Cons: Short cables (for bottom-mounted full tower cases).
Pros: Quiet; reliable; lots of power. Comment:
With the PC P&C name, you generally know you're buying a quality power supply. It's actually surprising to see them price this so low, considering what a great little PSU it is. In its price range, I cannot see any other PSU that outperforms this. It is extremely reliable, and actually pretty quiet, which came as a shock to me considering the fact that it only has an 80mm exhaust fan, whereas many modern PSUs have 120 or even 140mm fans on the bottom.If you are looking to stretch your budget as far as possible, but have extensive power needs, look no further. I ran this on my Skulltrail system, so you can imagine what else you could run on it. |

Cons: Non-modular
Pros: QuietHigh quality Comment:
I bought this power supply for my new PC build, after hearing good things about this brand (I normally buy Antec power supplies and thought I'd try something new).The overall quality of the power supply is excellent. Everything is solid, and it comes with good instructions for those that might need them.It runs extremely quiet. Probably does make some noise, but I can't hear it over my case fans in my Silverstone FT-01.My only disappointment is that it is not modular. I was in a rush to find a power supply and I added this to my cart, thinking that for the price it would be modular. It turns out it's not, so unfortunately I have about 8 extra cables in my case that I don't need.Other then that, it is a great PS! |

Cons: Lots o cables! Cable management is a must!!
Pros: Very quiet, robust stable output, good price, lengthy cables (on sale) Comment:
I bought this on sale a while ago and I have no beefs about it at all, other than the mass of cables. |

Cons: not modular
Pros: Quiteall plugs Comment:
Very good PSU, bought to replace the stock 500W one that came with my case, only problem I have with it is the fact that it isn't modular. I knew this when I bought it but finding a place to keep all the extra cable was a bit of a hassle. It does have all the plugs I need and is very quite for being a 750W PSU. Will be looking at PC power and cooling again in the future for sure. |

Cons: nothing holds this bad boy back
Pros: 60 Amps on a single rail, can you say GTX280? Comment:
New GPUs need more amps! watts doesnt count with new video cards(yes you still need enough watts to do the job), power supplies like this with massive rails that can handle 2 or 3 video cards are a must for enthusiasts. This PSU delivers the power you need at low temps and its not too hard on the wallet. It is not modular which is a BONUS (read on it people its not good) but lacks the connectors to run more than one REALLY large video card, 2 8800s or maybe 9800s would be the max, its SLI certified but it wont run three GTX280s. Overall its great! |

Running a overclocked 8800 Ultra with aftermarket heatsink 2gb overclocked ram e8400 cpu at 4050mhz samsung trudirect drive and 750 gb wd dual proc hdd everything runs fine. Myonlt beef with this thing is the lack of modulation. |

Cons: none
Pros: Single 60A railSteady power outputExtremely quiet. Comment:
I bought this to power my new 9800 GX2. It replaces an OCZ 600w GameXStream. I was a little concerned that the unit would be noisy due to the 80MM fan, but that concern was put to rest as soon as I fired it up. Very quiet operation! All the cables that you'll need are attached to this unit, including 2X6 pin and 2X8 pin PCIE's.This my first PC Power & Cooling unit....it probably won't be my last. |

Cons: -so many cables X_X, my Antec 1200 comes with cable management on one side and I cant fit everything in without closing the side!
Pros: -lots of cables-runs my whole case and then some Comment:
this is the best psu I've ever owned, it has so many cables to use, I was going to give a lower score because of too many cables, but then I realized, that's a good thing! I shall rate my antec lower then! |

Cons: Size is a bit bigger than the normal formfactor.Not modular
Pros: Silent, cool, efficient, powerful. Comment:
amazing PSU, just make sure your case fits a bigger than normal formfactor. It has 2 8pin PCIe power adapter (which can turn into 6pin + 2pin) and 2 6pin PCIe adapters. All you need to any crossfire/SLI needs. The other con is that it's not modular. |

Cons: None
Pros: High quality. Good length. Comment:
This is a great psu. It is 750w continous power, so it can actually peak into the 800s when needed. I don't even consider it not being modular as a weakness. If I wanted modular, I would have got one, but I wanted quality, so I went with this. Great psu. Would recommend to anyone. |

Got this to power my new comp (w/ Q6600, 9800GX2) and it works great. The unit runs almost silent and the computer sits not even a foot away from me. This is a great power supply, good job PCP&C. |

Cons: None
Pros: Great QualityLot Of ConnectorsSleeved CablesQuiet FanClean Stable Power Comment:
I got this to replace an aging Antec 550W coming to the end of it's life. It would cause my HDDs to hiccup. For the current build I have this PUS is overkill. However, I don't plan on replacing it when I do upgrade to a quad-core processor, x2 videocard and multiple drives in RAID. So there's a lot of head left for future upgrades.Great PSU! |

Cons: Not Modular.
Pros: Single Rail anyone? 60 amps on 12V is amazing. Lots of power. Well known high quality company. Quiet. Comment:
For $160 would be nice to see modular cables, especially considering how long it is. Clean power and a lot of it. |

Cons: None
Pros: High qualityQuietLots of headroomLots of connections and options Comment:
This is the most highly recommended PSU out there, and lives up to the reputation. It is very quiet, and stays cool. The 750w is enough for a quad core/sli set-up, with room to spare. The specs really sell this product, especially the 60A, single 12v rail. I haven't tried overclocking yet, but plan to, and am confident this PSU can handle anything I throw at it. If you want durability and quality, go for this PSU. You won't be disappointed. |

Pros: Good price, good build quality, extremely quiet, has enough power for anything you can throw at it. Comment:
I bought this supply as an open box from NCIX. first time I've ever done so, so I felt like I was taking a chance, but this supply has well exceeded my expectations. I bought it as a replacement for my Gamerxstream which is a great supply but very noisy. This supply is super quiet with only one 80mm fan, and I really couldn't be happier. A great purchase!! |

Cons: - Have to install upside down in some cases- Not modular- Bigger than normal PSU might not fit in some smaller cases at all
Pros: - Five months now and nothing so much as a hiccup form this PSU- 60A on 12V rail = PRO- Absolutely quiet- Wires are meshed Comment:
I have run this thing at very awkward intervals. Sometimes there's a 20 day uptime without a reboot, other times 10 days without being used. Each time I fire it up after a lull I get no arguements or moaning from the PSU or PSU fan.My last PSU couldn't take this kind of grinding and I would have to bash the case to get it to stop whining. it was nearing the end and I replaced it with the Silencer 750 and have never looked back.It is currently powering:65W Quad Core (undervolted overclocked)2x 8800GT4x1GB Ram b2.1VSB X-FI + Front PanelEVGA 780i2x 10k Raptor X Drives Raid 01x 500GB SATA HD2x AM GPU fans5x Chassis/Case FansLS Front Panel Thermal Monitor1x PCI Exhaust FanThis all draws quite a bit of power, and yet there is plenty left over for more (though the case can't hold much more, lol).Totally recommended for all 2-Card SLI setups and worth every penny.

Cons: Price
Pros: Quiet, well built, single rail 12V, futureproof Comment:
The single rail was what persuaded me to get this power supply, it comes with lots of connectors and long cables, which makes it a lot easier routing it in the P182 case, that being said this power supply is longer than others so it is a tight squeeze into the case. It comes with two 6 pin PCI-E connectors as well as another pair of 6+2 pin PCI-2 connectors makes it a lot more versatile. |

Cons: not modular
Pros: very stable powerblack Comment:
probably the best psu I've used, based on reviews and other people's recommendations. I have it in the 900 and I tucked all the extra cables underneath the drive cage at the bottom so its not that bad even though its not modular. |
PC Power and Cooling is one of the most respected psu manufacturers around no exceptions were made with this product. Everything about it has been designed for maximum stability, and longevity. Sure it may not have modular cables, but the engineers say its just another point to have a loose connection, and increase resistance. Thats the kind of thinking that goes into their products. The PSU is one of the most important components, and I will never buy anything other then pcpc, seasonic, or corsair. Highly recommended
