Finally a Seasonic PSU with Titanium efficiency to meet the similar spec'd Super Flower Leadex platform eye to eye. Without any serious competition, Super Flower has been dominated the Titanium category, which we believe won't be the case anymore, not once all Prime and Focus units have hit the market. Seasonic is ready to unleash a wide portfolio of products on the market, which will surely make all of its competitors uncomfortable. Super Flower's Leadex platform is one of the best, there is no doubt about it, and there was no need for it to be upgraded or redesigned, but with the new Prime platform emerging, Super Flower should probably push its engineers to design an even better platform.

As per usual for a high-end PSU, the SSR-750TD can deliver its full power at up to 50 °C ambient over prolonged periods of time. All necessary protection features are also present, and there is an FDB fan with a lifetime of 70,000 hours at 40 °C, at least on paper. 70.000 hours might look low compared to the specifications of other FDB fans which usually last well over 100,000, but Seasonic does mention the ambient at which these 70,000 hours apply where other OEMs do not. As you can imagine, the HA13525M12F-Z will last much longer at lower temperatures.

The +12V rail is quite strong, but the minor rails look weak. However, 100 W maximum combined power output on the minor rails is more than enough to cover a modern system's needs. After all, the minor rails can easily deliver much more than these 100 W combined should the need arise since their OCP thresholds are set at over 25 A.

There are enough cables and connectors to cover the PSU's capacity efficiently. All cables are also long enough to avoid any problems during installation into larger cases. However, SATA and peripheral connectors could afford to be further apart to make things easier.

Since this PSU features a single +12V rail, we do not have anything to comment on when it comes to its power distribution.
