Do you get a power cable with a new psu, awaiting a cx500 v2, just i didnt see it in the contents description
just took order of the psu and brilliant cable managment in the connectors, its not modular but looks well, plus i got a nice wee badge for my case , dont know why theres a leaflet for a motherboard in there however lol, I hope it works with my amd mobo.
got a question: as the fan is positioned on top of the psu , rather than at the side next to the power cable insertion, how should the psu be positioned , with the fan upward hitting the roof of the case or downward onto the mobo?
If the PSU is at the top of the case I tend to point the fan on the PSU downwards so that it acts as an extra exhaust fan and helps keep the case cool. Most newer cases have the PSU at the bottom where it makes wiring neater and also keeps the PSU cooler etc. but proper ATX spec still has it at the top acting as an exhaust. I think it goes back to way back when PSUs were the only exhaust fan in a case
Yeah buddy, when it's at the top of the case; you generally want it pointing down, as there's no gap at the top! TSB
