Damn!! I was designing something just like that for my Big Box project! with the exception of the fan on top, it was almost the same thing, mesh and all...

the only real difference between theirs and mine is Mine will be able to power up to 4 motherboards independently. (4 PSUs inside)

a wee bit of power bristling there eh? what are you planning on powering? the second sun?

That's pretty sweet, the rails don't look horribly weak either.

Nah... just 30 motherboards...eventually...

but I like their design (http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=3443&zenid=bd74fcae6c14488b1eaed1a212c29ef6), modular looking, would keep things cleaner inside.

the black one is even sexier imo. and yes that is the best damn modual design i have ever seen, and none of that pull, and take the plug out on accident BS. other companies need to start using this design, like OCZ and PCP&C, and then we will be set

my PCP&C is modular, but with a aftermarket mod by performance-pcs, its great and all, but it still seems a bit messy

wonder what larva and Oklahoma think of this. And I wonder if that decible rating is accurate.

yeah lets wait for them and what they think, and then we will see who hops on it, well if it is good ;)

thats what i was thinking its got a 120mm fan and a 80mm fan and its at 14dB. i wonder how that was tested.

maybe while it was off?

hmmm, except for the odd db rating, i agree with you 3dflyer, it looks damn solid, and the interiors seem beefy. i think it should be a sound PSU, if not a excellent one

The best part about this PSU is that sweet case that it comes in.

I dont really like the modular look of those cables as they stick way to far out for my tastes. Also in a lot of cases those cables would start pushing up against the optical drives.

Wow! That is a very cool looking PSU. Very clean.

They need to sell different length cables instead of included ones so you can get just what you need.
