Very solid unit!

Efficient, quiet, powerful (34 amps on the 12V rail---408 watts divided by 12 volts for those who don't understand the math), solid rails at all loads, durable, Seasonic quality.

Only two SATA power leads. No sleeves.

I got this on sale for 7 Jeffersons from NewEgg--thanks guys, what a steal, I feel kinda dirty! Most "2-rail" power supplies are really a single 12V source with 2 sets of leads, which is a good thing because many higher end cards demand high 12V rail amperage. Google for reviews of the @ntec ea500, which is identical (earthpower series is made by seasonic), for all the postive and detailed reviews. This power supply will comfortably run ANY single card and most sli/crossfire rigs. It does have 2 pci-6 plugs, btw.

failed within 3 days

Rated for 500W and it worked for a while.

Failed within 3 days.

Not a product I would recommend. I assume Seasonic makes some good products but this is NOT one of them.
