Question 1

Are the cables lengthy? I have a bottom-mounted PSU and am just a little worried that the CPU power or motherboard power connector won't reach.

Accepted Answer

I too have a lower location mounted PSU.  The cables' lengths provide more than enough reach.  My previous PSU also modular cable design, but the reason I switched to this model PSU is because my old PSU would quit when the going got tough.  After using this PSU for a solid three-months, this has been an excellent experience and the cables are more than lengthy enough with the full-tower case I am using.

Hope this helps

Question 2

7.1 " is with handler or without handle??

Accepted Answer

Yes it does have a handle, as it shows in a picture. Not much use tho if the entire power supply is bolted to case. 
It easier to take out of the case once the bolts are out, grab and pull.

Question 3

Could you Sli two GTX 770s on this? considering the amps is it all right?

Accepted Answer

I wouldn't risk it -- those GPUs are rated for a 600W PSU.  Better to go with 1000W.  (For the record, the card itself doesn't use 600W, they guesstimate the total energy draw of a typical build for a single-use of that particular card.)

I do, however, highly recommend the EVGA Supernova series PSU.  Very happy with the one I just put into the hubby's new machine.

Question 4

I got a brief +5V warning or something from my motherboard after playing a game on high settings.

Was using both 6-pin plugs to power a GTX 670 a mistake?

Accepted Answer

No it wasn't a mistake, you want to have as many pins in as the card can take. I currenty use a 7870 myst edition from powercolor which is the equivelent of a 660 ti. My card also uses 2x 6-pin connectors as well. You should do more testing if your having problems and also call up evga they have good customer support from what I hear. Hope this helps.

Question 5

Has evga fixed the power supply problem with gigabyte and other brand motherboards?

Accepted Answer

So far I have had no problems with my power supply. I have an ASRock motherboard and it works just fine for me. It's fully modular which made the cable management a lot easier, and don't have to worry about it breaking down because there is a 10 year warranty with it. I'm not sure if this quite answered your question but you can't go wrong with this PSU.

Question 6

Will this work with a Asus Crosshair V Formula-Z Motherboard?

Accepted Answer

im not sure i had to return it cause it didnt have enough pins for my CPU so sorry i can answer that question

Question 7

can I sli two gtx 650 ti boost sc cards from evga while ring core i7 3770k msi mpower mobo corsair h80 liquid cooler 16gb of ddr3 ram 1 ssd and  7 fans?

Accepted Answer

Hi, It will be good if you use Power Supply Calculator. You can google it or Newegg also have their own. The link: http://images10.newegg.com/BizIntell/tool/psucalc/index.html Also a suggestion use Asus MB rather than MSI. Hope It hepled

Question 8

Can this power supply be used for a home server build - Does it have 24/7 capability?

Accepted Answer

I was using this PS in a scrypt mining rig and ran it a month straight 24/7 without any issues. I would think it would be great for a server as long as you keep power draw under the PS limits.

Question 9

is this an active PFC power supply?  if so, do I need to u
 a pure sin wave UPS

Accepted Answer

This power supply has active PFC, as can be noted from the item description in your question!  There is not a special UPS requirement to use this power supply.  I have used a couple of them in builds I have done.

Question 10

Will this PSU automatically switch to the correct voltage were I to use it in Europe with the correct power cord?

Accepted Answer

it should as it is rated for 100-240VAC, but i would contact the manufacturer website (EVGA) for more info on that
