The power supply is quiet and installed easily. There are plenty of connectors, including old style molex, and they are wrapped up in velcro. Connection names are clear on the cables - not so much on the power supply (Grey on Black).
I did have one major issue though EVGA and Corsair (and probably other manufacturers I've not used) have Modular Power Supplies with cables that are physically compatible, but NOT electrically compatible. i.e. You can plug in an EVGA cable to a Corsair power supply (as I did because I didn't have a molex cable for my old Corsair), but the system will not boot. Anecdotally (see google) you may be unlucky and fry things. So this "review" is mainly a public-service-announcement for anyone who has more than one vendor's power supplies.
As to why with all the keying possibilities Vendors can not be either physically incompatible or use a common standard - you'd have to ask them.
