From the manufacturer


More than 20 years of PC performance innovation

Founded in 1994, Corsair has grown from pioneering the high-performance DRAM market to one of the world’s leading providers of enthusiast-grade PC components and peripherals. Our groundbreaking technology and innovation can be found in our high-performance memory, ultra-efficient power supplies, PC cases, PC and CPU cooling solutions, and solid-state storage devices.

Platinum efficiency, fully modular and virtually silent

CORSAIR HX series power supplies give you extremely tight voltage regulation, quiet operation, Platinum-certified efficiency, and a fully modular cable set. Built with all Japanese 105°C capacitors, they’re a great choice for high performance PCs where reliability is essential.

Quiet, efficient operation

80 PLUS Platinum efficiency reduces operating cost and excess heat, and Zero RPM fan mode ensures virtual silence at low and medium loads.

100% Japanese 105°C capacitors

Premium internal components ensure solid power delivery and long term reliability.

Zero RPM Fan Mode

Since the fan doesn’t turn on until it’s needed, you’ll enjoy virtually silent operation at low and medium loads.

Power In Your Hands

Toggle single +12V rail or multi +12V rail mode. In the “SINGLE” position, the full output capability of the power supply’s +12V rail is available to any and all connectors, while in the “MULTIPLE” position, each individual connector has Over-Current Protection so no more than 40A of current can be delivered on any given cable.

Saves you money in the long run.
While I was updating my PC with a new CPU, motherboard, water cooler and RAM, I decided to upgrade the power supply at the same time. The old supply was perfectly, but it wasn’t as efficient as it could be. That’s why I went for this one, it’s 80 Plus Platinum rated.Does efficiency make any difference? Yes, to your wallet. They are more expensive to buy to start with but will save money in the long run. Electricity is not cheap nowadays and if you are an inefficient power supply, then you are pouring money down the drain and also possibly harming the environment more than you need to.This is the first time that I’ve bought a modular power supply. Supplies with fixed leads can either have too many leads for your application or not have enough. It’s a fine balance. Having a mass of unused leads can be a headache to hide away and not having enough means adding adapters and everything becoming a mess.This supply come with a bag full of leads and I mean a full bag! There is a range of motherboard leads, leads with SATA power plugs, and leads with the older Molex plugs. You only need to plug in the ones you need into the power supply, making tidy installations more possible.What can be a little unnerving is that the built-in cooling fan only starts up when needed. As I type, I can see that the power supply temperature is currently 35°C, and the fan is off. The system is drawing around 60-70W at the moment. How do I know this? Well, that’s the great feature of this power supply, it has a USB port on it that can supply all this information and more. You just need a spare USB2 header plug on your motherboard. You can download software from Corsair to read this information but I use AIDA64 software which is also compatible.Overall, this power supply is not cheap, but it is of the highest quality and will save you money in the long run.

So for my recent PC build, I initially picked up and installed Corsair’s Builder Series CXM 750W PSU to power the whole system. It’s a neat semi-modular PSU that’s sufficient for my needs. However soon after installation and benchmarking I was hearing coil wine from my system. I thought it was my graphics card at first, but then after further investigation realised that in fact the power supply was emitting a loud wine when the graphics card was under load. This, and an over loud fan, prompted me to return the CXM 750W power supply after a few days.
I decided to stick with Corsair and go for their Pro Platinum Series, HX750i 750W power supply. And I’m very happy with it.
It came well presented with the power supply packed in a velvet bag and well protected in it’s snug fitted foam packaging. You also get a nice back for all the cables… this is handy for storing the cables that you don’t use. And you get plenty of tie straps, screws, a cable grip, and the instructions.
Installation is simple, it’s an ATX PSU. But I will say that plugging in some of those cables is tough; so it might be better to plug in the cables you need before securing the power supply in your machine.
I’m not going to go into detail about wattage and amps, it’s not necessary. This will easily power my set up and will easily run a second 980 G1 Gaming in the future and it’s most efficient between a 40-50% load @ 93%. And being as it’s a Corsairs HXi series PSU, you get Japanese capacitors rated for 105’C, zero RPM fan mode technology, and Corsair’s Link Digital support where you can monitor its performance and control fan speed in the desktop. The software will actually give statistical information from other sensors in your system, including case fan speeds and CPU & GPU temperatures.
You get all the usual connectors here with the Link Digital link added. This connects to a spare USB header on your motherboard. And for those that are a little paranoid there is a button to test the fan is functional, although Corsair do clearly state the zero RPM fan speed technology.
The software is useful giving you 5 tabs that show you information in different ways. I feel it could be made much simpler though. The tab that I like is the Power tab. This shows you how efficient the power supply is, gives you voltage & amp readings for the three major rails, fan speed, and temperature. The information here will surprise a lot of people that think they need more watts than necessary.
If you need a robust, reliable, and modular PSU that you can rely on, then the HXi series supplies from Corsair are hard to beat. It’s efficient, quality components ensure long life and server grade reliability, silent, and comes with some neat software that will keep the nerds happy.

This '80 plus platinum' rated PSU is great - and also a TIER ONE on the community tomshardware PSU rating list. I urge you to seek this list out yourself to look at your best options and never buy one blindly - the PSU is always overlooked and it's responsible for the wellbeing of all your components. If it goes, it needs to not take everything else with it.
My previous one was a Corsair CX750 which is neither modular nor up to anything strenuous (Tier 4 of 5), also only "80 plus bronze", and given how often I have it switched on, it was time for an upgrade.

After seeking a really power efficient and MODULAR PSU (the cable management was finally getting to me), I found an EVGA 850W T2 (Titanium) for ~£190 on ebay (Titanium being the maximum efficiency rating at the time of writing, even over Platinum), but it had horrible coil whine even when idle. First time i've ever had that :( I'm currently in the process of sending this back, and it's a shame because it was very sleek, much like this Corsair model.

but my point is - with this PSU, I get the power efficiency I wanted (platinum and titanium are pretty much the same efficiency which is of course load-dependent) at £60 cheaper, AND I don't have to put up with that annoying chirping because Corsair are actually capable of glueing their parts together properly! ;)

Pros:
+ Fully modular with testing port
+ I experienced no coil whine, YMMV
+ "80 plus Platinum" efficiency rating (~92% at optimal load)
+ Good price over other platinum models
+ The wires are more flexible than an EVGA model for bending around the case
+ Tier one PSU - comes with all the benefits therein (for example: Haswell certified, meaning they can cope with the C6 and C7 sleep states of 0.05Amps without triggering the under-current protection switch)

Cons?
- Unlike EVGA, the fan doesn't have an 'eco' switch option, the fan is set to automatically spin when needed (under high load)
- Accompanying paperwork e.t.c in box doesn't look as flashy as EVGA's, but it's the unit that counts.

Thank you, Corsair!

This power supply arrived today and I fitted it a few hours after I got it. It took about 30 minutes to fit. I used it to replace a 650w semi modular psu. This new unit is more powerful in preparation for a new graphics card and also to provide smoother power delivery for the whole system.

Good:
Very quiet, silent even as there's no fan movement at anything that I've used it for yet.
As mentioned, smoother power delivery and sufficient supply for the system; water cooled CPU, 5 fans in total, 4 drives (NVME M2, SSD, 2 * hdd's), external sound card, etc..
Sufficient power for a new RTX 2080 ti or something similar (currently GTX 980ti).

Not so good:
Has 'high quality' cables which have capacitors built in (type 4) which were replacing the older cables (type 3). These new cables are very hard to bend in places as the capacitors make them stiffer. The capacitors are a good thing except that it's difficult to get the cables to fit just how you want them to. The 8 pin power cable to the motherboard was particularly difficult to fit. In the end I unplugged it from the psu and fitted it to the motherboard then threaded it back to the psu.

If I was buying another I might go for the HX850i or similar so that I could use the Corsair link software for monitoring and tweaking though I understand the HX850i comes with the older type 3 cables so might want to upgrade these. The prices of both HX850 and HX850i are similar (about £10 more for the HX850i).

Very happy, easy enough to fit, silent running and would buy this or similar again.
