XFX XTR Series P1-650B-BEFX 650 W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Full Modular Active PFC With Full Modular Cables

Pros: Great aesthetics, nice packaging. All cables have black mesh braiding around them. There's a switch to enable/disable hybrid mode which keeps the fan off at < 20% load. I just bought a Gigabyte GA-X79-UD7 mb and it has 2 x 8-pin connectors for power and this psu has two slots to plug in an 8-pin cable. However, one of those slots is a 2 x 8-pin pcie plug, so if you want quad-sli/crossfire and own this mb, um, you'll only be able to give your mb 1 x 8-pin power? Pretty sure that would be just fine though. Lots and lots of cables, probably more than any desktop user would need. 11 sata power connectors, 9 molex, a molex to 4-pin fan PWM converter, 2 x 8-pin atx and 8 x 8-pin pcie. I might be forgetting something else, but whatever, look it up. Big solid power rocker on the back.

Cons: If you're putting this on the bottom of your case and you want to suck air up through the bottom opening, you'll have to flip the psu over so the 'xfx' on the back is upside down. I'm fairly ocd about stuff like this but this doesn't bother me.

Overall Review: Bought from a site that shares a name with a jungle in south america for a little cheaper.

Pros: 135mm fluid dynamic bearing fan Full modular 80+ Gold Haswell certified 5yr warranty Flat cables

Cons: None

Overall Review: I decided on this PSU over others in its price range because of the larger than standard fan using a fluid dynamic bearing instead of ball bearings, and the quality of the unit. The full-modular design is kind of pointless, as there certain cables you will always use. The cables are easy to tuck behind the motherboard tray though because they're flat. I haven't tested the hybrid fan mode yet, but it seems like a neat feature if you're concerned about having a quiet computer. The build quality feels great and the unit even looks nice in the case. All XFX power supplies are made by a single high-quality manufacturer that I normally buy directly from, but this one was a better buy for a couple of reasons so I thought I'd try it out. I wasn't disappointed.

Pros: This is a rebranded Seasonic. It's got an extremely consistent output, fully modular, 5 year warranty and is Gold rated. All black flexible ribbon cables.

Cons: Just wish XFX would sell an extra set of modular cables as most of the cables are at least 6 inches too long for my mid-size ATX case. I would love to purchase another set and cut, crimp, and sleeve these cables for a perfect fit. The GPU cables are all 6+2 pin and have 2 plugs per cable. I understand that this PSU is rated for and can accommodate Multi-GPU setups but if you are only running a single card like me, you'll have an extra plug hanging inside your case. With my GFX card (EVGA nvidia 780 reference with ACX cooler) the extra plug on the cable points directly to one of the fans on the card, so I had to bend the cable to point straight down.

Pros: this is a great unit with really good features. Like the hybrid fan mode. looks great also. came with alot of cables.nice thick power cord.

Cons: the only thing is when your plugging in cables to the back. it seem a little flimsy to me. just be careful and dont use a ton of force. not worth taking an egg

Overall Review: If you slow this PSU down, then you may need to get a house generator lol

Pros: Fully Modular so pretty easy to do good cable management. 80+ Gold. Cheap Comparatively.

Cons: The Wires are fairly stiff and hard to work with but they do work just takes sometime to figure out where to put them and how to put them correctly.

Pros: - Fully Modular - Excellent packing + modular cables. - Extremely Quiet and the hybrid mode is a wonderful touch. - Stable voltages and actually has held a higher overclock than my former Corsair unit. - Detailed information about the voltages and pin outs which would be useful for sleeved cables.

Cons: - Documentation could stand to be improved. Maybe it's me not wanting to admit that I didn't quite now how to handle the 24 pin cable and once I figured it out it made 'sense' but clarification would have been appreciated. - Cables are quite stiff and I found bending some of them to be a little annoying but once I took my time to figure out how they bend best it was not really an issue.

Overall Review: This is my first XFX product and I am quite pleased. HardOCP has always rated their power supplies quite high and I trust their judgement. This PSU has been able to run my 4670k overclocked higher and with less voltage than before with the previous Corsair power supply I had. Well done, XFX.

Pros: The modular unit was easy to install and only used the wires needed. Have had no problem with this P.S. Just bought another. I have used it on a high end gaming unit and am building another.

Cons: None

Pros: used for 3 months now in a 600w rig (after overclocking etc) great psu, runs very cool even when my entire system is under load.

Cons: 8 pin supplemental cable is too short to route behind the motherboard tray (just like the EVGA psu before it) only too short by an inch or 2 (just like the EVGA) i have a fairly common sized mid tower case and this trend of supplemental 8 pin cables being too short is getting on my nerves.

Overall Review: sold on of my gfx cards so now it just has one gonna keep this psu for my upcoming build and put the old one back in and sell to a friend, he's not getting this psu it's nice! but i'll also need a cable extension for the supplimental 8 pin as i'm building a full tower next so it will be a must.
