It has been ages since I last saw a Corsair PSU featuring RGB lighting. For many years now, this brand didn't seem to care much about RGB lighting for PSUs, but the increased demand for it apparently has had them reconsider by offering this option for those who even want their PSU to glow! The new CX-F line looks interesting, and I like the option to select from among a black or white finish with matching cables. I'm not too fond of the increased price, but look at our list of pros and you will figure that you get what you pay for. The RGB circuit must have also added to the cost. At the risk of sounding like a broken record across PSU reviews, do take your PSU purchase seriously—look at it as an investment. Your PSU powers your system parts, is responsible for them, including your expensive GPU and CPU, so you should not save on cost too severely when it comes to deciding on which one best suits your needs.

The CX750F performs well enough overall. It might be in the lower half in our corresponding chart, but only because I listed all popular 750 W units, including higher efficiency ones. The market for Cybenetics ETA-S and 80 PLUS Bronze models with such characteristics is not large, which limits corresponding offerings. Before the COVID-19 mess, you could get a higher performing 750 W power supply for just a few more dollars—namely, a Corsair RM750x or Seasonic Focus Plus Gold. As with most items, however, increased shipping costs because of the current situation also increased pricing of most IT products.

Overall, the new Corsair CX750F is a decent choice for every user who fancies RGB lighting, and it will look nice in a chassis that shows off the PSU and doesn't hide it inside a sealed compartment. The whole package would be even more appealing at a lower price, and I would like to see something better than these Teapo SC caps on the secondary side. That said, Corsair backs this model with a five-year warranty, and Corsair is well known for its excellent support. The option to control the PSU's RGB lighting through a compatible motherboard is also a great addition, and for those who are old school, manual button control does offer lots of RGB options as well.
