Super Flower artwork is rather bland, yet also very distinctive. I was expecting to see a picture of 8 Pack biting the heads off some bats – Ozzy Osbourne style, but instead we get a pretty little butterfly. Maybe we can fry it with 2000 watts later and garnish in a salad.
The rear of the box is populated with technical data including the mention of 105c Japanese grade Nippon Chemi Con capacitors. Loverly.
Sadly I am not as strong as 8 Pack, so lifting the box onto the table hurt my back a little bit. I blame old age. The power supply is protected on one side between thick blocks of foam. The modular cables and accessories are stored at the side.
The power supply itself is protected inside a soft felt bag, and then packaged inside two thick pieces of foam. Unless the courier decides to play football with the box in the warehouse, we can't see any way this could be damaged in transit.
Super Flower supply a little multi language user manual, heavy duty power cable (to handle the insane power delivery), mounting screws and a storage pouch for any left over cables.
Would you like a cable with that sir? The image above right shows all the PCIe power cables for powering some seriously hardcore multi GPU configurations. The main power cables are all sleeved. Peripheral power cables are the thinner ‘ribbon' style to help with routing. These are quality 18 AWG grade.
Cables | Description | Cable Length |
One Cable | 20+4pins motherboard power connector | 600mm |
Two Cables | 8 pins (4+4 pins) EPS/ATX 12V connector | 700mm |
Four Cables | 8 pins (6+2 pins) PCI Express connector | 700mm |
Five Cables | 6pins + 8 (6+2 pins) PCI Express connectors | 600mm |
Four Cables | 4x SATA peripheral connector | 600mm |
One Cable | 3×4 pins Molex peripheral connector | 550mm+100mm |
One Cable | 2x SATA + 2 x 4 pins Molex peripheral connector | 550mm+100mm |
Two Cables | 4 Pin Peripheral to 4 pin Floppy Adapter | 100mm |
Plenty of cables for the most demanding SLI and Crossfire systems and we like to see the EPS/ATX 12V connectors measuring 700mm – to accommodate the tallest chassis on the market today.
9 x 8 pin pcie slots….for what 😛 ? Quad sli-ing 980 gtxs 😀
or 4x r9 290x!s
Probably one of the first PSUs that looks impressive on the inside. Damn that’s nicely built.
Hahaha, he’s flexing so much in that photo 😀 showoff
theirs no such thing as quad sli 980!!
yes there is. the the 970 on the other hand can’t be in quad SLI.
why cant i find it to buy ?
For gaming it is overkill, however for a GPU rack it is *nearly perfect. Step forward the Supermicro X9DRX+-F mobo which has ten x8 PICE slots. Just think about the TDP requirements of a GPU rack with ten 1080Tis, dual Xeons, the mobo itself, plus fans etc?! I look forward to the 2,500 version of this PSU..
