The TX750 V2 is another great power supply from Corsair which is a big improvement over the predecessor. Not only does the supply look fantastic with the stylish and durable matt paint, but the overall design implementation is first class.
The internal components have all been carefully selected to ensure long term stability, with capacitors all rated to 105c. Our tests have highlighted that the cross loading and output regulation is stellar and the ripple results are excellent, a somewhat common trait of Corsair selected designs.
The noise levels are also good, until they are pushed to the limits of power output, when the fan works overtime to keep the temperatures within specification. That said, it is not practical to be running a power supply within the top 10% of its power output on a regular basis.
Unlike the AX power supplies, the TX range has a focus on hitting mainstream price points. The TX750 retails for £96, identically priced to the original design, offering excellent value for money. The 80 Plus Gold certified AX750W by comparison costs £133 inc vat.
KitGuru says: Combines fantastic build quality with great performance results and a 5 year warranty.
As good as it is, for 35 quid more, you can get the AX750 with gold certification, better internals, and modular cabling. seems a better deal to me.
seems like a good PSU. I have noticed that corsair really dont seem to make any of their products however. this is a seasonic design. they worked with asetek before and their speakers are made by an outside company too. They are great at selling the right partners equipment 🙂
ADATA make their SSDs also 🙂
I have their original TX unit still, worked well for me over many years. its in my server.

Just to add some detail here, we do work with engineering and manufacturing partners, because we don’t have manufacturing facilities for some products in-house, but that’s not the same as just adding a Corsair label to an OEM product. With PSUs, we define the spec, and in many cases upgrade the basic design, and our partners build to the spec our engineers define. This is the same for audio – the headsets and speakers are in-house Corsair designs.
I just thought it important to make that distinction 🙂

Corsair.
Its a huge improvement over the older design, without question. nice one.
I love their designs, always look so classy. I bought the headphones you reviewed here a few weeks ago, and they are bloody marvellous.
just ordered one, thanks for the review.
ordering one tomorrow.
