Exterior Impressions


Upon first glance, there is nothing that really makes this power supply stand out from the competition but there are a few differences which are noteworthy. The size of the RPP 750W is quite small and compact considering it is rated at an outstanding 900W of peak output; it is actually the exact size of the FSP 400W I tested sometime back. Most of the real-estate is taken up by the top-mounted 120mm intake fan which has a brushed aluminum Cooler Master logo on its central hub. It is also good to see that all of the cables are sleeved all the way into the metal housing.

The back of this Cooler Master unit has the standard metal exhaust grille, power switch and input connector. There is a distinct lack of an input voltage switch due to it being equipped with active PFC.


Unlike many power supplies, this one has a light in the back which illuminates to tell you when the unit is turned on. Other than that, it is business as usual on the back-end of the Cooler Master Real Power Pro.

The finish on the exterior of this Cooler Master power supply is a gloss black that is a literal magnet for fingerprints and scratches. For some reason, this finish is becoming more and more common on modern power supplies and I have to say, I’m not a fan. While it looks stunning after taking it out of the box, that lush finish will be marred with scratches in no time. If you do have a power supply here is a bit of a tip if you find it scratched (which you will): use some automotive wax to buff out some of the cosmetic blemishes.
