So I just purchased a new case and along with that case I bought a new cpu cool which is the corsair h100i since it's nice for cable management now, I just need a power supply that is good for cable management, I'm pretty bad a managing cables but I want to start getting decent at it, so my question is, what is a good power supply that is modular and 600w or more for around 100 usd, it does not need to be fully modular, I just want one that will be good for cable management.

Mobo: Gigabyte 970A-DS3P
CPU: AMD FX 8320 @4.2ghz
CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i
GPU: EVGA GTX 960 ti FTW 2GB
Case: NZXT h440 mid tower
Boot Drive: Samsung 240 GB SSD
Storage: Seagate 350 GB HDD and a samsung 340 GB HDD (I am upgrading)
RAM: Corsair Vengance 4x2 GB DDR3

Performance (40% of the final score) - you probably already know what I'm going to say here. Voltage regulation was excellent, averaging 0.9% in the hot box. No points deducted. Efficiency was a pass for Gold both times. No deduction. Ripple control was amazing, and...

Performance (40% of the final score) - you probably already know what I'm going to say here. Voltage regulation was excellent, averaging 0.9% in the hot box. No points deducted. Efficiency was a pass for Gold both times. No deduction. Ripple control was amazing, and probably the best I've ever seen, so definitely no deduction there. I saw no issues with anything else, so this unit gets a 10 here.

Functionality (20% of the final score) - this unit gets everything right. Even the CPU cable, which I thought was terrible on the 650W, is done right here today. Semi fanless mode works well, the manual is decent, we got lots of connectors to power anything a 550W unit should power, and the box came with more goodies than I tend to expect with such a small unit. 10.

Value (20% of the final score) - you can get one of these for $84.99 at Newegg right now. That's a fair bit for a unit this size these days, but as always EVGA is right at the bottom of the cost pile when it comes to 80 Plus Gold and full modularity. The nearest competition is their own 550W GS unit at one dollar more money. This is nuts. How are you making any money on these, EVGA? 10.

Build Quality (20% of the final score) - oh, snap... EVGA just got another perfect total score. There's nothing wrong with this unit. Nothing. 10.
