Cables and Connectors
All of the harnesses are sleeved up to the last connector. The harness of the 6-pin PEG connector has an orange sleeve to make it recognizable. The cables are not very long, with a minimum length of 40cm or 16 inches. The 24-pin ATX, 4-pin ATX12V, and 6-pin PEG connectors are at this length, as well as the first SATA and Molex connectors.

Interesting concept though. I wonder how this will hold up with an 80mm fan?yyrkoon - Wednesday, April 2, 2008 - link
I use the Antec EarthWATTS 500 which also uses a 80mm fan, and i works fine. Matter of a fact the fan is barely audible most of the time.I do have do agree with the OP here though. At first I thought he/she was referring to the outside of the PSU, which I think does not look bad(except that ugly red button). The innards of this thing looks like it was put together by preschool children with construction paper, elmers glue . . . So . . . One cannot help but wonder if child labor is involved here.
They sent this thing out looking like it does(including the heat sink that looks like it was cut out of an aluminum block with a rock) knowing that you would take it apart ?

Well, since those heatsinks have to touch the external one, that is probably why they look like that, big and covered with thermal interface.
