I've been patiently awaiting the release and reviews for the Corsair SF450 Platinum. But I'm an EVGA fanboy and even advocated for them doing proper SFX (not the SFX-L they announced last year). So, I'll also wait for reviews on these to see how they turn out. No public info yet on the actual OEM/platform but I suspect Greatwall, similar to the Corsair SF Gold series.
 
With SFF systems becoming more common, this is a smart segment for EVGA to tap. Even my H200i, which accepts a full ATX PSU, benefits greatly from an SFX PSU. The ATX PSU tends to choke the GPU a bit.
 
Here's a couple of links discussing it:

    Now that I no longer need my internal sound card, I'm ready to switch my main rig from an ATX build to SFX. I'm waiting on their announcement and availability before I pull the trigger on another mess of parts, but we're rapidly running out of days in July for them to do it!

    I too would like to know when these are coming out.  I just got an HP Pavilion and I'm upgrading it.  Unfortunately, the PSU that comes with it does only 180 watts.  I want the 650W GM PSU.

    Hi everyone.  I'd mark your calendars for September.

    It's not me I'm worried about, it's my GPU :p My EVGA GTX 1060 SSC runs in the upper 70s, peaking at 80°. Honestly though, that's well within spec and my only concern is how noisy the fans get.

    Any additional news on this?
     
    Still on target for this month?
    Will it come with braided cables and/or a sfx to atx adapter bracket?

    Typically when a company specifies a month without saying "early, 1st week of, ect.", they mean by the end of said month.
     
    If it's not out by October 1st, that's when we ask for a follow-up :)

    Due to a few delays, the launch has now slid into October.  Ultimately, it's just a short delay from my previous statement (yes, pun intended).
     
    Sleeved cables, and yes, there will be an SFX to ATX adapter bracket included with all models.

    @EVGATech_LeeM I'm curious how quiet these are expected to run, at idle and load? The Corsair SF600 has been one of the more popular SFX PSUs for some time now, but its biggest issue and complaint is the noise, especially as the load ramps up, which has resulted in many people resorting to replacing the fan and voiding their warranty in the process!! This is the main reason I have avoided it myself. Also, having owned the Silverstone SST-SX650-G, I found its 'always on' fan to be rather annoying, so sound levels are obviously something I'm quite sensitive to. How quiet will the EVGA SFX PSUs be?

    Any news on concrete release dates now that we're getting into October? Between this or the Corsair, I'm awaiting the PSUs as the final part of my build. Also am curious regarding the noise as it's the only reason I've avoided the SF600 gold

    No word on noise levels from this? Given it's not been discussed or talked about by EVGA at all, I'm inclined to think it isn't going to be anything special... possibly even quite bad. Reviews will tell all though.

    Review up at Jonny Guru now, looks good! Still waiting on news of UK release though...
     
    It's between this and the SF600 Platinum for me.
