Cooler Master box artwork is quite attractive, and always in full colour.
The rear of the box contains some technical information on the unit, useful if browsing in a store.
The box packaging isn't the best. The power supply is just wrapped in a plastic bag and is protected inside an egg shell style cover.
A user manual, regional specific power cable and mounting screws round out the accessories.
The picture above left is the modular cabling supplied. Picture above right are the hardwired cables that exit the chassis. A little disappointing to see that the modular cables are all the flat ‘ribbon' style, but the hardwired cables are all more traditional ‘sleeved' – these are more difficult to route. Ideally I would have liked to see more modular cables, and less hardwired cables.
| Cable | Connectors |
| MB 20+4 pin | x1 (570mm) |
| CPU 4+4 pin | x1 (630mm) |
| PCI E 8 pin (6 pin +2) | x4 (530 mm + 120 mm) |
| SATA | x8 (400mm + 150 mm) |
| SATA | x2 (530mm + 150mm) |
| MOLEX | x3 (400 mm + 150mm) |
| MOLEX & FDD | x3 / x1 (400 mm + 150mm) |
The supply is equipped with 4 x PCI e connectors to power two graphics cards. The relatively modest length of the ATX and EPS cables might prove problematic with the largest tower cases on the market in 2014.
