    IMO, Phanteks P400A / P500A, Lancool II Mesh, and TD500 Mesh are the top 3.
    Corsair 4000D is okay, but still falls short compared to the ones mentioned above.

    Brand =/= quality either. Had this discussion multiple times in this thread. Brand's have both good, bad, and mediocre PSUs, like the Cooler Master V Platinum, the Cooler Master Elite and Cooler Master MWE V2 Bronze respectively. That PSU you are looking at (from what I can tell) is group-regulated, which isn't something that is good for anything other than budget builds/office PCs

    Apex AG-M: Trash
    Deepcool DQ-M: Great, looks like this, don't confuse with DQ-M-V2L which is mediocre.
    Antec BP750: Never even heard of this model, probably very old. Stay away.
    Raidmax: Seems to be mediocre, same place as DQ-M-V2L
    Huntkey MVP-K: Decent.
    Inwin P75: Seems good for the tech sheet. No reviews though, so can't say if it's good or not.
    Antec EAG EVO: China only PSU, so probably group-reg trash
    Segotep GP-P: Decent, better than Huntkey
     
     
    In terms of quality best to worst:
    Deepcool DQ-M (recommended)
    In Win P75 (no reviews)
    Segotep GP-P (budget pick)
    Huntkey MVP-K (budget pick)
    Deepcool DQ-M-V2L, Raidmax RX-800AE-M
    Antec (BP and EVO), ApexGaming AG-850M (would not touch for anything more than office PCs)

    MrBrightSyde got a reaction from BiG StroOnZ in My 2020 build, suggestions?   
    Well, the RM that you linked is overpriced. The RMx is better and cheaper. Don't think you need the extension cables but that's fine. If you are going to spend $200 on a 2TB SSD, I would get an NVMe, like the Inland QLC. Personally would just get 2x16GB RAM instead of 4x8GB. Also pretty sure you can get the Lancool II Mesh for $20 cheaper from Microcenter (you can order it online).
    So something closer to this:

    MrBrightSyde got a reaction from Sycoblackburn in Do PSUs need regular replacing? Or only if it stops working?   
    In summary, "Buy a good quality PSU and use it until warranty is up, and replace as soon as possible."
     
    That encompasses all warranty lengths at least.

    Well, whichever 3080 you can get your hands on is the version you should get. Now, if you actually had a choice, I heard the ASUS TUF is actually pretty good if you can get if for the same price as the Founders Editions.

    You are a little wrong. They manufacture a wide variety of PSUs, ranging from mediocre (not complete trash though) to some of the best PSUs out on the market. So really, it depends on what specific PSU you would be talking about. For the DP P12,  it's a high quality PSU looking at KitGuru's review on it, though it's still Tier A low priority since it's only a single review.

    MrBrightSyde got a reaction from Moonzy in Case Tier list   
    It would basically be multiple tier lists, based on each of those (plus noise levels). Like you said, difficult to implement and to even maintain since you would have to do tests for all those criteria and be basically staring at spreadsheets most the time after getting the results.
     
    In other words, a case tier list is impractical and nearly impossible unless you only focus on one aspect. Personally, an airflow tier list would be cool (pun intended) but I just use GamersNexus charts at this point since they tend to favor airflow too.

    Hot Take:
     
    1. 3080 10gb models hyped up as $699
    2. 3080 10gb model made in limited quantities, intentionally
    3. 3080 20gb models release more RAM and faster clocks, AIB only, phasing out 10gb models.
    4. 3080 20gb models are $900 for the basic ones, $1100 for the better cooler variants
    5. 3080 10gb models were never intended for mass sale, and were intended to be marketing hype to claim they sold cards for $699
    6. Nvidia laughs to the bank while managing to charge people yet again $1100 for a 2080 ti +20% replacement while claiming it was $699.

    MrBrightSyde got a reaction from OneStop in Old PSU question   
    IIRC it's better than the Cooler Master, about the same quality as the AMP , quieter than the AMP (they use the same fan, but the AMP has a more aggressive fan profile IIRC).

    MrBrightSyde got a reaction from Spotty in Old PSU question   
    I wouldn't use any GPU with it to be honest. 230V only, only 400w on the 12V rail when they call it a "600w" PSU. I would only use it for cheap cards that you don't care about losing. Honestly, I would get a better PSU.
    Well, I wouldn't want PSU advice from you. Imagine using a high-value GPU with a cheap PSU that isn't full-range. It's not even capable of supporting the 2080Ti since it's 2 6 pins, not even 6+2 pin so the connectors wouldn't even work without an adapter.
