yucereal@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 01/09/12	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:None. Pros:Reliable, and modular. Comment: Works as expected and modular cable helps with internal components.
mark_h@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 08/31/11	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:8 pin atx power cutting it a little short. Pros:modular, quiet. Comment: my first modular psu, nicely packed and had a little reusable pouch to store all unused or spare cables. Nice modular design, the 12v 8pin a bit short barley fit the 400r Cosair case. other than that very nice to only use the cables your need. got this with the 400r case for 150$ great deal. pretty quiet and efficient imo. good buy.
Scott_D@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 08/20/11	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:Have none. Pros:Runs quiet. Comment: This is the first Corsair power supply. So far it appears to be working great. From what I am told the PS is a Seasonic M12 which are one of the best PS made. The only thing that was wrong was the side sticker was put on wrong for placing the PS in the bottom of the case. It was put on upside down which is not a problem for me since the case its in is top mounted.
dshooper@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 08/10/11	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:Noisy after several years use Pros:Reliable; modular design Comment: I purchased this unit more than four years ago and it's worked almost continuously (PC powered on all the time) and reliably since that time. My only complaint is that lately it is producing an electronic "buzz" (not related to fan) which now makes it the loudest component in my system. Time for a replacement.
HappyBB@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 09/09/09	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:8 pin too shortRegular priceStill have little buzzing noise Pros:QuietNice packModularQuality Comment: Is well packed, enough cables.The 8 pin is too short for bottom PSU case, should come with an extension cable.Fan is very quiet but still have little buzzing noise(not from the fan).

peter_I@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 04/03/09	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:Price Pros:Modular, Orgainzed, Cables Comment: Great Psu no problems and very quiet compared to other psu. Great amout of cable for any pc build and sli is only for mid cards. Cost alot compared to have wattage vewrsions of other psu's
UncleRonnie@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 02/27/09	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:None Pros:- Quiet- Adequate power- Runs cool- Modualar design Comment: Bought this PSU for my HTPC build. Although the rated power is probably overkill for my application, I wanted a good PSU with a modular design for better cable management. Runs quiet and cool.
Yvonsky@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 02/09/09	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:Have to wait for MIR Pros:Near silentStabilityModularGreat qualitySingle 120mm fan5 years warrantyNice looking cables Comment: Awesome PSU, I really like the modular cables. Never had a power supply before that was this silent. 520W is enough power for my needs. 5 years warranty is great. If you have the money, go for it, it's really worth it.
Randal_C@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 11/29/08	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:none Pros:Very easy to install. has good cable management Comment: Good air flow due to the large fan. the cables were easy to manage and have good connectors. More than enough power to support my Q6600, 4 banks of ram, EVGA 9500GT
Bun-Bun@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 10/07/08	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:-cables are ugly and sometimes annoying to work with Pros:-good voltage regulation-low ripple-efficent-modular-inexpensive Comment: I have built probably 20 computers useing these PSU's in the past year and everyone of them performance almost exactly the same. They are Seasonic OEM which is a proven reliable design. It's one of the only products in the computer industry that regardless of the situation (extremes excluded) I can reccomend either the HX520 or HX620. Corsair has really out done themselves with this unit.
bionicbadger@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 10/02/08	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:some modular cables are a pain to remove and reinstall Pros:quiet, modular Comment: Bought this for a computer I built for my brother. Nice and queit, and modular to boot. Had some difficulty when I needed to remove and reinstall some of the modular cables, but overall quite satisfied. 520W is more than enough power for what I was going to use.
Kevin_N@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 08/15/08	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:None that I can think of! Although, the fan is TOO quiet in my opinion. Would like it better if it ramped up just a bit more, as I am sort of worried how even at load the fan blows almost no air. But this SHOULD be a good thing; silence! Pros:Very quiet, stable. Comment: Very good PSU, Love the modular cables. Would buy again if I needed another psu (or maybe the hx620 for more power).Currently powering:E8400Asus P5Q9800GX2500GB AAKS2GB Platinum Rev II
KiLrDuK@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 07/17/08	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:Perhaps could use a second fan. Pros:Lots of power. Quiet. Modular cables. Large fan. Comment: I bought this for a new system - Q6600, P5K, 2 hard drives, 8800 gt with no issues. The supply is nice and quiet - I can't hear it over the stock Q6600 fan. It comes with a nice bag to hold the extra modular cables and black scres to attch the supply to your system - a nice touch I thought.
Brooke_M@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 07/16/08	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:None. Pros:Quiet fan, modular, tests show it performs well, lots of amps on 12V rail for a 520W power supply. Comment: I like this power supply. It should be enough to power any single graphics card including the X2's and GX2's.Fan is nice and quiet, the tests show very little ripple, it looks good and the modular cables are a really nice feature. Recommended.
Sam_C@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 07/08/08	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:can't think of one Pros:Quietsingle 120mm fangood quality/price ratiomodular Comment: I got this in the weekly specials. This PSU is very quiet and powerful enough for demanding systems. It has a good weight to it and feels really well made. I like the modular cables, makes it easier for cable-managing. I would certainly buy again if I need one.

Modular and quiet and nice looking too. Being modular helped my case airflow and makes it look nicer. Highly recommended.
stormrider88@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 06/20/08	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:-slight chirping noise when powered on-price Pros:-modular-80% efficiency-5 year warranty Comment: I read that this PSU was very quiet, but I was little disappointed when I turned it on, I immediately heard a chirping noise emitting from the PSU, I did get it exchanged at NCIX, but new one still has it but not as loud. I just decided it wasn't worth going to the store again to have it exchanged. Other than that, the PSU is excellent.
R6T@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 06/19/08	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:None Pros:Modular cablesPricePower is Sufficient Comment: Great Power Supply. Modular cables make for a clean build.Already want to get a 620HX for my next build!Great quality & price.

Xilikon@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 05/08/08	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:Yucky yellow side label :( Pros:Great quality power supply with a excellent 5 year warranty and great power efficiency Comment: I bought one for my main pc mainly to take advantage of the modular wires black wires for a nicer inner look (I have a side window so this matter). With lots and lots of raving reviews about this power supply, you can't go wrong with this purchase and it even provide a 8 pin PCI-E connector for the newest cards.
redodger@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 04/27/08	CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply Cons:Not as nice as the Enermax Modu82 Pros:Quiet. Well packaged. Comment: I purchased this PS at the same time as the Enermax Modu82. I got both for their reputation as quiet power supplies. On all counts the Enermax is better. It is quieter, has nice cables, and better cable ties. The Corsair is a nice power supply, but not the best. The cables seemed cheap.
