What do they call the PSU's that let you use only the wires you need?

[CorCentral]

I forgot what type of Power Supply's these are called.
These have plug-ins on the side that let you use just what you need instead of having tons of wires in your case from the PSU left unused.

Interesting you say that about the X-Connects. Have 3 powered up right now, and haven't had an issue with any of them (they're all 500W).

I forget the site that did a proper review but to summarize the X Connect:

- Unstable (at best) output when it works
- Highly prone to catastrophic failure

Doh, nevermind. Misread the product name.

I'll still find the review though, I believe they may have covered OCZ as well.
