Can I get the steel bar remove from the power supply? I called EVGA and they said just make a note when you make an order.

If it CAN be removed (which I doubt, as it seems pretty solidly a part of the unit), then the company would have to do it, I think. But why would you want to remove it? It juts out only an inch-and-a-half from the back and looks decent, too. It turned out to be useful for installing the PSU in the case, and afterwards it can be good for keeping track of those not-so-often-used-but-easily-lost USB cables, like for a camera.

I believe the power supply is made by Logisys, but I don't have the unit here where I can examine it to confirm. Others have reported problems with the PSU, but I haven't had any issues yet. I'm only using my system occasionally so it hasn't been stressed hard yet. I figure if it does go out, I can replace it easily so it was a non-issue for me. Still the cheapest price on a tower case that I could find.

I agree with the Benjamin, Either is a good PSU, I went with the evga since all my GPU's and past experience has been good. Customer service has been good to me anytime I called... Good Luck buddy!

Just plug it in and flip the switch, should be all it takes, if it isn't working Amazon and Corsair both have great customer service (in my experience) so it can be replaced no problem. Do note that if it isn't hooked up to a motherboard or shorted (at your own risk) it won't actually put out power due to a connection detecting pin. It is possible to short said pin and plug in a fan or something to test it but I wouldn't necessarily suggest that.

I ordered this as a gift for my son. It came with the power supply as advertised. If you purchased it from Amazon you are covered. Contact Amazon's customer service and request a power supply or replacement of the entire unit and I know they will take care of it. This is the main reason I always order from Amazon. I hope this helps. Dave J.

No worth the chance. This thing is absolute garbage. I lost a heck of a lot from this, but I should have read the feedback. I found later most power supply's cannot carry this kind of current. I returned it for a EVGA 1300 watt 80 plus gold supply that cost only 190$. I can live with 1300 vs 1600. But if you need that mush power I don't know where you will get it on a single rail. I would probably go with something external like a server grade. Good luck.

I used mine for a 780Ti before the Ti plates were produced. As long as the back pattern matches you should be fine. You can contact EVGA to be sure.

My bet is still a power issue. While it came with the upgraded power supply I'll bet they also added upgraded the video card. When I ordered mine I also ordered a 700w power supply.

Joshua, My best advice is to contact EVGA with your make, model, of computer so that they can best advise. This Power supply comes with all sorts of cables but I rather be sure than disappointed.

This bridge is for cards with 1 slot between them. If you will have the cards below another, where the cards are 2 Slots each then you need EVGA part number: 100-2W-0022-LR .

Yes you can. There is, however, a process. Your going to have to call ASUS, which is a hassle until you get to a department that can actually help you, and have them e-mail you a free shipping slip along with the RMA forms. You will be without your computer for 1-2 weeks and may have your system wiped clean. I suggest you do two upgrades and make your life a hell of a lot easier. The video card seems to have a huge issue with the wires coming off of the fan connectors and the power supply unit barely cuts it. Grab yourself a 430-500 watt (high rated!) PSU and a video card in your budget (save for a GTX 660 or something) and you will be happy as hell with your system. This ~$200 upgrade will turn your rig into a true powerhouse, without breaking the bank too much.

Single rail system.Does the PSU work as it is suppose too? Yes. It is quiet. It also comes with a 10 year warranty and I have used it. EVGA had a recall on this (select Serial Number) unit and notified the affected customers. They paid for shipping both ways and had a cross ship in place for this issue. EVGA takes care of their customers! So does Amazon. If you are curious about the cable length, I have a CM Cosmos2 and this PSU and the cables reach their points just fine. I am happy with it and will buy another for another build.

What I did was open the case and take the guts out. I ported them to a case with a 120mm fan. I had to solder a bit and it was a pain in the butt. The PSU is decent here but it sounds like a jet engine. Mine had TWO 80mm fans. Insane. Now I have one decent, quiet PSU. Another option is to simply unplug one of the fans - unscrew the back and unplug the intake fan (facing the Mobo). You probably want to leave the exhaust fan intact.

Are you trying to compare this EVGA with the MSI power edition??? If this is OK then choose MSI with eyes closed, it's better. If I'm wrong, I can't help you jejeje maybe this page can help you, but I think it will no answer your question. http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html

Best to unhook battery cables via back. I did not and i think i fried the video card or main board. Good luck take pictures as you go.

Yes I had the same problem, but I herd mine go out with a loud noise. I shipped it to a authorized repair source. It was 2 years 3 months old. Out of warranty ,this should last much longer. The mother board went out. $140 for a new part. plus shipping both ways. New their $400 I thought it was worth it.
