Value and Conclusion

  • The Antec TP-750C retails for $109.99.
  • Delivered full power at 45°C
  • Tight voltage regulation on all rails
  • Efficient
  • High build quality
  • Full set of protections
  • Hold-up time was in spec
  • Five year warranty
  • Six PCIe connectors along with a lot of peripheral connectors
  • Ripple suppression wasn't up to Seasonic standards (but it can in no way be called bad)
  • Noisy operation at high loads
Antec and Seasonic make a good team, and the TP-750C is great proof. Although ripple suppression didn't meet my expectations since all Seasonic units are usually ripple-proof, this PSU still performed pretty well by achieving high efficiency throughout its entire load range and tight voltage regulation on all rails, and it easily managed to deliver 110% of its maximum-rated capacity at a very high operating temperature. Many of you probably won't fancy its non-modular design, but there was unfortunately no other way to lower its final price without compromising on build quality and performance. The TP-750C is a great choice if you don't care about modular cables and don't mind its increased noise output under heavy load, since it practically plays game in the same category as many of the top-tiered Gold- and Platinum-certified 750 W units while costing significantly less. It is also one of the few PSUs in its category with six PCIe connectors, which is useful if you want to participate in the recent mining craze.

To sum up, the TP-750C features good overall performance, is backed by a long warranty provided by a major PSU company, and I only found high quality components, like Rubycon and Nippon Chemi-Con capacitors, inside its enclosure, with the cooling fan provided by ADDA, a highly respected fan manufacturer. The TP-750C also costs only a little over 100 bucks, which has it easily achieve a high price/performance ratio that renders it ideal for a system in need of a strong and reliable power source for up to three VGAs (not incredibly power-hungry VGAs, though).
