That's a really nice PSU with an even more nice price point 😎

I still can't wrap my head around the form of this, sorry.

hmmm..no RGB - something is definitely wrong here. 🙄

I wonder if this is better for the overall power delivery, since the main connectors are on the same PCB, rather than an angled daughterboard.

The only thing I kinda like is the inclusion of USB on the PSU.

It's designed for dual camber chassis like the O11 Dynamic, if you put it on the side you have ease of access to the power connectors, The USB hub will be good for fan controllers to control RGB and fan speeds. Allowing more USB devices to work from a single USB connector on your motherboard reducing visible cable clutter. I hunted down a picture for people still scratching their head over the form factor. https://img.overclockers.co.uk/images/POW-LIA-02359/a9b0da5edb6b7044c98d615f8303c946.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=fill&fill-color=fff&q=70&fill=solid&w=1446&h=1446

Thanks for going through the trouble, much appreciated! But sadly it just shows what I find so paradoxical: you have your power connections directing towards the side panel of the case, but your cables need to go towards the front (if I interpret this picture correctly). This makes you bend the cables 90° right at the connector, which I find very, very unnecessary. For the cables, I had the impression, it would be better to just go out straight and then into the cable management ("evo xl")... so you do not have two bends in one point, e.g. 90° to go to the front, and another 90° to go top or bottom as shown on the picture. Less cable bending is a good thing in my opinion, so that's why I still can't wrap my head around the form.

When they are individually sleaved it does not do much with the bending as each cable will bend it own way if they are joined then it will add more pressure to the cables on the outside and that's when it's worrying and rightfully so. Owning such a case I find I have to wrap the cables some what anyway, and it's a bit of a nest in the second chamber.
