Pros: Nice PSU, mostly all modular besides the 3 cables pretty much everyone has to use(CPU, Mobo, and PCIE). Very high rated fan in it and is quiet. Also rated to sustain 750w and not peak to it. Also has 1 12v rail and not 2-3 like cheaper ones.
Cons: None other then I probably should have got the 850, but didn't to stop myself from doing SLI in the future when I don't need it. ;)
Overall Review: Well packaged, they also have a nice replacement plan called <3 where they pay for shipping both ways. This PSU has the same guts at the Corsair ones as both of them and OCZ OEM from Seasonic.
Seems like a reliable PSU but noise..11/4/2012 6:35:38 PM
Pros: Does what it's supposed to and fairly quiet while idle..
Cons: While under load its another story, it's too loud with a hum. An i7 920, Sapphire 6950, and 3 HDs really shouldn't have been pushing it. It's a little unbearable for me, I will most likely be returning it.

Solid PSU, NZXT deserve more!6/27/2012 9:03:14 PM
Pros: There really isn't anything that I can't say that is already the obvious.
Cons: The Power Cord that came with mine didn't seem to work right, but I have a ton on hand so no biggie for me.
Won't remove an egg, it's not affecting the PSU in anyway.
Overall Review: I decided to go with NZXT at the last minute.
Corsair, Antec and Seasonic are all highly respected, however I wanted to buy from a company that doesn't have much recognition but makes very solid products.
SilverStone was sold out or I probably would have bought them.
I'm very happy I decided to support NZXT, they really deserve a bigger fan base. The quality of this PSU is very high and for the price you can't beat it. You literally get everything that the other companies give but at a lower cost and there is so far ZERO sacrifice.
I really hope NZXT gets the reputation they deserve, however I don't feel they will with big leaders currently dominating.
Pros: - As far as I can tell, it delivers solid power to my components. I have not had any power problems with my build.
- Fairly quiet and efficient.
Cons: - This PSU is only semi-modular. This is mostly fine because the cables that are attached to the power supply are the ones that you'll be using anyways (Mobo, CPU, and PCIe connectors). However, there is a second PCIe cable that comes attached. I guess they assume that since you're getting a 850 watt PSU that you'll have a 2nd video card. A second video card is indeed in my plans for my computer, but right now I only have one so I have an extra PCIe cable lying around my case.
Overall Review: I've had this PSU for several weeks now and it has given me no problems. It is currently powering the following:
- Asus P8Z68 Pro/Gen3 Mobo
- i7 2600k (has been overclocked up to 4.7 Ghz so far)
- MSI Radeon HD 7970 with the stock cooler (has been overclocked to the max every once in a while)
- Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo (with the included fan)
- 2 notebook hard drives
- 1 SSD
- Stock case fans / fan controller for an NZXT Phantom
I plan to add some more components soon, including a second video card, more drives and fans. I'll post a second review about how this PSU fares. I expect it to do just fine.
Cons: Just started my build today and this power supply is a brick. I would comment on newegg's rma process but I waited to long to start building and now I'll have to deal with NZXT.

Cons: About 4 Weeks ago, the PSU started making a clicking sounds (very very soft) Turns out its not the fan, sounds like it is coming from inside the PSU itself. Not sure what to do since im past my 30 days with NewEgg. I wonder if I should even bother, still works fine, just has that clicking noise.
