MSI MPG A1000G PCIe5 Power Supply Review

Packaging & Accessories

The box looks fantastic, with a striking black and purple design, a large photo of the PSU right on the front, and some of the key features clearly detailed on the front.

Around the back, there are some clear explanations of key features, such as the ATX 3.0 and PCIe 5.0 support, components used, all the included cables and their lengths, as well as the supported power outputs per rail.

A nice warning about the 12VHPWR cable, so you don’t get it all melty.

The PSU is well protected, with double thick cardboard, two layers of foam, and a protective plastic covering.

There’s a durable protective bag for housing all the cables.

And even then, they’re still sealed in plastic!

All the cables are flat, with the exception of one of the double 6+2 PCIe cables and the 12VHPWR.

All the peripheral cables are flat too, so they’re going to be easy to deal with when doing your cable management.

The 12VHPWR cable is a thicker design too, but looks to be of good quality.
