The Antec High Current Pro Platinum 850W PSU ships in a heavy box highlighting most of the key selling points. This is a good box design for a retail store environment.
Inside, the power supply and cables are protected between large slabs of foam. The modular cables ship in their own pouch, next to the power supply which is covered in a soft felt bag. This is to protect the paintwork against minor markings during rough transit.
In the box is a user manual and other literature, mounting screws, and some cable ties.
The modular cables and power connector are in a felt bag (top left). The Antec High Current Pro Platinum 850W ships in a larger felt covering.
The quality of the cabling is very high, although they are very rigid and can take a little effort to bend when you are routing them in a new build. Antec have attached labels to some of the cabling to help more inexperienced users during the system build.
