I bought this to go in my O11D Mini case and its perfect. Very low noise level and the modularity helps massively with building in a smaller computer. The build quality is very solid and the internals are rated very highly as well. Recommended.
Excellent quality. Needed a new psu to go along with a new more power hungry gpu. Comes with so many cables that I now have spare for another corsair psu for a 2nd build
A friend of mine built a good computer, but installed a used power supply that fit the parameters, but within a week it burned out, since the video card consumed a lot of electricity. Unfortunately, one stick of expensive memory burned out.
I bought this new power supply and have had no problems with my computer for over a year now
Great psu but you should know what to expect when buying with Corsair, got it to go with a white build which is funny as the bit in the case I can see needed to be black but I didn’t think of that before I bought the PSU. My bad, but it works super well which is to be expected and have had no crashes or any instability in anyway, paired with a ryzen 9 5900x and a rtx 3060.
When I upgraded my GPU to a 3060 my PC was no longer able to provide adequate power so I had to also upgrade my PSU. I believe I had a 450w PSU before. My PC is now completely silent almost all of the time, even during gaming. It also doesn’t even feel warm to the touch, doesn’t blow out much warm air. I don’t know how, but the combination of a 3060 with this PSU seems to be a dream team for my rig. I couldn’t be happier right now. I’ll probably have to upgrade again in a couple of years to a 4x series card, but even then I think this PSU will do just fine.
The PSU arrived earlier than promised (despite it being Christmas) and in good condition . The unit appears well-made and has the advantage of the cables being ‘plug-in’ to the PSU, which means that all the cables that I don’t need don’t have to be installed. Installation was therefore very easy.
The main problem is that my motherboard has a 4-pin 12V power supply connection as well as the massive main connection, but the cables provided are for 6- or 8-pin sockets. Some connection guidance was provided on the box but it took an internet search to discover that an 8-socket connector on one end of the cable is in fact 2x4pin connectors clipped together (thanks to a Tom’s Hardware reader who guided me to a Crucial webpage for this information). The connector clip is tiny and needed tweezers to compress its jaws and release the two 4-socket parts.
Other than that, I have tested the PSU on another mobo (one with an 8-pin 12V auxiliary supply connection) and it works fine although so far I have only been able to test it at <450W load.
I built a brand new PC from scratch for playing games and occasional media work around 5 years ago with top of the line components and that included an 800w Corsair PSU. I’ve since replaced all components in that PC and now I’m doing an upgrade that’ll require a PSU upgrade.
The GTX 960 4GB was easy stuff for the PSU to handle but now I was gonna ask it to handle a 3080ti 12GB and a 16 core i7-13700k and there’s no way it’d run consistently so I’m upgrading to 1kw finally.
I’ve installed and tested the PSU and am happy to say it’s working great and so far total calculated power draw at maximum usage (GPU & CPU 100% load) is comfortably below the headroom I now have. Voltages are accurate and conveniently this new PSU is smaller, lighter, and more powerful than the old.
I highly recommend this psu if you’re having crashes with a high power computer due to insufficient watts. They’re not cheap when they’re in the 1kw tier but at least the price doesn’t seem to vary much.
Plenty power for my rtx4080/78000x3d system. Good selection of cables. Good finish and build quality with only one niggle. The fan is noisy, it has a buzzing, rattling iritating noise when it starts up. If you have a high power draw system I think you will notice this more. It should have had a quiet fan switchable option like others in this price range as the constant stopping and starting makes the noise more noticeable.
Only four stars as at this price, the fan should be silent.
My first one lasted 10 months and then my GPU started blacking out. Changed all the cables etc and then bench tested everything. PSU had to be at fault. It was supplying power but maybe not enough. Amazon agreed return and refund so I sent old back and bought a new one. Ordering the White 750 I got a Black 750e. Not really sure whether the e is an upgrade or downgrade but I can live with the colour. GPU bounced back to life immediately.
I like the PSU, modular is good as I can keep cables to a minimum and it feels nice and solid. I cant really fault it other than the fact that the first one went bad, however return was hassle free. I liked it that much I bought the same again.
