Pros: - 90 degree angle at the psu connection allows your computer to be pushed closer against a wall since this AC power cable only sticks out about 1 inch when installed - just makes things look cleaner - good enough length - seems to be of decent quality

Cons: - can restrict clearance for cables that hook into the top end of the motherboards I/O section, but its not so restricting that it cant be done. - 90 degree angle doesnt pivot so power supplies with a horizontal AC connection will have the power cable directed to the side instead of down. - would be nice if the cable was a little less rigid

Overall Review: The only way this wouldnt be a nice cheap upgrade is if your power supply AC connection was horizontal instead of vertical because it would direct the cable to the side instead of down. My old power supply was horizontal but my new one is vertical. By horizontal I mean the large middle prong on the power supplies AC connection is either on the top or bottom, and vertical is were the large middle prong is to the left or right. To have this cable directed down you need to have a power supply were the middle prong is to the right. The cable clearance that some people may have is minor because the cable does have enough flexibility down the cord.
