Wow, really good deal. A shame its lacking connectors though; only has 4 SATA connectors and 3 Peripheral connections? I think my 550W has more. I kind of expected 6+ on a high end PSU however..

EDIT: Actually looking at the pictures you get like 9 SATA connectors. Not sure why the number is incorrect. Judging from reviews on the PSU the cable length is 21inch to 31 inch depending on the cable.

Close to pullin the trigger, although I don't need a new PSU it would be nice to have modular and support for a new video card if I am to upgrade. Also not sure if the cables will be long enough for my P180, maybe.

I don't even need another PSU, but I'm tempted to get this one despite the hideous green colour. That's a great price for a great unit.
 
very good deal for 850watt psu.. never seen one so cheap with good rating. Two people on newegg mention it popping and sparking (that doesnt sound very good) And others say the cables are not long enough. I dont need psu's as i have soooo many spare right now but still tempting. ((i like teh color of it looks fine to me hehe))
 
and u can add a 5870 for $200 ar...

Actually, the bundle deal isn't all that good, because you can't use the $20 coupon, and it adds $5 shipping to the cost of the PSU (or $10 total), which wipes out $5 of the bundle's $25 benefit. Come out to the same net price as buying each separately. Unless you were going to buy that card for the advertised price anyway, it's not compelling.
 
That jonnyguru review has sold more of those PSU than any advertising they have could have done

Yep, this is the best price I have ever seen on this unit
I have one, but bought when they first came out
I would instantly buy another except for one thing
The LATER newegg reviews on comments have 3 guys with choke squeal and 3 with snap crackle pop failures - a replay of the Antec PSU with bad fluid in the electrolytics
I have had both PSU and mobo with the squeal and i absolutely will not put up with that
Blowing caps is obviously not good
One guy says quality control has gone downhill
Nevertheless, I guess at that price i will have to take the chance on having to RMA the thing
