Is it for US only?

I'm sure newegg would ship internationally, but shipping would probably not be free outside of the U.S.

I'm not selling it. I was looking for PSU's and came across that deal. Personally, I'm looking for 1200W so I passed on the deal, but seems like a good value for others. If you know someone in the U.S., you can see if they'll buy it and ship it for you. However, someone would have to deal with the mail-in-rebate. If there was no mail-in rebate to deal with, I could have helped you out and ordered it to myself and shipped it to you, but I don't want to get stuck not getting the mail-in-rebate or waiting 3mo for it to arrive.

Also isn't 80PLUS Bronze rating kinda terrible?

It's not great, but I wouldn't say terrible. From jonnyguru:

"The XFX Pro 850W is 83%, 85% and 82%, which puts it at 80 Plus Bronze."

A gold would be, at most, +5% efficiency.

xfxforce.com site says: "Fixed Peripheral : up to 7" then "Fixed 6-pin PCI-E : 2"

Anyway, this should be fine for powering a single S5.

Right, but at 850W that 5% adds 13 cents a day at ten cent power, plus the additional 55W of heat needs to be done something with. 60 bucks could get you a Gold-rated 1KW server PSU and not have to screw with a rebate or worry whether or not it had the right cables, since it seems information is pretty contradictory.

60 bucks is decent for an 850W PSU, but you gotta remember you get what you pay for.

The domestic ratings are pretty crummy. There are plenty of industrial PSUs which give us 92-94% which is the main comparison.
