Rosewill LIGHTNING Series LIGHTNING-800 800W Continuous @50°C,80 PLUS GOLD Certified,Pipe-rock Modular Design,Single +12V Rail,ATX12V v2.3/EPS12V v2.92,SLI Ready,CrossFire Ready,Active- PFC ,Fan LED color switch Power Supply

Pros: I bought this power supply because I am planning on going to a faster processor, ram, and video card. My old one was going to be so close to being over powered that I had to get a bigger power supply. The nice thing about this power supply is that the cords you don't need can be stored in the bag. I also liked how it came with all the mounting hard ware and a thicker power supply cable to help feed the power supply.

Cons: So far I have nothing bad to say about this power supply.

Pros: Love the multi colored ports and the connectors, came with a carrying case to hold all the wires you aren't in need of. Works like a champ powering all the things I have hooked to it.

Cons: None at all.

Other Thoughts: I would recommend this product to those that want to build a beast of a machine.

Pros: This thing came with a bag that had every PCU wire you would ever need.
When you plug the wires into the output and turn the rig on, there are lights that are inside the PCU that turn on.
This thing is 800W and has more than enough power for me.

Cons: None

Pros: I got this because I like lights and because it was gold certified. I can say very confidently that this is a great quality power supply and that your money will feel well spent. The bright lights in the picture kind of give me the feeling that this is gimmicky for the lights and isn't good quality - the lights aren't too distracting and I am certain that this power supply is worth it not just for the lights.

Cons: None so far, although a part of me wishes all the modular cable lights were on all time! Maybe a switch to control the lights would be better.

Other Thoughts: Feels good to know that your expensive computer parts are getting a clean electrical current.

Pros: This is the highlight of my Man Cave. The first thing you see upon entering my domain, is the Light Snow.... An acrylic, clear case with lots of colorful fans. heat syncs and flashing devices. This power supply is the hi-point of my case. Powerful and good looking. The blue red and green lights really stand out! I know of at least '10' people who want me to build the exact system for them.

Cons: Nada......I am a believer.

Pros: awesome, 800 watts, looks cool. Lights up and stuff. So many plugs and cords you get make it a really good deal.

Cons: the instructions are absolutely horrible. You will have to google or youtube set up. Literally, it'd be more helpful if they didn't give you instructions. I wanted to rate it 1 egg due that, but that's stupid. Just google it.

Other Thoughts: the mystery button on the back, the one that looks like a votlage switch (which this type of power supply doesn't have)...IT'S THE DARN COLOR CHANGER!

Pros: Modular, Single 12v rail, relatively quiet, solid, dependable.

Cons: Had a little trouble keeping the +4 pin on the 20+4 connector in it's socket. The cable was pretty stiff, but I got it routed so it wouldn't pop off. This is in an Antec 1200 case going to a Sabertooth MB.

Other Thoughts: Originally had doubts about going w/ Rosewill on the PSU, wasn't real familiar with them. After 15 months of use, have to say it was a good choice, no regrets at all.

Pros: Pretty to look at.

Cons: Unit is failing after 5 months.

Pros: This PSU comes fully loaded with every cable you will need. This is my first review on Newegg, so pardon any mistakes, but I just want to say this PSU is doing exactly what it should be. It is a great deal for a 80 PLUS GOLD PSU, and it comes with a very organized bag of every cord you'll need to set your system up.

One little detail I liked was that when it came in, there were little plastic tabs at the entry point for the cables. This shows professionalism and care for their product.

There is a very easily available switch for your LED to change from red, to blue, or off, so if you're going for any of those colors for a theme, its perfect.

Cons: None so far. I'm looking to do SLI for a GTX 660 Ti OC and the way this PSU is handling, I don't think it will break a sweat.

Other Thoughts: Its a very clean PSU, and a great purchase, especially if you're building a brand new machine due to how easy everything comes packaged, and how much care is put into it.

Pros: The led colors are cool, it's quiet, nice cable management somewhat. DOes what its suppose to do and looks cool doing it.

Cons: The CPU1 cable is way to short, I was able to manage all the other cables and had to fight te cpu1 cable, if it were only a few inches longer, now I have it right accross my motherboard, it'd have become invisible in my 912 haf case. The semi modular is slightly annoying aswell, they could of put an led light around the pre-connected cords.
