Corsair TX750W Power Supply

Cables and Connectors
All of the cable harnesses are nicely sleeved - in black of course. Corsair has a good selection of connectors with eight connectors each for Molex and SATA. Another nice feature is the four 6-pin PEG connectors, all of which can be transformed into an 8-pin PEG connector. This selection of PEG connectors will allow you to run any form of dual graphics card setups with this power supply. In addition, you have a single 12V rail so you don't need to be as concerned with one of the harnesses/connectors rising above 20A power distribution.
In terms of minor nitpicks, it would have been nice if Corsair had included a second 4-pin ATX or 8-pin EPS connector rather than one connector that serves double duty, since some high-end systems might have a need for both of them. However, the vast majority of motherboards will work perfectly fine with the 8-pin connector that you can split in half to function as a 4-pin ATX12V connector.
The length of the cables is superb, and it's nice to see the 60cm graphics cards and ATX connectors. The extra 10cm will help tremendously if you use the power supply in a large full-tower system.
The Fan
Corsair uses a Yate-Loon model number D14BH-12 fan in this power supply.

What, like http://www.anandtech.com/casecoolingpsus/showdoc.a...">our VX450W review? :)spidey81 - Thursday, October 30, 2008 - link
sorry...don't know how I missed that. Thanks for pointing that out! :)Breogan - Thursday, October 30, 2008 - link
The TX line is built both by Seasonic and CWT too: the TX650 is built by Seasonic, while the TX750 is made by CWT.JarredWalton - Thursday, October 30, 2008 - link
That's what we stated with the following, although we didn't explicitly list any models:"Corsair power supplies come from two different ODMs, Seasonic and Channel Well (CWT). Both are very good manufacturers for high-end products, but Seasonic tends to be a more conservative company that doesn't want to grow their business too fast whereas CWT is kind of the opposite and is interested in selling a large number of power supplies through many different companies. Corsair blurs the boundaries between these ODMs, letting the two manufacturers produce different wattages for the same series."

There was a sentence suggesting the TX650 could be also CWT, but I changed it after.Soubriquet - Thursday, October 30, 2008 - link
Thanks for the article, one suggestion for future consideration, it would be interesting to see some of the graphs comparing like for like with with other PSUs.
