Coolermaster M620 Powersupply review

Today it's time to take a look at a brand new power supply from Coolermaster. We recieved a sample of their latest creation named M620 which is a 620W powersupply as the name states. Even though it is not a 1000W power supply like the ones on the market it still might be able to perform well on the rails, so we will compare it to a few well performing PSU´s that we have tested in the past.

The product comes packed in a nice white box with a handle, on the back you can see information about the product in several different languages. The box is also equipped with a handle to make it easy to carry.

Inside everything is packed nicely in foam and everything has its own compartment. Included with the unit itself you get manual, power cable, and a small zip lock bag with four screws to mount the PSU.

The PCI-E power cables are colored with a green color. The green connector matches a green plugin on the PSU so you know where to plug it in. You also get a bunch of other power cables that you can use depending on your need. The good part with a modular PSU is that you can choose which cables are needed and that way you will leave more space in your case and more space for the airflow.

This specific PSU has three 12V rails, compared to others that only have one strong 12V rail these days. All these three rails are specced at 19 amps each. The 5 and 3.3V are also quite powerful with 25A each.

As I said earlier the PCI-E connectors are colored with a cool green color. The ATX and power cables are not modular on this PSU but all the others are. The extra plugins are extremely easy to connect and there is a click system which locks the cable on to the PSU.
