The Seasonic Focus GX line got an upgrade to meet the strict ATX v3.1 and PCIe 5.1 requirements, and in today’s review I will look at the model with 750W max power.
The Seasonic Focus GX-750 V4 ATX v3.1 is (or will be) included in my best ATX v3.x & PCIe 5.x PSU picks article.
Seasonic recently updated its popular Focus GX line, making it compatible with the ATX v3.1 and PCIe 5.1 standards. The line consists of three models with capacities ranging from 750W to 1000W. All have compact dimensions, with 140mm depth. Despite the small dimensions, Seasonic fit a 135mm diameter fan to keep noise output low. Seasonic also talks about the OptiSink design, which brings a new PCB layout to the Focus V4 units, aiming to increase reliability by improving heat dissipation and airflow. According to Seasonic’s claims, the latest PCB design offers an eightfold increase in heat dissipation, keeping the operating temperatures low and increasing the PSU’s reliability.

Any news about the 750w protection features?
I think you were right and a lot of people who read your review are wondering if the retail 750w model should be considered when making a purchase.
Thanks a lot for all the amazing work.
Would you consider testing the Super Flower Zillion FG ATX3.1/PCIe 5.0 power supplies? I’ve recently stumbled across them as they are currently on sale and was wondering if they were good.
Aris you should review the SuperFlower Leadex III ATX3.0
