Corsair power supplies are a lesson to many other manufacturers on how it should be done. The paint work is deep and the two tone labels on either side of the chassis look elegant. The paintwork is resistant to fingerprints and is very difficult to mark. As with the AX1200i, we ran a screwdriver down one side of the chassis with a little force and it didn’t mark at all.
The large 120mm fan is hidden behind a black steel grill with the Corsair logo proudly presented in the center. We will have a closer look at the fan later in the review when we open the chassis.
This side of the chassis is honeycomb vented to help improve air flow around the components. At the side is a power switch and connector.
The modular panel takes up almost the full width of the chassis. All of the ports are labeled clearly to ensure the installation phase isn't confusing for an inexperienced user. There is also a self test button and a ‘comm port’ which is used for Corsair Link connection.
The Corsair AX760i can deliver 63.3A to the +12v rail which is enough to power a high end dual card SLI or Crossfire configuration. Total power output is rated to 760 Watts @ 50c ambient temperature.
very nice indeed!
760i is on my next to have list. awesome from corsair again
F’ing marvellous, I was hoping these would be as good as the AX1200i, which no one needs. 850W might be on my ‘to get list’ before the end of year.
platinum is the future ! im quite happy with my older corsair unit, but maybe for my new build in the new year.
classy indeed. id be tempted, especially as my current thermaltake PSU is as loud as a garden strimmer under load. fan must be bollocked in my own.
These are expensive however, but all platinum supplies are, its the nature of the high end game.
ordererd the 750w 🙂
fab indeed. was almost going to get the 1200 earlier this year then my car died and I ended up blowing all my money on that.
these are really good, never heard of flextronics. sounds like a sex aid company
Is there really any benefit from using mult rail or is it just a complete gimmick? I can understand on a 1000W+ maybe, but 760W?
Just bought one. It is a superb PSU and worth the price.
