Packaging and Accessories
The box design naturally puts the PSU front and center with a very large graphic, as the aesthetics of this model are one of its key features. The front side has a small table with a description of the included cables.
At the rear, we have predominantly a multi-language table explaining the PSU's key features. There is also a pair of graphs for efficiency and noise curve, and a power distribution table.
Inside, Corsair has stuck to their eco-packaging mindset, using pressed recycled cardboard to protect the main unit and hold the cables. There is a drawstring bag for the modular cables, and a wrap of the same material around the main PSU. Aside from the main unit and cables, there are a handful of cable ties and mounting screws.

There is a great selection of cables with this model, with various options depending on the case and routing. We received two different-region power cables as well, which may not be the case for retail models.
Each cable has a single low profile comb fitted, which can be moved up and down to a desired position.
In a more premium fashion, each wire is individually sleeved with fabric, offering a lovely tactile experience. These cables also have low friction on parts of the case and build as they are being routed.
The only cables which don't have the same sleeving are the pair of different length iCUE LINK wires which instead have a textured pattern applied to the wire itself; and the USB-C to motherboard connector, which is plain.
To save space on the panel, the Corsair 'Type 5' power connectors at the PSU side are smaller than the industry standard.
There are two different cables included for use with the PinProtect+ feature; the first is a regular right-angled 12V-2x6 cable which has a dual color connector to help with correct seating, and the second is a cable that attaches to the PSU side with the 12V-2x6 connector, but can be used with graphics cards that have the older 6/8 pin PCIe connector, while retaining the PinProtect+ features.
A pair of iCUE LINK cables are provided, one shorter at 135 mm, and one longer 600 mm cable.
