The FSP VITA GM 1000W PSU comes in a black-coloured box – very minimal text is found at the front, and only the vital information about key features, certifications, and standards.
On one of the corners of the box, you can find a QR code that links you to the user manual of the PSU online.
On the other side of the box is a list of the included cables. Hence, buyers can vet the PSU and its contents even before purchasing – helpful for DIY PC builders.
FSP packed the PSU with very minimal plastic – only the PSU comes in a plastic bag. FSP even chose to use recycled cardboard to secure the PSU in place, not polystyrene foam, which is also plastic. But there is a pad of foam on top to add protection. The PSU comes with a manual and warranty info page. There’s a QR on the box that links to a digital copy of the manual.
The FSP VITA GM comes with modular flat black cables similar to the Super Flower LEADEX III GOLD ATX 3.1, stiffer than the cables from the GAMEMAX GX-850 PRO, which suggests FSP uses thicker copper cables. FSP’s ADVAN GM would be a step above having individually sleeved cables.
The VITA GM 1000W comes with two FSP-labelled Velcro ties, along with the two that secured the two sets of cables, you get a total of four that you can use in your PC build. The PSU also comes with four screws and a tester jumper allowing builders to test the PSU before installation.
The FSP VITA GM 1000W PSU includes the following cables:
1x 20+4Pin Motherboard ATX (600mm)
2x 8Pin (4+4Pin) EPS (700mm)
2x 8Pin (6+2Pin) PCIe (800mm)
1x 16Pin PCIe 5.1 12V-2x6 (700mm)
1x 4xSATA (965mm)
2x 2x SATA/2x MOLEX (910mm)
The FSP VITA GM 1000W uses two separate 8-pin (4+4Pin) EPS connectors to plug into two 8-pin ATX EPS headers in a motherboard, not daisy-chained, which is a safer design wherein the load is divided into two cables. Hence, the FSP VITA GM 1000W is truly designed for high-end configurations.
