Features:
I'll talk about the overall exterior first before getting into any of it's many features. The entire exterior is made of 2.0mm 6065 super thick anodized rounded aluminum, this is a good choice as aluminum is a fairly decent conductor of heat and will help keep the power supply cool. All sides of the power supply have ventilation holes on the flat areas which don't house other features already.

The Magnum also has very advanced airflow as is seen in some of the interior pictures of the unit. There is an 80mm fan which the manual says remains off if 350W or less of power is being used from the power supply and anything over that it turns on in. The fan itself is super silent, even when it was running I was nearly unable to hear it! The interior is covered in massive blocks of copper which are connected to heatpipes which take the heat to the radiator on the back of the power supply. The raditor sticks 5cm out the rear of the power supply.

On the back of the power suply there is an LCD display with a blue backlight. Yes, you heard me correct, your new power supply has an LCD display on the back of it! This is the first company I have seen ever do this to their power supply! The display shows three major items: power working temperature with alarm, wattage output and 12V output monitor display. These are all very usefull items to see from a high performance power supply and will help you easily keep an eye on how things are working. I only have two minor complaints with this LCD. First is that it should be positioned in a more accessable space, such as the side of the power supply to be read through a case window. Having to pull your PC out to see the screen in the back can be a bit of a pain. And second, I found there to be quite a harsh viewing angle, if I didn't look at the screen in just the right way I was able to see all the digits in the display as opposed to the ones actually being lit up.
