar Green DriveDrive Q&R,W&X are in a Vantec Drive Bay'sEVGA NVIDIA GeForce Classic GTX 590 GDDR5 3GBSamsung 23" Monitor P2370Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatality SpecialistLogitech Z-5500 Digital 5.1 Speaker ProgramMicrosoft Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit |

Cons: price
Pros: colordesignpower Comment:
this power supply has loads of power to handle a computer with the best video cards out there. it looks nice with its red and black color. i had paid about 100 fot it many months ago (cant remember) and now above 150 its a high price but still a good power supply to have and worth the price. |

Cons: Not modular; quite long
Pros: 900W - very futureproof; lots of connectors Comment:
Great power supply, 900W will be sufficient for almost all users. Tons of SATA connectors, though almost too many. Would be better if modular but at the price I got it ~$100, a good deal. CPU power cable is a bit too short for me Corsair 600T (cannot be routed around the back of the case). |

Cons: Not as quiet as I'd like
Pros: Good priceLove the colour Comment:
When I upgraded my video card, I was silly and didn't notice that my PSU wasn't powerful enough to handle it, and just like NCIX seems to do, this PSU came on sale the day I realized it. (Thanks!) This power supply works very well in my computer, and the red casing matches the rest of my setup perfectly. It is somewhat louder than I would like, however it is very easy to tune out, even at nighttime. |

Cons: Wish it was modular
Pros: Plenty of power for my needs.Quiet Comment:
I bought this to replace my aging PC Power Cooling Silencer 750Watt power supply. This power supply seems much more stable to handle two 460GTX cards in sli and other devices that I have installed in my system. Definitely would recommend this power supply. |

Cons: Way louder than my previous power source, but more than double the power so i guess that might be normal.
Pros: Way more power than i need, but it should last me a long time. good investment Comment:
This was for the first tower i put together myself and, the configuration of the cables made it simple to hook everything up. tones of room for upgrade. hope it lasts me a long time. but yah, i'd say its on the loud side. |

Cons: Only 80+ Bronze Certified
Pros: Solid ConstructionGreat appearanceQuality molex and SATA cables that are easy to plug inNice High Currect Power Cord (from the wall) Comment:
I bought this power supply when I replaced my GA-870A-UD3 with a GA-990FXA-UD5, and also put a second Sapphire 6850 in to enable crossfire. My 1090T is overclocked to 4Ghz, I have 5x2TB SATA HDD's and One Momentus XT Hybrid DRive, anyway the list of other power draining parts goes on, suffice it to say it is easily handling that large load. Even long term Stress and Power Supply Loads.The unit has great solid construction, nice well made power and data connectors, and of course a great look to it. The Power Cable (from the wall) is amazingly thick and can handle a huge currect draw. I would absolutely buy another one of these, have already recommened it to a few buddies. |

Cons: not modular but it wasn't advertised as such... so not really a 'con'
Pros: comes in very good packaging, very well protected and inside a nice cloth bag to prevent scratches and dust.has 4x 6/8 pin pcie connectors and plenty of sata/molex along with a 4/8pin cpu plug.actual power output of the 12v is 850w and 3/5v is 150w or 1000w total peak output.cords are sleaved for asthetics and protectin against sharp edges inside your case and come wrapped up in reusabe black zipties for cable management inside you case to help with airflow.

better than my $200 corsair 750w power supply for only $110 |

Cons: Cable lenght Not modular
Pros: Great power supplyNot loud Comment:
This power suply is great if you don't want to hear it. Maybe for the same price have a modular one. The cable lenght is a little problem if you want to mask your cable in a case like the cool master haf x eatx |
its new .its 900 watts it says four , 12 volt rails when it is actually 2 rails with 2 extra leads on each rail . 24 pin connect isnt extended adequate to match an antec 1200 case [wow] antec cant even make the instances and energy supplies match up . it will fit if you mount it upside down dum dum move antec should be purpose number one particular make certain your power supplies fit the cases you make . this is kinda stupid in there portion . all of there cases are bottom mount power supplies . so what do they do make a top rated mount power supply dummies great move. who wants to buy one particular of there cp power supplies that only works with there instances. some businesses assume them selves out of costomers . it only has 6 fan plugs to but the 1200 has 8 fans . if i had it to do over i'd looked else were for a power supply
