"Corsair's modular HX series have proven to be extremely popular with enthusiasts, but can it's hard-wired brother the TX win our hearts?"

Corsair TX850w ATX PSU
 
I was gonna get the 1100W version but I settled for the Silverstone NV1000, maybe in my next build :)

Great review mate! :)
 
Woahh 87% efficiency all the way :o Very nice unit and review.

I have buitl a rig with the TX750w in it and I can tell it isn't that hard to manage the cables, which were similar in amount. You just need to make sure you have a case with good cable management options (I had the CM centurion 590, not really great) and you have a lot of duct tape / tie wraps lying around. Oh and reserve an hour or two :p

Yeah I certainly had a few eye rubbing moments while testing it. They should be slapping 80PLUS Silver Certification on it tbh. Only a couple of units i've ever seen can manage that.

no mention of "the box smells lovely so much that i might just wear it instead of perfume" :p

Haha was about to say, could of slotted in a cheeky line:

"Upon opening the box I was greeted by the usual intoxicating Corsair PSU smell, and decided to take a break from reviewing for a few minutes to relax." :p

HAHA I thought my post had gone unnoticed :p

Come to think about it...maybe I should re-test it with a gas mask on. That seductive smell, it's beautiful dark skin...oohohoo *tingles down spine*

*AHEM*
 
Rethinking about this... I'd love to bash a corsair PSU and see you eating your pants ^^

I guess everyone who's ever unpacked a corsair agrees on the smell :D
