Corsair CX750 (2017)

[Eric10543]

I am in need of a new power supply and I saw this PSU on Newegg. It is exactly what I need: 750W, at least 80+, doesn't have to be modular, below 120$. My current power supply, the EVGA 100-N1-0650-L1 is not desirable and I was fooled by thinking that its 650W advertised power is not enough. I am not proficient enough in PSUs to check whether the CX750 (2017) is ok for my system.

 

My Specs:

Amd Ryzen 5 3600, Asus TUF GAMING X570-Plus Wifi, 16gb Team T-Force Delta RGB @ 3200 mhz CL 18, XFX Radeon RX 5700 XT THICC III Ultra, 1x Intel 660p 512gb NVMe SSD, 1x 2tb Seagate Barracuda Compute.

 

Any advice would be very much appreciated.

You'd be spending too much for a Bronze rated, non-modular PSU. The CX is good but it's usually picked when the budget doesn't allow for a nicer option.

I would get a TX550M or RM550x instead, you don't need 750W for your system, unless you're planning on going Crossfire (which you shouldn't).

the cx is decent. but you wond need more than 450w psu. a decent 550w psu will do (like corsair txm 550w)

Thank you for the recommendation! I think I'll go with the TXm when it comes in stock. It is a lot better for not much more money. Again, thank you!
