On the face of the small box is a photo of the PSU with the model description and several icons, including the 80 PLUS Bronze badge. On the back are details about the PSU's cables, dimensions, and power specifications.


Once you open the box, you will be greeted by a message welcoming you to the AQIRYS ecosystem.


The bundle includes fixing bolts, a sticker, the user's manual, AC power cord, colored piece of paper with the PSU series sign, and greeting on the other side. There are no Velcro straps or even zip ties.


The fan grille looks restrictive, which will affect noise since the fan will have to spin faster to provide the necessary airflow. The power switch and small label informing you about the 230 V input, right below the AC receptacle, are on the front.


The power specifications label has been put on one of two sides. You will find AQIRYS's logo and model description on the other one.


The cables are fixed to keep production cost low.


This is a compact PSU with a nice exterior because of its white cables.

Cables and Connectors

At 540 mm, the ATX cable is long enough for a non-modular PSU, as is the EPS cable. However, there unfortunately are two EPS connectors on the same cable using 18AWG instead of 16AWG gauges. I hate seeing two EPS connectors on the same cable since these connectors can deliver up to 450 W of power at full load, which can damage the gauges. Thankfully, the PCIe connectors are on dedicated cables, but don't use the PCIe splitter to power an energy-hungry high-performance graphics card. I don't see any reason at all to include a PCIe splitter in the bundle. If you need more PCIe connectors, you have to get another PSU.


Finally, the number of SATA and 4-pin Molex peripheral connectors is good for a non-modular PSU, and the distance between these connectors is adequate.
