The DarkPower P6-470W provides a reckonable number of very long cables. All of the cables are approximately 75cm long. You are most likely going to hate the fact that it is not modular. Fortunately some of the cables are sleeved while the rest are twisted, in order to maintain as much order as possible inside a case. The 24-pin ATX and P4-P8 12V power cables are sleeved. There are also two PCI-E cables and a 4-pin Molex cable which are also sleeved, but enhanced as well so as to minimize power ripple and/or noise. There are two long cables which give three Molex connectors and one floppy connector each, as well as two cables which provide two SATA connectors each. Finally, there are six fan connectors (three Molex and three 3-pin connectors) for case and system fans. If you connect your fans to these cables, their speed will be controlled by the PSU according to the case temperature. Also, the fans connected directly to the PSU will run for 3 minutes after the system shuts down because of the ECASO system, in order to properly cool down the system.

It was about time we cracked the P6-470W open and check its interior. The fans used for cooling the unit are 80mm sleeve bearing fans. Strangely, the exhaust fan is different than the intake for some reason; perhaps they run at different speeds. The equipment used for building the DarkPower unit seems to be of high quality. There are considerably sized black heatsinks and the cable clutter is reduced down to the minimum possible. Not a single wire is loose. The PCB of the unit is also fibre reinforced for maximum durability. Undoubtedly quite an amount of attention was given when designing this unit.
