Test – Corsair TX550M – Conseil Config |Specs | Price

Hi all!

Back to Corsair today with their latest power supply, the TX550M! The TX-M range is the replacement of the CS-M that I tested some time ago, with the program an 80Plus Gold certified power supply and therefore having an output largely sufficient for ordinary people, the wiring is also semi-modular like its big sister. Corsair offers the beast around 85 € which makes it an accessible model for those who want a good performance without typing in high-end models, let’s see what this gives in practice!

We take the colors of the brand here on the front with a mixture of black and yellow, there is a photo of the beast accompanied by the name of the model, the 80Plus Gold logos as well as the 7 year warranty and of course the logo of the brand. A small list of strong points is also there, such as the 80Plus Gold certification, 100% Japanese capacitors certified 105 ° etc.

At the rear in addition to another listing of the strong points are the yield curve, that of the ventilation as well as a table of the power distribution, we see that on the 550 Watts for which the beast is sold it is not There is “only” 516 Watts available on the 12V, we are not at the top of the range here.

On the edge a listing of the available connectors, which is always good to know when buying a power supply, at least there will be no surprises!

Inside the box we fall directly on the block wrapped in its bubble bag as well as of course the bundle, thick foam point ensuring safe transport but there should not however be the slightest worry as long as a person don’t jump on the cardboard 😉

At the bundle level we find the instructions for use as well as of course the modular cables, a power cord, plastic cable ties and 4 screws to fix the beast to the box. There is of course everything you need to install the TX500M in a box, no worries.
