excellent hey guys welcome back to Pauls hardware today I'm going to be doing an unboxing and overview of this 80 plus gold rated power supply from fractal this is the tesla r 2 800 watt starting off with a look at the front of the box we can see the 80 plus gold logo amongst to the other logos as mentioned that gives it an efficiency of 8790 and eighty-seven percent at 20 50 and 100 percent load and usually manufacturers will need to use higher quality internal components in order to meet the 80 plus gold standards so big reason why I got this particular power supply it is also SLI and crossfire certified and I actually chose this one specifically the power a gtx 780 one of them to begin with but I wanted to have headroom to power two of them and I'm quite confident that this power supply could push to seven 80s you also get a three year manufacturer warranty from fractal so that's nice to have on the back of the box we have your traditional marketing speak about clean quiet and efficient power stylish and contemporary Scandinavian design also of course the 80 plus gold efficiency chart if you wanted a visual on that you got a single 12 volt rail design which is again a nice selling point of this power supply extra-long 70 centimeter ATX 12 volt cable so even in a taller case you should have enough cable length there and also they have a fan speed shirt for the temperature controlled one hundred and thirty-five millimeter ball bearing fan and a DC output power chart of course you can see here it has that 66 amp single 12 volt rail that can push up to 792 wats you also have a white box inside the outer sleeve of the inner box for accessories you get a manual it does manual type things you get four screws there black for connecting the power spot of your case too long velcro straps which are handy to have a low velcro 5 zip ties an AC power cable of course pretty standard there and the power supply itself comes in a pouch oh that I'm not doing a very good job of showing that the power supply speaking of has a nice black housing it's got the fractal design logo on the side and it's just 165 millimeters in length which is that's a shorter than most typical 8800 watt power supplies and I should mention this is a standard ATX form factor power supply you can also see the hundred and thirty-five millimeter white ball bearing fan that kind of keeps the black and white traditional fractal color so I'm using this as a fractal to find our for case and I know it's going to match beautifully the fan is also very quiet I can vouch for that as well since I've actually used this even up to like fifty sixty percent fan speed you can just barely hear it at all FCC and power information on the other side there's your power chart again and 80 plus gold logo on the power supply itself and hex grilling at the back which I love because hex grilling is just about the best for exhaust and airflow you also have an AC cable plug of course there at the back and the on/off switch on the top you have an engraved fractal snowflake which I think also looks pretty cool I did do a build with this power supply if you guys are interested you can check it out and the fractal snowflake especially if you get some LED light going across it looks really really nice and in case you also didn't notice the frack or the housing of the power supply has kind of beveled edges around the sides which also looks pretty cool non-modular cables at the back as you can see one of the downsides of this power supply but that's one of the things that did to keep the price more reasonable also some additional hex ventilation at the back since this is kind of a shorter power supply they wanted to make sure that you get plenty of ventilation for the innards the cables are all sleeved quite nicely it's not like cloths leaving or anything like that but you can see some of the cables the inner cables on the sleeves are still there brightly colored colors as they are traditionally they're going to pick through just a little bit especially right up near the connectors so maybe consider some extensions if you're really concerned about how the cables look for the cables themselves you get your standard ATX 20 or 24 pin you get a single ATX 12 volt that is the longer 70 centimeters you get for pci express graphics or peg connectors all those are six plus two pin so pretty much good for single or two-way graphics card configurations 7 serial ata connectors only to 4-pin molex but I found those are less and less frequently used and you can always splitters on them if you really need to they do have the little squeeze to release plugs which I love from molex plug that tend to get stuck a lot and lastly a single floppy connector and that is going to wrap it up for this video guys once again this has been the fractal tesla r 2 800 watt power supply thank you very much for watching if you'd like to leave me some feedback you can do a like
