A Detailed Look
The EVGA SuperNOVA G2 power supply enclosures are painted with a flat black hammertone finish and measure 180mm (7.1”) long. The back panel includes an On-Off switch, AC receptacle and a small 2-position switch labeled “ECO OFF/ON”.
The SuperNOVA G2 power supplies incorporate EVGA’s ECO Intelligent Thermal Control System for fan speed control. This allows the end user to select silent, fan-less operation for low to mid power applications.

With the ECO Thermal Control System turned ON, the power supply cooling fan does not start spinning until the internal component temperatures reach a pre-programmed setting. The fan then operates at low (750 rpm) or high speed (1500 rpm) based on load and temperature (see graph above).
Both power supplies use a 140mm, seven blade fan on the bottom for cooling. The dual ball bearing Globe Fan (RL4Z B1402512HH) is rated for 0.50A at 12 VDC and is controlled by the ECO Thermal Control System.
The front panel incorporates twelve modular cable connectors, all nicely labeled.
The SuperNOVA G2 power supplies come with a good assortment of all modular cables and connectors. All of the cables are sleeved. As we mentioned previously, the cable sets for the 750 G2 and 850 G2 are very similar, except the 750 G2 gives you four 6+2 pin PCI-E connectors, while the 850 G2 provides four 6+2 pin and two 6-pin PCI-E connectors.

The PSU modular connectors are shit. Typical plastic-to-plastic where you must apply humongous pressure so as to get it connected/disconnected (let alone when a couple of years have passed by, thus some heat and whatnot has been around – I expect it to break by then).
Also, the Sata cables would just not fit, so I’m stuck with a Molex-to-Sata adaptor, while I mail EVGA about it.
That’s unfortunate to hear.
That’s unfortunate to hear. The Super Flower branded Leadex Gold 750 has the best modular sockets and cables I’ve ever used. Certainly a pleasure to use after years with Seasonic’s horrible ‘death grip’ cables/sockets. The fit is firm and secure, but requires no excessive force. Same applies to the motherboard-end connectors, with the 24 pin one going in easily even on the first insertion. The SATA and 4-pin molex connectors are still fairly tight, but no worse than any others I’ve experienced (and that 4-pin molex is just a hideous, hideous design to begin with).
I had hoped that the G2 would be using the same connectors as the leadex, just without the LEDs, but it sounds like this isn’t the case.
That’s funny. I haven’t had
That’s funny. I haven’t had any issues with the cables or connectors. They’re super flexible, silicone even, and the “plastic shit” connectors make a good, solid, tight connection without having to do any forcing or any of that ridiculousness. I don’t expect them to break anytime in the lifespan of this PSU, not very easily anyway. The SATA power cables fit perfectly and weren’t difficult to connect what-so-ever.

Hi, I’m a bit of a newbie to this, or I can’t read lol, but does this PSU come with a 4-pin molex power connector? (I will use it for the NZXT Hue+ which uses a 2-pin male molex connector for power). I will need it to have power directly from the PSU, so will I be able to do this straight out of the box?
