0:00 so today I'll be unboxing and having a quick look at a Corsair power supply
0:04 it's not particularly new or particularly exciting from like a from a
0:09 feature standpoint but what it is is it's a rock solid power supply at a good
0:14 price I mean okay so yeah like I said it's not glamorous but that's what
0:19 Corsair is known for they're known for delivering solid power supplies that you
0:23 know aren't particularly flashy looking or you know have a bunch of you know
0:32 stuff they made up on the front Okay it's a good power supply at a good price
0:35 and I've totally run out of things to say already look at that okay so here's
0:39 the connectors you got a 24 pin connector you've got an 8 Pin EPS
0:42 connector four PCI Express 6 plus2 pin connectors eight SATA eight Molex and
0:48 two floppy just the right mix for a 750 W power supply considering what you'd be
0:52 plugging into it then on the other side of the Box you've got the general specs
0:56 so this is a single 12vt rail power
1:00 supply so that's a 60 amp 12vt rail a lot of people like to see that and it's
1:04 a No Nonsense sort of approach in terms of noise level you can see that the decb
1:09 are rated on a curve you can check out these graphs on Corsair.com as well
1:12 here's your efficiency graph so this
1:15 is not 80 plus certified as far as the
1:18 box is concerned I had thought it was it has a 5-year warranty from Corsair and
1:23 let's get to what's inside the box so first you got your user's manual okay so
1:27 that includes some general information about the unit itself
1:30 and then you've got your packing foam okay it comes in a nice little velvety
1:35 bag that's kind of a nice touch okay we'll get to the power supply unit
1:39 itself in just a moment here though you've got just a standard three-prong
1:43 power connector you've got some cable ties for organizing your cables because
1:47 this is a non-m modular unit then you have a powered by Corsair sticker and
1:51 four black screws to attach the power supply to your case now let's get this
1:55 velvet bag open and then inside there
1:58 you'll find a plastic bag and inside the
2:01 plastic bag you will find the TX 750 W
2:06 power supply so it has A35 mm cooling
2:09 fan and you can kind of see the guts of the unit itself in there on each side it
2:13 has TX 750 watt and kind of a orangey
2:17 orangey colored logo then on the top you're going to find your general specs
2:21 again which are also on the side of the box and at the back you see just your
2:25 onoff switch power plug and then a honeycomb Grill now the connectors
2:30 themselves one thing that Corsair does again it's part of their you know sort
2:33 of non-nonsense approach is they've always got reasonably long cables
2:37 attached to their power supplies so every one of these cables is going to be
2:42 nice and long so that means you could potentially use it in an 800d case which
2:46 I'm sitting next to a a skid of okay so
2:49 the connectors as I outlined before we
2:54 have where all my PCI Express we've got
2:57 4 six plus two pin PCI Express we've got got an 8 Pin EPS bunch of Molex bunch of
3:02 SATA and the cameraman's telling me we're running out of time thank you for
3:05 checking out my unboxing and overview of the TX750 Watt
