OC3D Review: Corsair HX620 620w Modular PSU

I'm looking at getting a Lian Li V1000B soon and was wondering if anyone has tried fitting a Corsair HX620 in one of these. I know from the specs that the PSU is physically small enough to fit, but is there enough space for the modular connectors and cables to be routed?

Anyone tried or seen this configuration, thanks for any info.

For those interested im looking at making something along the lines of:

Lian-Li V1000B

Corsair HX620W

Core 2 Duo E6600

Thermalright U-120 Extreme

Asus Striker Extreme

2Gb Corsair dominator

XFX 8800GTX 768MB

X-Fi Elite Pro

Adaptec 3805 (8chan PCIe raid)

4x 500GB Seagate 7200.10 (Raid 5)

1x 150 GB Raptor

Dell 2407WFP
 
I can't imagine you'd have any problems at all really. The PSU is a fairly standard size and the modular connectors only add a couple of mm to the size. In fact, they are probably the smallest footprint modular connectors of almost all modular PSU's
 
Indeed, i don't expect there to be any problem really, just want to be sure. I know the V1000 is notorius for PSU fit problems as it has an aluminium wall between PSU and HDD enclosures that makes any oversized PSU a no. Just wanted to check that the extra size added by the modular cable connectors wasn't going to push me just over size :)

Hehe, would rather not have to take a dremel to it if i can help it :)

Last case was a custom modded H2O cooled Lian Li PC70 with a 120x240 radiator modded into the top panel, self built custom FanBus, window, Cathodes etc. Hoping to keep this one nice and plain and simple as I dont really have the time and workshop space these days to do this kind of work :p

Well 1.5Tb once you take raid into account (less due to native drive sizes etc)

Should be about 1.6Tb once you add on the 150Gb raptor system drive.

Last system I have was built some time ago now:

Barton 3000

1Gb Ram

Ati 9800pro

640Gb Hdd

So its about time I treated myself .

Probably be another month till I have the spending money together to pull this off, so will likely have changed a bit by then anyway.
 
After reading this review i went out and purchased one - stuck it in my new build last night!

£80 each, and i got two as im building my own rig this/next week plus my brothers (and another two within the month, if not at the same time lol)
