The BitFenix Fury 650G power supply arrives in a brightly coloured box with blue accents.
The packaging is very good, and the power supply itself is completely protected inside walls of thick foam on all sides. One section of the box houses the modular cabling.
The bundle includes a regional specific power cable, mounting screws and a user manual.
Bitfenix have individually sleeved the cables with their trademarked ‘NanoSleeve' braiding. They say ‘With an ultra-dense weave and superb flexibility, the Nanosleeve braiding found on our Alchemy cable extensions is the premier choice of the world's top modders. The cable that comes with the Fury are pre-sleeved with this exact sleeving, no more voiding your warranty and spending hours sleeving cables yourself. With Fury, you get that premium modded look straight out of the box.'
Marketing names aside, these will be popular among the enthusiast audience, as they really do look great, and will save many people having to mod their power supply later. Opting for plain black will ensure these cables suit any system.

The main ATX cable is the only one hardwired into the chassis, which makes sense as you will always need it. All the other cables are modular. Bitfenix deserve a little credit for ensuring the cables are not only individually sleeved, but more than long enough, even for the largest cases you can buy today. The cables are standard 18AWG, which is correct according to industry ATX specifications.
There are four PCI-e cables included to suit a basic SLi and Crossfire configuration.
I wonder if they will be reliable? I guess only time will tell. Those individually sleeved cables do look tempting!
Why buy this when the Seasonic 660W Fully Modular 80+ Platinum is available for £3 more? No brainer there.
I bought the 550W model 4 weeks ago purely for the cables. I would of wanted the Corsair but the added costs of the braided cables is too much. I know it’s pricey and better options for the money, but the cables sold it for me. After building my ITX PC, I’m glad I went for this unit as the cables helped a lot and make the build look professional.
yea, especially being that this is based on fsp aurum. that mediocre at very best platform needs to die already.
