EVGA SuperNOVA 850 G3 Fully Modular Power Supply

Fully modular design is nice to keep unneeded cables out of your case and maximize airflow.
Eco mode is nice to keep the unit silent during low / medium load, the fan only turns on when gaming.
Clean, low ripple power with all the safety features.
Being fully modular is fantastic, it really makes customization easy and future expansions a breeze.
Cables are the perfect length for my mid size tower, but I don't think they are long enough for full size towers.

Extremely quiet with eco fan switch off or on.
This psu will provide plenty of power and features for the price.
