Somewhat outdated article (the 12vhpwr connector has gone through a variety of changes due to it being a fire hazard), but it goes into a fair amount of detail on the atx 3.0 standard: https://www.tomshardwar
The 12v2x6 connector on this psu only supports 450w as opposed to 600w power delivery standard on higher wattage units. The msi mag a750gl has a 5 year warranty, rather than the 10 year warranty many higher end units have. A review of this psu can be found here: https://www.eteknix.com/msi-mag-a...ly-review/
I'd consider $70 to be an okay price for a 750w atx 3.0 psu of this performance tier from a major brand if it didn't require jumping through any hoops, but I find it rather hard to justify dealing with the mail in rebate at this price. Additionally, 750w is quite low at this point, and considering how a good psu can last through multiple builds and potentially over a decade of use, I generally recommend spending a bit more for something more "future-proof". Decent 850w atx 3.0 psus can be found for ~$80-$100, and decent 1000w atx 3.0 psus can be found from ~$100-$130.

With an Intel CPU is another story.

now it would barely power a mid range Video Card alone.

Is the connector on the PSU the limiting factor of only 450w being delivered through it? Can I plug in a connector that delivers the 600w?

C-tier, as in crap tier. Hope all that bought one of these have a fire extinguisher nearby.
