Epilogue
Silverstone must keep the prices of its Triton Rx models as low as possible if it wants them to succeed in the affordable, mid-capacity, and Gold efficiency market. I am not sure if there are enough users out there who would prefer to save some dollars and go for fixed cables instead of modular ones. Still, the fact is that you don’t lose only on the cables; you will also have to compromise on lower overall performance and increased noise output if you decide to follow the Triton Rx road. The most notable competitor for the Triton 750Rx is the XPG Kyber 750, which achieves notably higher overall performance and is also notably quieter due to its more relaxed fan speed profile.
The unit’s protection features need work. Still, they are adjusted better than the ones in the Triton 850Rx model. This is a significant advantage. Nonetheless, the overall performance of the 750W unit is not as high, mainly due to the increased ripple at 12V and the mediocre transient response on the same rail, which is the most critical. All in all, this is a platform that focuses more on keeping production costs low rather than delivering high performance. The notable feature is that it meets the ATX spec v3.1 transient response and other major requirements. Barely in some aspects (e.g., hold-up time), but it does.
Before investing in a new power supply, read my Best ATX v3.x PSUs article to check all alternative PSU offerings. You help me a lot by using my affiliate links, which don’t increase the price of the product. I receive a commission from Amazon every time you do it, which can make a significant difference for me, especially now that I am working independently, exclusively for my media, rather than for someone else.

Any update for FSP VITA GD, i’ve seen recently had cybenetics logo on box, hope you will review soon because it was the best selling budget psu on my country 😃
once I find the time yes I will review that, too.
