LEPA Gold Series 750W Power Supply Review
Final Thoughts and Conclusions
The LEPA Gold 750W power supply proved to be a very good unit. It produced excellent voltage regulation with very good AC ripple suppression and meets the 80 Plus Gold criteria for efficiency. It comes with a good assortment of both fixed and modular cables and can even operate in silent, Low-Power-Fanless-Mode when operating below 15~20% output.
The LEPA Gold 750W PSU is currently available and typically sells for $139.99 (Newegg.com, November 2012).
Strengths:
• 750W continuous DC output
• Excellent voltage regulation
• 80 Plus Gold efficiency across a broad range of loads
• Very good AC ripple suppression even at 100% load
• Silent, fanless operation at low power levels (=15%)
• Single +12V output can deliver up to 62A/744W
• Four PCI-E connectors (6/8-pin) and dual EPS12V connectors
• Active PFC with universal AC input
• Ribbon style modular cables

Seems like a very reasonably priced contender in the 750W range of 80+ Gold PSUs. Have to say that because of this review I certainly would consider it as a replacement or upgrade [situation-pending]. & Thanks for the review.
The cooling is ridiculous inside this one. The fan has to spin quite fast even at moderate load.
Add the fact that the fan itself is complete crap and you get one of the loudest PSU i've ever heard... It's louder than an overclocked GTX570.
I'm really considering voiding my warranty just to change the fan and those cooling plates if the screws are accessible.
The screws ARE extremely easily accesable... to change the PSU fan, ALL you need to do is to unscrew 4 screws and take out the shroud... though, BE careful with that. Make pretty damn SURE you discharge the capacitors before you open up your unit. There's deadly charge can that be hidden behind those two big primary capacitors.
