Single rail vs multi rail can be a much more significant difference.

My modular PSU has lasted 2 years and been disconnected/reconnected countless times on many different setups. Rails are still stable at 12.08V which is exactly what they were when I bought it.

^i agree. My 620hx is great.

Plus I'm kinda a fanatic when it comes to wire management so it works well for me.

Also since the cables are pre-painted, it saves me the time of having to sleeve them.
