For
a power supply using 80mm fans I kind of expected to see
the heat sinks a little larger than they are. With the rear
fan blowing laterally along the heat sinks and the bottom
fan able to directly cool the heat producing components
perhaps larger sinks just weren't necessary.

Those
heat sinks aren't the prettiest you'll ever see, and while
they do kind of detract from the sense of quality I think
it's fair to remember that most people will see nothing
more than a fleeting glance of them through the case or
fan blades. It's far more important that they work well
than look good. The use of gold sinks with a black PCB does
make me wonder is there was some styling input went into
the design phase but it seems unlikely somehow.

Component
layout is generally quite neat and tidy with steel posts
used to elevate some components and a fuse that you can
almost get to.

By
far my biggest concern with this power supply is the fact
that the PCB which feeds the external 4-pin connectors is
fed by a single set of wires. Load up the first set of connectors
with high draw devices and you have to question how much
clean power will be available to the last device on the
last connector. Some power supply manufactures question
the idea of having three or more Molexes on a single line,
but with a two-connector cable plugged into each of the
rear connectors you basically have up to ten devices on
a single line plus the 4-pin auxiliary feed and SATA power
feeds too possibly. I'm no electronics guru but this surely
can't be an efficient way to distribute power, even though
it does considerably de-clutter the internal wiring.
