Corsair SF750 (2024) ATX v3.1 PSU Review

Average Noise

The average noise output is lower than that of the other 750W and 850W SFX units, and it is compatible with the Intel ATX v3.0 and v3.1 specifications. As expected, the SF750 is the quietest member of the new Corsair SF line.

Fan Noise & Speed Maps @ 28-32 °C

[115V] The fan’s noise remains low as you don’t stress the minor rails, even if the load at 12V reaches 360W. If Corsair had kept the maximum combined power on the minor rails at 100W, the unit’s average noise output would have been notably lower. The 30 dBA mark is passed at around 500W at 12V, while with more than 585W at the same rail, the fan’s noise exceeds 35 dBA. In all cases, the fan’s noise remains below 40 dBA.

As you will notice from the CL_Fan_Speed graph, the fan’s passive operation doesn’t last long. On the contrary, it only lasts for a short period because, during these tests, I gradually apply full load on the minor rails, steadily increasing the load at 12V during every minor-rail load circle. This specific load pattern is the worst possible scenario for this platform, but from the moment its official power specs mention 130W max combined load on the minor rails, I must follow them. Although the fan spins between 400-600 RPM at a light and moderate 12V load and with the combined load on the minor rails remaining below 90W, its output noise is still low, below 6 dBA.

  1. I do apologise, there’s not much information right now but for clarity, the landing page for the updated sfx psus state as such…
    sf750 – 2x pice 8 pin cables
    sf850 – 3x pice 8 pin cables
    sf1000 – 4x pice 8 pin cables
    Can you confirm that the new sf750 actually does include 3x pice 8 pin cables?
    This is a concern for me.

    1. It has two 6+2 pin cables, as I have in the cable description table, and one 12+2 pin.
      I found that there was a typo in the general specs list, fixed it.

    2. Can confirm my retail unit comes with only 2 x 8(6+2)pin cables, and that cables are singular they don’t have pigtails like the old unit. If you need more than two 8pin for your GPU like for higher end factory overclocked RX 7000 units you need to get SF850.

      Personal opinion: even in the old unit those pigtails power generally doesn’t provide good enough power for long term use and also it is generally accepted convention to not using pigtails for powering many pinned GPU. I guess corsair can get a pass not providing pigtails this generation as it will reduce user error and we are moving forward to using new 12V-2×6 standards anyway (side note: these new SF cables are very good and flexible even better than the old generation, this is especially valuable for SFF build with tight cable management restriction)
