Question 1

Is there a cpu connector?

Accepted Answer

Hi

YES ..

I installed this in a machine with 2 hard drives .. 2 DVD drives and several extra case fans .. Plus another device .. It has more than enough cables included to handle all devices .. It has been proven to be very reliable and I do recommend this power supply ..

Question 2

I would like to know if this is a quiet PSU? For my use it probably won't get much past 50% load, so it won't get stressed to much. Need it for my wife's machine.

Accepted Answer

In my opinion, yes. But what is loud for you may be different.  My other fans drown it out, but I've had it on with nothing else and found it negligible.

Question 3

This power supply can handle a EVGA GEFORCE GTX 760 ?

Accepted Answer

Easily. I've seen people say they've ran that card with 450 watts no problem, so you won't even stress this guy. It also has the the PCI 6+2 plug you'll need, so everything should be golden.

Question 4

Looking at all the specs I'm getting confused somewhere. Is this compatible with Intel Core i5-4670 Haswell 3.4GHz LGA 1150 84W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics BX80646I54670?  And it will work a 24pin power and 8pin CPU power motherboard?

Accepted Answer

Yes. This unit has a 20+4 pin connector and a 4+4 cpu pin connector. And should be compatible with your processor.

Question 5

Is this PSU as reliable as Corsair PSU's and other brands?
Any 80 certification on this?

Accepted Answer

So far I have had no reliability issues, the only thing I had issue with was an over current trying to power a high end video card, I had plugged in both Ports of the dedicated pcix into the card and had crashing issues, splitting the load between the dedicated pcix power Ports and one of the peripheral power Ports through an adapter solved the issue. I have never used this brand in the past  so I can not say for long term reliability

Question 6

Is this a bottom mount power supply?  Thanks.

Accepted Answer

Didn't realize there was a difference , all I can say is I have it top mounted. No problems

Question 7

i need a power supply to have enough power for my new gpu. i need to plug it in to a 4 pin molex. is this the product i need?

Accepted Answer

really as long as you don't have any Overclocked parts or a water cooler then you don't need a whole a lot of power. My computers i build are only 500 - 630 watts and one has a H100i and 630 watts is all it needs might even be too much with computers these days they make them to be cool, power efficient, and quiet. To be on the safe side look at your power requirements for your computer parts.

Question 8

Would this be a compatible for a ASUS P4S800D-X - Mainboard - ATX - SiS655FX chipset - Socket 478 - UDMA133, SATA (RAID)
In a RAIDMAX Cobra computer tower replacing a RAIDMAX RX - 420K (KY-520ATX) ATX 12V Power Supply?

Accepted Answer

Larry; This power supply has the 20+4 power pin configuration, which means it has 20 power pins connected together, and a separate 4 pin detachable group.

The Asus P4S800 requires that very type of configuration. 20 pins on the main connector and a secondary 4 pin plug.

This RAIDMAX would work just fine for that motherboard.

As for the replacing your current PS; typically power supplies are universal, with the exception of a handful of case models, and those typically will tell you so.

Question 9

i am getting a full tower with 1x 140mm front blue LED fan, 1x 220mm side blue LED fan, 1x 120mm rear blue LED fan and 2x 120mm top blue LED fans will their be enough cables to connect all these?

Accepted Answer

The fan power connectors are on the motherboard.  If you exceed the number of connectors provided on the motherboard (which varies mostly on the quality of the motherboard) then there are adapters available to convert the 4 pin Molex connector for a fan but this is usually not needed.  The RAIDMAX supply includes a cable with three of the Molex connectors.

Question 10

Does this include connectors for additional computer case fans?

Accepted Answer

It comes with two modular cables, each with 3 molex fan connectors attached. If memory serves me, it also comes with molex/sata adapter for a single connection. I have 4 large fans in my case, each quite a distance from each other. Sadly, I would have been unable to connect all 4 had my case not provided a convenient all-in-one molex power connection. However, I have a full tower case. You could easily hook up your front, top,  and side fans with the two cords provided, and all fans in any smaller cases.

Hope that helps!!! :)
