Coolmax is trash. We get low power ones for around 12-15 bucks. I wouldn't install that in any computer with more than an integrated chipset and a single hard drive.
The rating is most likely peak power, therefore it's absolutely certain that it will never sustain 750w for more than a short instant (milliseconds). Forget about continuous 500w.
As far as methodology goes, I agree that testers need more sophisticated tools, like load testers. It's just not worth making a review in other conditions, might as well stare at it for a hour and see if anything abnormal happens. :/
