Back in my day, we didn't need no fancy connector! 12v was 12v! Even in the snow! And we liked it that way!

Honestly how are the RMx supplies these days, quality wise? They're probably the only Corsair PSU I don't know off hand.

Depending on the PSU bay on modern cases, it can be a real pain to plug in extra connectors after install. I think this might start a new trend and it's a great idea.

From the Reviews I have read they seem to be one of the top PSU's, though these aren't JonnyGuru reviews soooo. I'm still running an RM850 from 2014 plus I've mined on it 24/7 for nearly 2 years straight. Still going strong and relatively quiet.

I wholeheartedly agree. There are a few cases out there where the PSU mounts to a plate and then slides in from the rear. That could be a problem, but for 90+% of ATX towers, this should be a great innovation.

...that's why I always added an extra peripherals plug or PCIe plug when installing it. If I get more peripherals or a more powerful GPU, the cords are already there. This thwarts planning ahead, lol.

This kinda defeats the purpose of modularity, no? LMAO

, indeed. But, it's hidden in a box (where the PSU hides) in the first place... so it's more like if a tree falls in the forest and nobody is there to hear it... does it make a sound? Here though, if the cord is hidden, is really bothersome?

...but that's better than not being modular at all.
