CORSAIR Gaming Series GS800 800W ATX12V v2.3 SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC High Performance Power Supply

Pros: This PSU is so quiet that I have to double check to make sure that it's on. The LEDs aren't too bright. They provide a delicate glow, and the color is selectable between red, white, and blue (you can also turn them off! +!). There are 4 6/8 pin PCI-E outlets, one 8-pin CPU that you can split into 4-pin, and a ton of molex sata plugs. Everything is sheathed so it looks somewhat contained. The logo on the side of the unit is a nice touch.

Cons: WIRES! I knew this wasn't a modular PSU, but good lord what am I going to do with these wires? They're very thick and there are TONS of them everywhere. If you have a mid-sized case, you will have to be very creative in stashing them away. Even with all of the extras bundled with zip ties, I still have a problem getting them all to fit without hitting any fans.

Overall Review: I'm not deducting a point over the wires, because I knew what I was getting into, but it's still pretty difficult to deal with. As far as performance goes, this is powering 2 ATI 6950 cards as well as 7 case fans and a 6 core cpu, and it's doing just fine. I bought this because it was listed as one of the few reasonably priced PSUs that can power my video cards without problems, and it certainly hasn't let me down.

Pros: None

Cons: Item was totally dead out of the box. Pluged into ac with no load it wouldn't even power up. Hopefully the replacement will be better.

Overall Review: I've had two previous Corsair power supplies without so much as a single problem. I was totally surprised to find this one totally dead in the water. No lights, no fan, no power, no noise, no nothin. Certainly put a delay in my build.

Pros: Yuo'll have wires for anything you can possibly power with a 800 watt psu. The LED fan is wonderful looking and it's as silent as a dead mouse.

Cons: The only problem I have with it are the silly molex connectors. They take an amazing force to plug into any female molex connector. Idk maybe I'm doing something wrong. But when I was mic chatting with my friends while I was plugging them in my friends were asking what was going on, proly sounded like I was going into labor. They will go in it's just hard.

Overall Review: Over all I really like the quality this thing is extremely solid and Really really looks nice. If it weren't for the impossible molex connectors I would urge anyone to buy this. And who knows maybe it's just my case fans molex that were giving the trouble.

Pros: Lots of connections blue LED super quiet! crossfire or sli and its Corsair

Cons: not modular but knew that when I bought it

Overall Review: For some reason I love this psu!!! Got with a promo code luckily because it is a little expensive but the quality and performance is amazing! My build: i5 3570k biostar tz77xe4 Corsair vengance 8gb crucial m4 WDblue 500gb corsair gs800 hd 6950 Nzxt phantom 410

Pros: I've had this PSU running non-stop for a week now and no issues whatsoever. Plenty of power for my needs and I don't see any crossfiring in my future so this should serve me for quite some time. I've checked it a few times and it never really gets above 32C (if that's even it's fault, I have a GPU fan bearing down right into the PSU intake fan). I didn't want to switch orientation just cause I wanted the light in the case ;)

Cons: Tip for Corsair: Make the 8-Pin CPU cable a little longer, I didn't have enough cord to run it through the cable-management system behind the motherboard so it's just running along the edge. Other than that, great product!

Overall Review: CASE: Rosewill Blackhawk Mid-Tower w/ 8 internal fans PSU: Corsair Gaming Series 800W CPU: i7-3770K Ivy @3.9GHz MB: Asus P8Z77-V Deluxe RAM: 16GB G.Skill Ripjaw (2x8GB) @1600MHz GPU: XFX Radeon HD 6950 2GB CPU-C:Zalman 92mm CPU Cooler SSD: HyperX 120GB (Win7 Ultimate) HDD: WD 1TB @7200RPM 6GB/s CDD: Asus Internal Blu-ray Drive

Pros: I previously owned a GS600 which was great so I thought Corsair was a trustworthy company.

Cons: This is NOT the GS600. I have a Corsair 650d, which is another story but another reason I'll NEVER buy Corsair again, which is notoriously loud with it's DEFECTIVE front fan and the PSU is audible over EVERYTHING. It's like a fan hum with a electric buzz that pulsates and it's REALLY annoying and non-stop. So now I have to undue my new build because of this one defectively loud PSU? I don't WANT to RMA I just want this product that I spent good money on to work. Thanks a LOT Corsair, you just lost a customer for life.

Overall Review: I have purchased the Corsair 650d case, the GS600 psu and the GS800 psu over the past year. Only the GS600 has performed up to expectations. I have given over $500 to this company over the past year and I do NOT feel this money was well spent. Knowing what I know now I would NEVER have purchased anything from Corsair and I never will again. I can hear it as I write this and it makes me angry, resentful and regretful. Don't let this happen to you, don't buy this product.

Pros: Runs i7-3770k OC@4.6GHz and 1.330V and gtx 680 with plenty of power to spare if I ever want to add another gtx 680. The LED's look pretty nice

Cons: Not rated at 80 plus gold

Pros: Installs easily, works fine, has a fancy LED light in the back in three different colours. Automatic dual voltage, if you ever plan on moving out of North America with it.

Cons: The fan is the noisiest part of my system. It's still fairly quiet, but couldn't they make it as quiet as the case fans?

Overall Review: It has lots of cables, which was a minor pain. Not a con, because I knew it wasn't modular, and after all it was a one-time hassle.
