    Ooooh, that looks nice! Especially if you're doing a black and blue build...

    Reading!

    Don't see the point in making the back of the PSU 'pretty', no one looks there!

    Looks good otherwise for gigabyte builds. Not sure how it would look with 'MSI Brown'

    'On the closer look (internal)' page all three pictures are the same.

    £80 for what is essentially a non-modular 600W PSU leaves a lot to be desired IMO.

    You can change the colour so even if brown isn't covered i imagine Asus 'ROG red' will be etc.
    2500K // GENE-Z/GEN3 // GeiL Evo 2133 // GTX 680 // m4 & 2TB Red // Xonar STX // AX760i // TJ08-E

    All @ stock = High speed, no noise.

    Well its better looking than the original GS series, and seems to perform better too. Shame there's not a 500W version, but price is a bit steep.

    Nice review again

    Thanks for the comments guys!

    Really is a nice piece of kit this... If they did a modular version i'd be all over it like a rash!! Some more refreshes from Corsair PSUs incoming too.
