    Good Review! I did not expect a Rosewill product to as well as it did. Like the review said it should have had 2 more pci-e power cables available. Still way to go Newegg oops I mean Rosewill.

    Yep, to be honest I wasn't expecting much from the PSU as well, but I was surprised how well it did. It is not cheap though!

    I've heard that Super Flower has the same internals for one of their PSUs, though I don't know either which manufacturer makes it for them as well.
