It doesn't look any bigger than the other 1KW PSUs I've seen reviews, it differs from most 'large' PSUs by having the fan at one end rather than the middle.
I only hope this encourages others to release Silver (and one day Gold) 80+ PSUs.

its a little extra long like the zalman 1k psu reviewed here.
Also remember, just because its effecient doesnt neccisarily make it quiet. So it may not be suitible for SPCR recommendation, but we'll have to wait till MikeC does a review to see. I'm pretty sure he'll give special attention to the very few PSU's that make an 80plus silver/gold rating.

there will also be a 700W version, which will still be overkill for most PCs out there:)

This is getting kinda silly. So far we've got two oem only 270-275W silver psus and one 900w silver..along with an 800/1000 that are almost silver. Where's the sensible 300-500W psu's that we'd normally get?

Whoa, Enermax is now in the same game as Coolermaster. Huge psu's with 80plus silver. Revolution 850 and 1050W. I guess it's clear we'll have 82+ in the low-mid and 85+ in the high now for enermax.
