Not
only does the power supply come with a shielded VGA/HDD cable, it also
comes with a shielded power cable. While this cable does reduce
RFI / EMI to the power unit, it also gives you the added bonus of
looking good too.

In
the pictures above, you will find the standard ATX power connector as
well as the 12v aux power connector. The middle picture is of the
SATA power connectors and the last picture is of the dedicated fan power
connectors. The fan connectors are part of the ECASO (Enhanced
Cooling After System Off). This keeps low power to your fans to
help cool the system down after you shut your computer down. This
is temperature controlled, with up to 3 minutes of power to your fans
after shutdown.
As you
can see from the pictures, Raidmax twists all of the cables to help
reduce interference. The wires are plenty long enough to reach
components in most cases.
The
back of the power supply seems a little different than most. The
most obvious extra feature is the power outlet. Raidmax suggests
plugging a power strip into the back of the power supply unit and
plugging items like monitors, printers and scanners into it. This
will help reduce the power that those components normally use by taking
advantage of the power supplies stand-by mode. This is a very
clever idea. Bonus points to Raidmax for including this option.
The other feature is a little more common, it's the fan control.
The three settings A = Automatic, L = Low and M = Medium, let you
control the noise and speed levels of the power supplies built-in fans.
