Overview: EVGA 750 G2 /w NEX650G

[Rheinwasser]

Short Introduction
 
This is a short overview over the EVGA 750 G2 since i couldn't find anything about it when i bought my new psu. I got this powersupply after RMAing my NEX650G, also from EVGA. I am currently using my old CX500M. Also, don't tell me that 750 watts is to much wattage, but this unit is not available in lower wattages.
Don't expect any professionalism! I am taking pictures with my D5100 with an Sigma DC 18-125 1:3.8-5.6 HSM.
 
I apologize for my bad english skills, I am not an native english speaker.
 
Packaging & accessories

In the box there is included:

- the powersupply packed in nice soft foam.

- a bag the psu is in.

- an manual which i actually really like! nice illustrations and step by step installation guide.- all the modular cables which use different types of twist types which i find weird. on the NEX650G they were held together with velcro strips with an evga logo which i liked more.

- a molex to floppy connector.

- a bag for all the unused cables.

- a power cord. its a power cord. its 1.5 meters long.

- some delicious silica gel.
- a 24 pin jumper. this is quite handy in my opinion, no more paperclips!
- four black screws. in the manual q&a they answer the question why there are more than four screw holes but only four screw holes but there are actully only four screw holes which is a little bit funny.
- four cable management velcro strips.

 

 

 

 

 

Nice looking box!

 

 

Has nothing to do with a powersupply, but hey, why not.

 

 

EVGA logo on the other side.

 

 

Sorry, I already opened it once!

 

 

Nice design in the box!

 

 

80+ Gold is pretty decent.

 

 

The manual for the two psu's.

 

 

hmm!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Like to see this!

 

 

Screws. Black screws. Four black screws.

 

 

Black velcro strips, always usefull!

 

 

If you are like me, you have like 37 of these laying around in some corner.

 

 

Bags are also always usefull.

The powersupply

 

I really like the overall look of this powersupply. The finish is very textured and looks great. They rounded the edges and removed the handles from the last generation. They also improved the fan grill which was screwed on the last time which would have probably made it easier to replace the fan but it did look worse. I am also not sure how much airflow this design allows and how much air turbulence it will create.

 

The modular interface is pretty self-explainatory, looks great and it very functional. I think it uses pretty standard plugs, that means that you could probably buy normal vga connectors, remove the clip and make you own cables from scratch this way.

 

Also the zero fan mode is great too see, also the switch is pretty handy, but this needs to be tested in the next few days.

 

 

The fan grill. It looks good, but it is not too solid.

 

 

Again the top of the unit. I really like the finish of it!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Advertised features. I will have to test the fan once it is in use, i will update the thread then. The fan on my NEX650G was horrible loud.

 

 

Nice to see this on the box, but i think the graph is pretty bad.

 

 

 
The cables
 

The main reason why i got my 650G was the cables. So is it for my 750G2.

All the cables are black, including the connectors. On the 650G the vga cables were red, I liked it but i think not everybody does so i think this is the better solution. But the cables are not flat, they are sleeved with pretty high-quality sleeving. The heatshrink and the cable ties used below it are not really optimal, but it keeps down cost and doesn't look too bad. 

The advantage of these cables are that they are easier too cable-manage imo and if you want to you can sleeve them yourself later on.

 

 

The box the cables come in.

 

 

One of the vga connenctors.

 

 

All the stuff included

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This also could be improved.

 

 

Oh god. Everything should be SATA and ATX.

 

 

Speaking of SATA.

 

 

The sleeving job on the other cables i pretty acceptional but this is not great. Not at all.

 

 

Didn't they have enough sleeve in the factory?! What the fuck.

 

 

Come on, is this necessary?

 

Mini-Conclusion

 

This is kind of a mixture between the 650G, the 1300G2 the 1500 Classified and all the other psu's in EVGAs line-up.

I think for around 100€ this i a psu, i would recommend. It is not perfect, but if you need the features it offers it is the psu for you!

 

If you have any questions on it, ask me i will try to answer them as good as i can!

 

And: Dear Linus Sebastian, Please review this unit. I would like to know your opinion on this. @LinusTech

Not the best?

It's the best in terms of quality/price. This PSU is based off the leader platform and theyre performing here and there better than Seasonic even.

Kinda have to agree, Linus should unbox this power supply. He's unboxing every new Corsair product when its released, hate that Corsair gets so much attention and such a hype when there are many better options for the price than their products.
