I just wanna take a moment to thank you for going out and purchasing components yourself that your viewers ask about, instead of waiting or hoping the product will get shipped to you for review. Your wisdom and knowledge is worth so much, and because of that I may look into this PSU in the future for future proofing my shiny new build I just done.
Calm down.
He's a millionaire. Buying 1 PSU literally means nothing.
I agree, and his Ifixit commercials are the best that I have seen
@@ConeJellos gotta ask, what part of his comment wasn't already calm?
@Feyd I think he is just misinterpreting what I am saying, as if I may be worhsipping Jay. I view Jay as the go to man for the average tech/computer guy. The way he views things from the perspective of an enthusiast while also giving his views on the perspective of the average Joe is what I consider to be extremely valuable for the average tech guy. Meanwhile, LTT is fantastic to go to for a general overview and GN is the go to for down and dirty in the meat of the hardware.
As for the Jay is a millionaire guy, I don't think he understands what I mean. Most creators ignore a lot of viewer requests and only address things that are sent to them to review, promote, or just keep. Jay went out of his way to purchase a PSU he may not need or even use at the moment simply to give his opinion, thoughts, possible problems he seen, and looked at the PSU from different angles and use cases. That is what I like about Jay.
Everyone has their own opinions, I just thought they I worded my comment relayed my thoughts in the most efficient manner on how I view Jay and I wanted to give him my thanks for the effort he puts into his channel.
Jay,
I watched this, immediately went on Amazon and got the 1000W overnighted, and just now installed it with zero issues. Cable management in my 4000D case is now perfect. My new 4070 Ti now has the correct native connector, and I don't care about the slightly different sleeving. THANKS for your timely publishing of this video! I had been planning on increasing my 750W PSU already, so now all is good.
Watch every one of your videos.
Cheers!
This PSU is specifically designed for the 4000d and 5000d variants so it makes sense why it worked well for you
Worked out grea for my Asus TUF GT502 ❤ 😊
same here, was on the edge but after watching the video, I ordered it. thanks for making the video!
this PSU would actually work great with a lian li o11 Dynamic EVO since the PSU is flipped on its side where the fan will be facing the side panel like its positioned on the table at 5:45
if you not use the HDD cage, you would have WAY more space than you will need for the extra cables.
Absolutely. Without the HDD cage, there would be plenty of room for the PSU cables. However, the downside would be that they are less hidden in that configuration.
I build a pc in the O11D Evo White this weekend. If I didn't already have a PSU (and these came in white) I would definitely pick this PSU for my case.
They used a case like that.
It is fantastic for cable managing, when I bought this power supply I did question myself if I made the right decision but after the cable management I'm thankful I did. Now it's just waiting on the custom cables to come out.
You mean like in 11:56?
I imagine when Cablemod makes custom cables for the Shift family of PSUs from Corsair, it's going to have pretty unique cable runs in certain cases. Possibly to the point of having to shorten one side of the cables in certain runs. With the number of O11 case builds, it's likely that they're going to have to think a little differently about that. Synergy gave Jay those special short run cables for his powerboard that had half one length and half slightly longer/shorter (depending on where you start) and if the cable runs are anywhere as short as that, it's gonna affect the cable flex.
Cablemod might make 90 degree angle custom cable plugs to make sideways runs easier.
@@KayDizzelVids
I was thinking about this while watching the video. It's a good concept and as Jay points out, I'm happy that companies are "innovating", even if it's something as "trivial" as moving the connectors from one side to another. A lot of case fitting issues would disappear if they had 90 degree cables instead of "regular" ones.
The end of cables for a modular power supply are unique for that PSU and are not standardized between different brands, and even different models from the same company. So I doubt Cablemod would do that considering it would at worse, be only for that PSU, and at best, be for a range of models from that same company. You could kill your PSU if you don't use a compatible cable with the PSU. It's why when ordering replacements, you need to specify the model and not just the brand.
I don't understand why you think that there would be an issue with Cablemod custom cables for the Shift (when released) when Cablemod have their 'Custom Cable Configurator' for buyers to select from for each cable that ranges from 150mm to 1000mm. This is on the buyer and not Cablemod to decide the cable lengths for their particular case. There's nothing to think about on Cablemod end! And also, it's "Singularitycases" who supplied the Powerboard and their own custom cables design. But why would you bring up Singularitycases custom cables when it's an minority small amount of PC builders that would be concerned about the cable flex of their 100mm 24pin/EPS cable?
@@disguiseddv8ant486 You're not reading. Short enough cable runs ruin the uniformity when they're bent, because there's not enough slack; an issue SINGULARITY RESOLVED, *IF* you bothered to watch Jay's video on his powerboard unboxing with the custom cable runs.
I just finished a build using exactly this power supply (1200x Shift) in a Corsair 5000D Airflow. As you mentioned, they're both Corsair products (part of why I chose them) and it worked flawlessly. I hooked it all up with a 7950x and a 4090 and it's been a dream to use.
On the Fractal Design Torrent I would have taken a strip of electrical tape, or heck even scotch, masking, or painters tape and wrapped the edge of that rail to eliminate any chance of a sharp edge.
Good idea!
Exactly what I was thinking!
I checked my fractal torrent and that rail is smooth as can be. Definitely needs no tape. That damage on his cable was probably factory damage.
Jay wanted to hate this so bad instead of just realizing it will work well in some cases and not well in others. Gotta have faith in people to be able to plan their build and recognize that this is just an option not being forced on anyone. It's nice to have options!
Other than the title it didn't really seem like he was trying to hate it, just bring awareness so that hopefully someone doing this the first time doesn't see it on sale and just click buy before looking more closely at what they're getting and if it'll work in their case.
@@TotalDbag24 I was partially joking of course, but throughout the video he talks about how he was expecting it to be bad or have a problem and how he thinks something won't work and then consistently proves himself wrong. It's no biggie, it's a fun vid, but also if he just realized this is a product for specific builds not all builds it makes perfect sense.
@@802Garage that was what i was thinking. different options that don't work on half the cases out there doesn't mean it's bad. i would love to use something that's different but fits my needs perfectly. the computer industry needs to diversify especially since we have a few companies making similar style cases. when it comes out and the company says "our new case" but someone else made one so similar months ago it gets boring.
Cause jay hates on everything. He’s the Karen of tech.
It should have an option for standard rear mounts as well. But then what happens if somebody tried to plug in two GPUs on the same rail. I also think 90° for both vertical and horizontal should be included to cut down on the cable poke shown in the video.
This PSU design is what i've been waiting for. I'm soooo tired of the plugs being at the back and not the side.
Perfect for those duel chamber cases where the PSU is turned on its side.
So many things about the PC haven't changed and it's becoming incredibly daunting. GPUs are now up to 6x their original size, the motherboards can't handle the weight of them as well as huge CPU coolers, it's just not working. There's a reason the PC was called a desktop, and keeping it vertical just doesn't cut it anymore. Also the cases are still very rudimentary and not user friendly at all, while missing out some basic common sense stuff, but of course what they're not missing is a ton of tempered glass and rgb :D
@@omnirhythm I mean PCs aren't a very good platform at all in the first place. If PCs really are so good, then why is there still no PC 2?
@@istachi Dangit. This is peak Vulkan logic whether I like it or not. I can not debunk your argument and will take my leave. And my PC 1.
@@omnirhythmtempered glass and rgb is so unnecessary 😂😂
The 1000w Shift is also limited to 450w on the 12WHPWR connector so for a 4090 you need the 1200W Shift. Unless Corsair sent us the wrong labels on the boxes (I work at a Micro Center)
This limitation seems like a way for power supply vendors to force people to buy more expensive units. Hopefully that won't be the case, but companies are greedy and like to artificially segment the market.
Do you happen yo know if the Corsair shift is being made by Seasonic? My main concern is reliability.
If I am not mistaken corsair uses the same 12vhpwr cable for all the (shift) psu's and have the sensepinses always set at 600W.
@@Mr._MN10 The 450W limit for 1000W PSUs or lower is part of the ATX 3.0 spec. That's what the 4 control pins on the 12VHPWR cable are for. Each represents 150W, so any cable can potentially carry 600W. The RM1000X Shift itself would only activate three of the four pins, which is how the graphics card knows it can draw a maximum 450W. This is why on the front of the RM1000X Shift box, top right, is an ATX 3.0 sticker that says "

Thanks Jay! I literally have this exact same PSU I'm getting ready to throw into a Fractal North w/ 4090 build. Its side connectors were really interesting to me for a normal lower chamber mid tower. Glad to see my purchase made sense!
I'm planning on getting the same case, PSU and Asus x Noctua RTX 4080 so I'd love to hear your opinion once you've finished building your PC.
Did this psu fit in the North case? Was there enough room on side to route cables?
Just an FYI, I have the RM1000x and it says on the box it is limited to 450watts. I have a 7000D case and yes, it was a breeze to cable manage being a Corsair product.
Used this in my new build with Lian Li 216, Aorus Master, 13900KS, Gigabyte 4090 Gaming OC. Thought I heard reasoning behind different connectors is Type 5 Corsair cabling so older types cannot be used. Worked great looks really good.
I did the same thing, except I paired it with a 5800x3d that I got covered under warranty from my last build getting water on it. Put the 1000 watt shift into the hyte y40 and it fits just fine, made cable management a breeze as well
Aaah darn I wanted to use this for 216 but wasn’t sure if the 216 had enough gap on the side. Happy to hear it worked out.
I am building q new system and have ordered the same case and PSU.
Thanks for the info! I can stop worrying now. :)
The shift and the lancool 3 fit together like a glove - the lancool 3's airflow panel basement showing your PSU cables can be off putting and the shift can take care of that for the most part :)
In principle, the Corsair Shift PSUs are a nice idea, but you will have to pay very close attention to whether they are suitable for the case you plan to use.
some other review said corsair actually made a list of alot of cases they tested the shift series with.
but i can't find it rn, only their info about the case having to have a standart atx layout, be at least 210mm wide and side access to the psu.
So it's like any other computer component. What an actualization.
Hence this video...
Hopefully over time this kind of configuration becomes more common and case manufacturer begins to follow suit, because conceptually it makes an awful lot more sense.
Maybe eventually it’ll make equally as much sense in practice
Not everyone uses hdd on top of psu in 011d evo. In that case shift is good.
Picked up this PSU last month to power a 4090 FE. I upgraded from a 3080 TI . Just waiting on Cablemod to drop their cables for this! Side note build is in 5000D.
This would be a situation where you'd want to base your build around the power supply.
I'm using this PSU in a 7000D Airflow with a 13700K and a 4090, and it was excellent to build with! Made cable management way less tangled and annoying.
Thanks for confirming, just ordered this PSU for my 7000D and was not quite sure if it would fit well after watching this video
It's all about options, the "out the back" cable layout even though it's (until now) the industry standard still doesn't work well on a lot of cases, so maybe having an option to have the cables on the side is actually a really good idea, maybe they'll also think about putting them on the other side too so that you can have the fan in the upright possition!
In a case like the Hyte Y60 the PSU mounts sideways so there would be plenty of room for the cables in a case like that. But on a standard case I can see where there might be some issues.
Worked great in a Lancool 216. Also great in an O11 Air Mini once I removed the drive cage (drilled the rivets).
I appreciate this comment. I was looking into this PSU with this case in mind so I'm glad it works great.
I honestly can see this becoming the norm for power supplies. Cases are just going to need to evolve for it too.
Based on just eyeballing it, I believe I can safely tell you it would work in a Lian Li Lancool 3. So, maybe all EATX capable cases? My old mid tower case would not be able to use this. I love this idea from a management viewpoint. But, you nailed it as being pretty case specific.
Heh..."case specific" could refer to both the computer case, and how niche the use case is for this style of PSU. I chuckled, well played.
It indeed does. And it works REALLY well. Recently upgraded my case to the Lancool 3 and PSU to this one and cable management is so easy.
So glad you did this video, because when I first saw the shift series, I thought that it would be mess depending on the case layout. Not to mention the heavy bends on the cables... Thank you for testing it and seeing where it fails so I wouldn't have to, LOL!
Try an older style budget case with no clearance on the left panel (looking from the back).
I just used this in my new 5000D, 13900K, 4090 build. I gotta say it felt like a winner to me. Jay is also correct that some sleeved cables would be nice.
I feel like this power supply would be ideal for a very skinny vertical case with mesh side panels so you could position it vertically and still get air flow with just enough bracket to hold it on the edges so the cables could go straight down or up. probably with some custom cables to handle the unique lengths.
My first thought is they need a RIGHT and a LEFT version of all of them. As you said about the cases being different... Thx for sharing
Good spot
Got one, the 1200w (1300?)... Actually love it. Made cable routing SO much better in my Fractal Meshify 2.
That was a fun and informative eval., Jay & team. I think your assessment was very fair. It's a great cable management option for creative building but, as discovered, it's not for every case. Also, kudos to Corsair for thinking outside the PSU box. Cable size may concern me but, benchmarks to be revealed, (smaller wires with higher thermal. Hey, It may be negligible). Thanks JTeam!
I used the 850w version in an NZXT H5 Flow and it worked well for cable management. I had to train the cables a bit so they didn't rub on the side panel but management was very clean. I hope you're right and motherboard manufacturers adopt the Type 5 size connectors on their end. The smaller connectors look much cleaner. Thanks for the review!
Wish you'd have shown how it would work with the hyte Y60 since that's becoming a popular build case now.
Changing all the cable ends that plug into the power supply to 90° plug, would help so much for cable management and fit for close cases to the plug side.
I'm actually using a thermal take core P8 case. The power supply mounts vertically with a fan facing the front glass... Side glass? Yeah something like that. Basically, when you're looking at the side of the case through the glass? You're looking at the fan from the power supply
If you're like me with an O11D Evo and don't use the drive cage, you can take it out and that gives you that entire upper section to cable manage the cables coming out of the unit. That is why I have been considering one of these new Corsair PSUs because my current unit has the standard "out the back" cabling, and it gets awfully tight with cable management. I mean it works and all, but you have to get a bit creative. So I do like this idea. Although, it would definitely be a case by case situation with it - as you demonstrated. Good to visualize how it fits in some cases though, especially mine. Appreciate it!
Just built one this week with the rm1200 shift and no drive cage and it worked a treat
Just put a 1000w shift in a lian li lancool 3. It was a tight fit with the side cables but it made plugging everything in super easy. Also lian li says in their subreddit that it isn't compatible but it definitely fits.
ok power supply is cool but I want to know more about the fan announcement...also the fake beep boop on the laptop-nice touch 😂
This actually would be tight if they did this with an SFX unit. Could help with a lot of cable management issues in ITX cases.
It would make it worst
That would be horrible in my phanteks shift XT. The cables would be blocking all the USB headers and the 24pin motherboard plug.
Lol SFX? Er - no. ITX cases are longer on the Z axis, not Y axis. They are longer on the Z axis for a reason, GPU size. It would make it not compatible or a living hell with a SFX side psu port.
Options are never bad! I can absolutely see it failing for some builds, but perfect for others, just as you identified in your two cases.
After an admittedly quick look and a few double takes, isn`t it true that the helios case`s back plate can have the lower 1/3 removed just by removing 2 screws?
or did you miss that Jay?
I've just done a build with this in a Fractal Meshify 2 case. It works fantastically imo (there's loads of space behind the mobo tray in this case). It allows me to keep the 3.5" drive cage in the bottom of the case as well as a chunky AIO rad on the front.
My last build was in an H7 Flow with a Rm850x. I found that with 12" sleeved extensions AND 3 fans in the front (similar to that H7 Elite) the PSU basement gets quite full of excess cables and it can rub the bottom fan. It took a good bit of work to neatly loop the excess in the basement between the PSU and the front fan. I think a side plug 850 would have been great.
How are you liking the H7 Flow so far? Debating between that and the Lancool 216 for an editing build I’m planning.
@@SixShooter14 The cable bar is removable, right?
@@MarshallFlores yes it is.
I'd love a more "high end" version of these
Hopefully they're on the way
It's a great idea
Just takes a second to think about how it would work in your specific build
I used one of these in my new build with a 4090 and a Lancool II tower. the bent cables were a little tight, but overall the cable management was better and the lower magnetic door won't stay closed if you don't get a good clean fit, and my door closes and stays shut just fine. I actually really like it. Its much better for air flow and a clean look from through the glass panel.
0:36 The way seeing Jay struggle opening his laptop
I wish I had had this for my latest build. Getting CableMod's 24 pin connector to reach in the NZXT H7 was pretty hard with the RM1000x. Also, someone explain NZXT's weird signature bracket to me, by the way. It was so much in the way.
Can I ask? can they make the plug on opposite fan?
Thanks for the video on this new design!! I'm planning on getting this to use with the Lian Li V3000 plus.
Has anyone tested it with this case to see how well it fits inside?
This looks amazing for the Hyte Y60 where the PSU is mounted sideways. Kinda thinking about getting one of these for my new build in that case.
Here's my favorite thing about this channel so far, I've been watching for years. Jay is VERY opinionated, for good reason, he's been doing this forever. But that makes Jay so AWESOME is this: He's very opinionated, based on experience, BUT HE'S NOT AFRAID TO TRY SOMETHING EVEN IF HE THINKS IT WONT WORK, AND HE WILL CHANGE HIS OPINION BASED ON WHAT HE DISCOVERS AND HAS NO PROBLEM MODIFYING HIS APPROACH OR CHANGING HIS THOUGHTS ON AN ISSUE. He came into this fairly certain that he'd have all sorts of problems, but by the end, he gave the idea his endorsement because although he's OPINIONATED, he's also very open-minded. THAT is why I love jay. He's not afraid to speak his mind, AND not afraid to try new things and change his opinion based on what he finds. Perfect storm of good traits right there.
I literally got this PSU alongside a 4090 and I struggled a lot last week to fit those cables in my Lian Li Lancool II. This video would've been very helpful a bit sooner 😂
He already had to time travel to post this two weeks earlier than planned. 🙂
I was looking at literally the same setup a couple days ago (this psu, Lancool II mesh, and 4090.) What was difficult about it?
@@Hagop64 If you look at your case's little metal panel that opens downwards, the one below the glass panel, it has 2 metal plates screwed to it on the inside. I had to unscrew those in order to make some room for the cables to bend and even then it was difficult to fully close the panel until the magnets made contact. The worst offender was the main motherboard cable. I had to unstick the individual cables from each other a bit in order to plug in both connectors. The actual panel is a bit bent outwards in the middle for me right now due to the cables being cluttered inside so I'm guessing I need to find a better solution to manage them.
I just built a computer using the 1000x shift in a Lian Li Lancool III and I pretty easily got the magnetic side panel to close with no problems. Can’t say the stress on the plug doesn’t worry me a little but it let me add multiple fans on the bottom of the case for additional inlet air flow without all the wires from the power supply restricting airflow.😊
I have the 1000w shift in my Torrent case. It fits nice cables run emeasily on the side. It was nice to run from the side straight out to the leftside of case through side grommets. I won't lie at first I thought it was not going to work but it made for easy cable management
This looks like another good idea, that'll be a fantastic benefit for the like 5% of people who need it. Otherwise, it's overpriced and ahead of it's time. Maybe once MoBo manufactures change to smaller plugs, or if cases go back to being flat instead of standing, this would work, but for now? It's just another gimmick that hurts itself in confusion.
I just bought a shift for my new build. I think it's going to work out beautifully. The case I have sticks all HDDs in the bay directly behind the PSU, so bringing those cables out the side is going to clear that rats nest up nicely, and make the drive bay much cleaner.
Was trying to get the seasonic vertex but everywhere it was out of stock, so I went with corsair for an atx3.0 power supply, after it arrived I realized it was side output, in the corsair 5000d it fit wonderfully an cable management was really clean, also a traditional layout makes having a hard drive cage very painful, this eliminated that issue, so I was pleased.
Perhaps these Shift power supplies will encourage case designers to allow a deeper space for cable management rather than the measely 10-20mm they leave for us now.
I picked up a 850 shift for my first build. 12700k and a 4070 Ti Gaming x trio and a Gungnir 120R case. Cable management has been an absolute breeze and I don't regret getting the shift. Some cables are long but having that nice ease of access make this so much better for the long run
ALWAYS better to be too long than too short when it comes to cables.
I can imagine this might be beneficial for cases like the O11-family, but I think the ports might be in the wrong direction for it
The O11 allows you to mount the PSU with fan facing towards the outside or the inside of the case, I think it will be fine lol. The fan will face the inside of the case but that back section has so much room that it should still have ample airflow
@@TheOriginalFaxon In an o11, if you mount it with fan side out, the cable ports stick up. This limits you to only being to mount this in the bottom most slot of an o11 but leaves the cables going upwards into the hard drive cage. I would rather mount my PSU at the top with the cables facing down, fan facing out, but that's not an option with this PSU. I could mount it at the bottom of the case with the cables facing upwards but not even that works for every build.
I hope corsair adds more options for the shift series so alternative cable directions are available. Mounting at the top with cables going down would be more ideal for my build.
I just plugged this into my O11. Yes I had to take the hard drive cage out but overall it cleaned up the back of my case IMO
Glad you showed the Fractal Design Torrent, that's the case I plan on using for my future build with a shift series psu. Thanks for pointing out the frame and wires rubbing against each other, I now know to be cautious when installing said psu.
I believe a 90° plug with like a 45° cable angle would be a good idea for these power supply
Just wanted to let you know that you are doing absolutely amazing job with these videos! 😊
This design is def no failure! I love it, built with the RM1000 shift and it changes how you do things in a great way!
Damn I am running a SF750 with a 4090 and the cable has the full 600W available. That's wack they lock the 850W down.
011 Dynamic is a weird case to choose to demo first considering the vast majority of cases won't orient the power supply that way. This PSU was clearly designed for a more traditional mount; I'm way more curious about how it'd fit in like a Lancool.
Can't really ever see this taking off for the masses. And forget getting any custom cables as well. I'll pass on this.
They have Type 5 custom cables tough,...
You know that you're early to a video when the comments are full of "First."
@vavr stalker Right then, in your opinion, what would be the tell-tale sign of being early to a video?
@@clue_470 comments or ‘it feels illegal to be this early’😂
Some number
You don't say.
@@J-Rizzler That is a great point!
Also really convenient for a case that has the psu on its side behind the motherboard. So the fan can go out and the cables run out of the top which is much more clean and easy than having the cables come out of the back.
This would work really well in my Silverstone Temjin Tj07 as i have a 120.3 in the lower compartment as well as the PSU. It would make the compartment less cluttered and facilitate smoother airflow.
This would be perfect for my case (O11 knockoff made by Kedeirs but mine doesn't have that hard drive cage in the way), but it seems like it would be better if they had made the cables end in a right angle where they plugged into the power supply
haha i remember you guys deciding not to get this psu in that microcenter build video..glad you did a review on it though, im actually intrigued in one now..
When I look at these cases and Jay going "there's not much room for cables", I'm like "These cases have so much room for cables these days"
Omg the cut at 4:52 making me think that I was accidentally clicking something to skip the video and losing my mind
As someone that has a 5000d case, this power supply is AMAZING.
I'm a fan of this concept, but definitely would want some custom cables from someone like CableMod. The sheathing alone would probably feel worthwhile.
Well slimmer cables that come with the PSU is a step forward lol… Finally? I have bought custom cables from Titan rig for every Corsair PSU… I would be excited if they made this shift series exactly how they have with both cable orientations to chose from. Thanks for the video Jay ✋
If they went to the trouble of having twice the connectors on the side, just rotated 90 degrees... it begs the question why not have one set on the side and one set on the back (like a traditional PSU), that way you can use whichever layout works for you (or mix and match)?
I defos laughed a lot harder than i should have at the cable management skit... 🤣
On the torrent case I’d get a small piece of rubber or plastic tube and cut a slit in it to slide over the edge of the metal and that will make a sort of grommet. I have done this a lot as a diesel mechanic using a piece of airline tubing so when running electrical wires along frames or in dashboards to keep from having the wires damaged and shorting out. There is a little wiring hack for any time worries about damage. You can also put a couple of strips of tape to do the same. I’d use electrical tape if going this route. The glue on electrical tape is less sticky and will have a less of a chance of peeling paint unlike duct tape
I checked my fractal torrent and that "sharp edge" is smooth as can be. Either he got a defect or he was exaggerating. That damage on his cable likely was just factory damage.
If you rewind the video you can see the cables were already damage before going in.
on the O11 dynamic, I do believe most people take the hard drive cages out. I had a couple fan controllers in mine and without taking out the hard drive cages there’s no way all my cables would have fit.
It looks great. But is yet another cable standard with a different plug. Surely it is high time that cable connections to PSUs were standardised? Would be great if you could just simply buy a 12" or 18" SATA cable, for example, to fit your build and simplify cable management knowing it was going to fit because the plugs were as standard as an ATX 24 pin.
Would be cool if there was 90 degree adapters as well so the cables are straight.. I like it
@JayzTwoCents with the Corsair Crystal Series 680X case you don't want to use this power supply at all. You can put it in without the cables but I doubt, that you will with the cables. The case is divided into two compartments and where the one with the motherboard has a normal width of 22cm, the other one for drives, power supply and so on is far smaller.
So the power supply is laying on the side with its fan pointing to the side. Above the power supply are directly the drive cages. That is no problem, as the cables would face down. But you have not much space down. If you remove the 2,5" drive cage below the power supply, which is also use as rest for the supply, you would only have 4cm below the drive and you would have no chance of changing any cable (adding or removing) without completely remove the power supply and it would be a very tight fit down there.
You can get the supply with cables in there, but the handling is horrible and you give up the space below the supply, that I personally used to stow away some of the longer cables, as there is enough space for 3 x 3,5" and 4 x 2,5" drives above the power supply.
i think this powersupply is intended more on the dual chamber cases so the cables are going up to the huge compartment of the psu chamber behind the motherboard. i had the techware vxm case and i had trouble routing the cables coz it's pressing against the part where you put the side intake fans and i had to hard bend the cables just to get it in the huge space behind the motherboard and to feed it to the holes.
I would work really well in the reversed layout on the o11 in the position behind the cpu. I have a build I am working on that is setup in that fashion mainly because I needed an area to mount some stuff on the backside. Could also be pretty handy in some test bench setups having the cables up top.
I feel like that PSU is a problem looking for a solution.
It would be great for your guys who are building systems and breaking them down more often.
Personally I'd need a second SKU with the plugs on the other side, so I can run fan up with the case on the floor.
Seeing the amount of insulation damage already isn't good, that means they've gone something cheaper and less resilient.
Jay: This slope is a problem if you PSU is too long
Dremel: Am i a joke to you ?
It seems they are slowly comming into a agreement of standart even in case cable management, TUF trying the backwards plugs, the Power Delivery PCB, the 90 degree plugs, 12V PSU and so on
1/4" clear vinyl tube makes a nice protectant for sharp edges, just cut it open along one side, slip it over the edge, no cable rubs, pretty much invisible
So if more Mother board makers get on board with ALL the connections on the BACK of the MB where they SHOULD be and something like this, you could have the cleanest build ever. (outside of the ONE cable going to the graphics card.) I like this PSU. the side pins were clever.
I have the AP201 and had to do some cramped cable management when building. Wondering now if pushing the cables out the side of the psu would have made it easier to deal with... Might have to look into this
Honestly, this would seem to work well in a Corsair Graphite 380T (old niche case I know) with a little modding of making a cutout on the side where the cables come out on the support plate. This way it's easier to put a high wattage PSU in and still being able to use your 3,5" bays instead of using a SFF PSU. There is quite some dead space in the case on that side that it might be worth it depending on how far into the chassis the plugs extend.
I had purchased the 1000 watt for my build. I had upgraded my GPU and needed more power. I have a Corsair 465X case and it did fine.
This PSU would be dramatically improved. If it was made slimmer with 90° power port next to the ports, a reversible mounting bracket, & fans on both the bottom & top.
This is why I watch this channel. Thank you Phil and Nic...and a guy named Brian needs thanks too. So thank you everyone.
I still have a Cooler Master HAF EVO case. One issue in that case's stock config is that a longer PSU's wires hit the back of the PCB on the hot swap bays. No problem with this PSU.
Love this design, wish that they'd have one with a hybrid of the normal PSU configuration, and the new side configuration here. with the most reasonable power routing for specific components and their logical placement
I have this power supply in my O11 D evo case; I bought it for my 4080 gpu. I didn't have any issues cable managing, especially compared to the last psu I had. That thing had the the bulkiest cables: these thin Corsair cables are much easier to work with. I like it. It goes well with my Corsair fans and H150 elite Capellix XT aio cooler
FINALLY!!! A video where Jayz actually opens a pc case instead of just talking to the camera about what he will *maybe* do in a next video with a product 😂😂😂😂
in my experience, CPU power cables rarely work well in any case. I assume there is a reason they are not made slightly longer.
