Exterior

As with the packaging the unit itself has gold elements to it also. The outer shell has a premium feel and look to it with the surface being rough. Aesthetically the AURUM CM SERIES is up there with the best.

Our PSU under the spotlight today has a fan grill with a 120mm PWM cooling fan underneath. In the next section we will delve inside the unit and discover what brand/model this fan actually is.

Flipping the PSU over, as is typical with all PSUs the AURUM CM SERIES has a specifications label showing total output and ampage for rails. There are 4x +12v rails inside this PSU each with 18A giving a total of 600W for dedicated graphics.

Due to the AURUM CM SERIES being modular we have various slots for cable connectivity. There is a slot for PCI-E and 4x slots for SATA/Molex.


Modular slots for attaching cables


Our PSU has some cables hard-wired into the unit such as 24-pin ATX and CPU power (EPS/E-ATX) which are mandatory and there is also a PCI-E cable with 2x connectors – both are 8-pin. These cables unlike the modular cables are braided with black netting.
