Antec True Power Trio 430 Watt - What You Get continued
(Page 2 of 4 )
All of the wires coming out of the PSU are wrapped up, which adds a nice look of completeness to the PSU. You get two strands of molex connectors, two strands of SATA cables, a six pin PCI-Express cord, a four pin CPU cord, and the main ATX connector. It should be plenty for your typical user.
I'm not a fan of having dozens of strands coming out of the PSU. It gets hard to hide the extra cords with the more you have. Bunching up all the extra cords kills air flow, which is vital for computers.
Very few power supplies I have seen have had fan-only connectors. It's nice to have since you could quickly fill up the available connectors fast, and it removes the fans from the lines that attach to the optical devices and hard drives that you may use them with.
This last connector I have only found on Antec power supplies. It looks like a standard three pin fan connector that goes into your motherboard. The neat thing here is that it’s for the fan in the power supply. You rarely find this, and it's a nice feature to have to help control the fan in your power supply.
I really wish more companies had things like this. For a home theater PC, this is a really good feature; you can adjust the fan and keep it quiet while you are watching a TV show.
