Cooler Master V750 SFX Gold Power Supply Review

A Closer Look

Out of the box, your first impression is taken by just how small the design of this power supply is. Yes, it’s fairly standard for SFF power supplies, but given the pretty high specifications this PSU has, part of you is more than a little surprised Cooler Master has managed to squeeze them into a package this small.

A look at the front shows the main fan which is well situated in a central location. With some branding present, Cooler Master has stuck a good balance here between adding a little promotional material while not detracting from the aesthetic.

The base of the power supply contains a label featuring all of this power supplies technical information. While this will likely mean nothing to the vast majority of consumers, for those of you (like me) to whom this information is relevant, it’s nice to have it clearly displayed in such a convenient location.

The power input bank to the Cooler Master V750 SFX Gold is well organized with each particular section being denoted for it’s use. Admittedly, Cooler Master has used some code here so it’s not entirely intuitive for the novice PC builder. On the whole, however, with it’s well spaced out design, you shouldn’t have any problems inserting or removing the cables you need for your PC.

The rear of the power supply offers a nice and large vented section that should help promote good airflow. While we do often see larger areas vented in more traditional power supplies, the limited size of the Cooler Master V750 SFX Gold hasn’t, at least in our view, compromised anything here.

The sides of the power supply feature a little bit of product branding which is both well placed and, overall, adds well to the aesthetic of the design.

On the whole, the Cooler Master V750 SFX Gold, while small, seems to have an excellent design. While it admittedly doesn’t feature too much in terms of aesthetics, it looks like a very solid PSU with more than a few little touches to make it visually appealing.

Cabling

In regards to the cabling, the Cooler Master V750 SFX Gold certain provides you with a generous quantity and, it should be noted, the cables are of a very decent length. Too often we see SFF power supply comes with really short cables and while this should, in the grand scheme of things, be perfectly fine, it can often limit your success in terms of management.

With the cables also labelled to denote their use, there is absolutely nothing to fault here.

Internals – A Look Inside!

As this is a SFF power supply, in our experience this can often represent a very mixed bag of results. Specifically, when it comes to looking at the internal aspects of the design. Put simply, some can be amazingly cramped with cables weaving through very tight gaps and, in other instances, a little more care has been put into ensuring a good airflow.

Fortunately, the Cooler Master V750 SFX Gold definitely falls into the latter category. Yes, it is still a little bit tight in their, but given the limitations of the size, what Cooler Master has achieved here is a surprisingly clean design.

In addition, as per one of their features aspects of this power supply, we can not only confirm that this PSU features a main Japanese capacitor, but also that it comes from a highly-reputable manufacturer. In addition, with it being rated to 105C, this is about as good as it gets and exactly what you expect to see from a quality design.

Overall Thoughts!

Although it may be small, the Cooler Master V750 SFX Gold is absolutely faultless in terms of it’s aesthetics and design. All going well, these are factors that will translate into some very favourable testing results. There is, however, only one way to find out. Let’s get this PSU hooked up and see what happens!
