Gigabyte Value Modular G750H

Gigabyte enters the power supply market

Gigabyte products are primarily associated with the graphics card and motherboard market for most buyers. However, in recent years, the company has begun to actively spud the gaming market, releasing monitors, mice, headphones and power supplies. Its new power supply, as its name suggests, is the epitome of value — it's one of the most affordable models with an 80+ Gold certification (90% efficiency), a massive 750W of power headroom, and a modular structure (meaning all cables will detach) . Let's figure out if they managed to immediately make a folk power supply.

Impressive power reserve

Let's start with the most important thing: Gigabyte Value Modular demonstrates very good test results, ensuring the correct operation of all output lines with a total load of 980 watts. That is, the power increase is + 31% to the nominal 750 watts. In this case, is it any wonder that a powerful gaming system with an overclocked processor and two 250-watt video cards could not cause voltage fluctuations on the main lines exceeding 2.1% with an allowable ±5%?

Modular structure and quiet cooling system

Among other advantages of the model, we highlight the presence of all basic types of protection (OVP, OPP, SCP), a quiet cooling system with a double ball bearing cooler, and a semi-modular design that will allow you to avoid a mess of wires when assembling the system. Moreover, a system based on this power supply can be built quite powerful: an overclocked Ryzen 2700X BOX with a pair of video cards in CrossFire / SLI mode starts up without problems. Taking this into account, one can only complain about the rather high temperature of the main converter at a long maximum load. Perhaps the engineers should have chosen a more efficient fan, but in this case, sound comfort would have suffered.
