Default Connector on my PSU broke :(

So my trusty A-Power PSU has been powering my rig fine... after adjusting some crap inside my case, on of the molex connections breaks right off... Well, it's my birthday, so i got this as a replacement.

I know it's not the best but it's only temporary, I'm planning on getting a corsair PSU at xmas time.

Anyway, here is the PSU:

Tell me what you think. My personal opinion is that it's the same as my current PSU with more watts and plugs

It will run your system fine, but realise that 860W has the same amperage on the 12V+ rail as a OCZ StealthXStream 500W. :/

Yeah i won't be running SLI or anything, so it should be all good. The main reason i got that one over another of the ones i already have is because it has 6/8 pin connectors for GPU's. Right now i'm using 2 molex plugs and an adapter for my GPU.
