The product suited me, I will recommend it to my friends.

If I knew in advance that the laces are so short, I would have bought something else. In my opinion, you need to make it 15-20 cm longer.

Pros
  • Very small and light, yet powerful. Runs quietly without load.
Cons
  • The disadvantages follow from the advantages. All trains. are short. I have a small case and a medium-sized motherboard. The length of the 24pin cable was not enough and in order. The length of the site's cables was also not enough even to the basket at the bottom, not to mention the blurry on top. In total, I had to buy 3 extension cords.

I took the second version (it is necessary to choose where it is not indicated on the box in the description at the back, which does not start up to 15%), the first one roars like an airplane above 15% power (in jerks), in the second the revolutions increase smoothly. 3070 + 9600K everything is in overclocking, it pulls without tension (I took it with a margin for quiet operation).

Pros
  • There are no options for such power and price. Quiet - without load (up to 150 watts) it is not audible at all, from above it is also not audible behind the rest of the components (everything is in "silent" mode). Modularity + flat cables, it is more convenient to lay than with "guts".
Cons
  • I would like SFX-L format with a 120mm fan. I took it for 9k, after 2 weeks it fell in price to 8k (who would have known that it would be so). The smell of burnt rubber, rarely, did not understand why, I hope it will not affect the work.

Exactly as promised by the manufacturer, high quality.

An excellent power supply, at least because it is 750/850W in SFX format (not SFX-L, but SFX! ). In my case, with the NR200 case, this was critical due to the size of the video card. The cables are very similar in stiffness and quality to those put by Seasonic in the Focus Plus Gold series. This is the only thing you can find fault with in this PSU. Warranty - 10 years, again like Seasonic. The only thing is that I could not find whose element base was used, but given the 10-year warranty, I

Pros
  • Power of 750/850W in SFX format
Cons
  • Cable stiffness

Very pleased with this purchase, will recommend it to everyone!

I quickly upgraded the fan to a Noctua 92x15 mm PWM fan, attached it to the motherboard as a system fan, and set the speed to approximately 1500 RPM. As a result, I no longer have to worry about my computer overheating, and I don't have any issues with excessive noise.

Pros
  • A condensed and powerful power supply in a space-saving package
Cons
  • With a system that does not have PWM, when the load is applied, the fan starts spinning at full speed but stops almost instantly every 30 seconds.

Everything about the purchase suits me, a very necessary product.

Ryzen 5 5600x with rx 6900 xt flight is excellent, the fan is not audible, the throttles do not squeak. It means that on the BP itself it is quite cute 😉

Pros
  • Sufficiently soft wires, calmly joins the PSU itself and to the hardware. Cable management from this is quite simple.
Cons
  • Price. Well, it already started if you want sff, pay.

The perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

has four 8-pin pcie power connectors, which allows you to assemble a system with an RTX 3080 with it. short, noticeably better than the SFX-L format, but at the same time 850w.

Pros
  • small but powerful. all cables are detachable. the fan spins only after reaching the threshold value for the load. and when viewing YouTube completely stops for silence.

High-quality product, the price corresponds to the quality.

I immediately replaced the fan with a noctua 92x15 mm PWM fan and connected it to the motherboard as a system fan, set it to about 1500 RPM, now I don’t worry about overheating and I don’t experience noise problems.

Pros
  • Powerful power supply in a compact package
Cons
  • The fan in the case without PWM, when loaded, turns on at full power and immediately stops every 30 seconds

It was a terrible purchase, but I wasted my money.

Marriage. It was necessary to assemble a second PC, bought this power supply unit and it did not work from the word at all on two assemblies. In general, I passed it under warranty, bought a similar one, also from a master cooler, but already in ATX format, the same 1v1. The feeling that a very large percentage of marriage from this manufacturer. Both assemblies work perfectly on a power supply from another company 650 sfh format (I will not write the name, I do not want this review to look…

Pros
  • Marriage
Cons
  • Marriage, be careful when buying a power supply unit from a cooler master.

Terrible internal fan curve

After warming up, the fan speed increases from 0 to 100 when the load is over 15%. Completely useless at this noise level in a quiet SFFPC. UPDATE: They got back to me 1 month after I submitted the RMA and let me pay for the return shipping. Keep that in mind when comparing this to the SF750. For now, I would prefer the SF750. UPDATE 2: For those of you stuck with this PSU, I removed the fan, installed a Noctua 92x14mm and routed the cable from the outside to the motherboard connector. That was

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • So far so good

I think the fan curve is fixed?

I JUST received my item on January 29th and I think there is no problem with the fan curve on mine. I have a 3090 and a 5900x and I had to power both my CPU and GPU to actually get the fan to work, which I couldn't even hear. Then after I removed the load, the fan immediately stopped again, which is probably NOT what others are experiencing. I hope others can join this latest edition and confirm that my conclusions are correct. EDIT 2/1/21 - Curve not fixed. Ironically, pushing my CPU and GPU…

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Mostly good but...

I couldn't install internal power supplies

I bought the 750W variant for a small build. Unfortunately, when my GPU booted up, my system showed a black screen without an automatic restart. This was a clear indication that the PSU was defective (confirmed when I replaced it). I don't think Cooler Master makes terrible products, including their power line, but mine was definitely a failure. I wish I had given them another chance, but I really wanted to finish my build and chose another manufacturer instead (I was able to find one that…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • No

So far so good - make sure you get the updated model

. Love the idea of having an 850 watt SFX PSU for my ITX builds. However, I have due to complaints about the 15% fan's semi-fanless curve leading to wild vibrations and noise (e.g. very light loads). Luckily, I finally bought the V850 after hearing that Cooler Master had revised their SFX line of power supplies to fix this erratic behavior. I was still a bit worried that I would get a pre-revision ban. Thanks to Machines & More on Youtube (see video titled "Upgrade fan? Cooler Master SFX Power…

Pros
  • . Practical item
Cons
  • . Cable is shorter than other models.

I don't know why they aren't a standard size now.

Update 2: About a month into the setup and I've used a couple of dB meters to test. I've said before that 750 fans are louder than 650 fans, but I feel like I wasn't paying attention at the time. At idle I have 28-33 dB. It is about 6 inches from the case and contains other components (6 fans and a 3080fe). They're probably louder because I haven't touched my phone's fan curve yet. When I run SW Squads for an hour on the Valve Index at max settings and the highest possible framerate I get 47dB,

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Almost never
