MSI MAG A750GL PCIe 5.0 ATX 3.0 Power Supply Review

MSI has a great range of PSUs to their name these days, and while we’ve already looked at their 1000W and 850W units, today I’m going to be testing one of their more modest units, the A750GL, which comes with a power output of 750W and a price tag of just £99, making it one of the more affordable PCIe 5.0 and ATX 3.0 equipped power supplies on the market, perfect for those aiming for the more affordable and mid-budget modern graphics cards such as the RTX 4070 Super, thanks to the PSU including the latest 12VHPWR power connector, which typically can operate up to 600W, but on this particular unit is rated for 450W, which is spot on for what the RTX 4070 class cards require.

MAG A750GL

The MAG A750GL PCIE5 power supply provides 80 PLUS Gold-certified power efficiency, ATX 3.0 compatibility, and PCIe 5.0 GPU support, cooled by a 120mm fluid dynamic bearing (FDB) fan for superior performance. Outfitted with a full-bridge LLC DC-to-DC topology, an extra-compact ATX frame, and a fully modular design, this PSU is ideal for spatially efficient PCs requiring robust, no-nonsense performance.
