The RMX gets my vote, the prime units allegedly have bad transients (but the 750 watt ought to not be an issue due to better OCP limits) and I can't say I know much about that CM unit.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

That is not Corsairs top of the line or even close but it is good enough to work and not give problems up to a 2080Ti and new CPU and OC.  650w is more then enough.  You will have 200watts at least idle when gaming and what not.

They're all fine. You won't need 750w for that build. Should require less than 500w even with overclocking.

Does it matter if it's not the top of the line range?... Are you suggesting they buy an AX1600i instead? :S 

The Focus Plus is not Seasonic's top of the line unit either - That would be the Prime Ultra Titanium range.

The Cooler Master MWE Gold is not Cooler Master's top of the line unit - That would be the MIJ Maker.

RM750x will do. You really don't need 750W though.

Yes, a RMx is only "good enough"....

 

Are you telling me that my computer will explode from having a CX550M with a Vega 64 and i7 8700K????

The RMx is already in the A+ tier of the PSU tier list, the only things that Corsair makes that are higher tier is the AXi series which is probably geared towards SLI/Threadripper systems. The heck are you on about.

none of these are top tier PSUs. not that you need top tier PSUs. the RMx though is the best one of the bunch from what ive gathered.

Not at all, Top of range is 750w gold or platinum all modular.  In idle a normal rig of ours is using 130w idle power.  As soon as you game your using less then 400w power.  Like around 380w average on full load CPU and GPU.  We can say 400 watts max usage to be safe.  So all you really need is a 450w or 500w psu gold certified and your set.  Don't ask me why I bought what I bought for the nice hefty price too.

Top of range is the highest product that manufacturers offer. That would be the AX1600i and PRIME Ultra Titanium, or even the MasterWatt MIJ.

Are you suggesting that the 80+ rating has anything to do with the quality of the psu?

the 80+ is just an efficiency rating,so at half or close to the rated load it will be 80 percent efficient.

I recommend you do some extremely basic research. 

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/80_Plus

80+ means the psu meets ECOS standards of achieving 80% power efficiency from the wall(plug load) at @ 23C ambient temp for 15 min. at full load.
Categories include 80+ 80%,Bronze 82%,Silver 85%,Gold 87%,and Platinum 89%.at 100% load.
http://www.plugloadsolutions.com/80PlusPowerSupplies.aspx
23C at 80%+ efficiency isn't exactly a hard goal to reach for a quality unit.
The best quality units exceed this no problem and can sustain high efficiency at 40C.

 

and your link confirms what i said thanks

I literally made an account here, just to comment to this specific statement, almost after a year, just to say that my Seasonic Focus+ gold is now failing in just 1 year or so, and I'm hovering from forums to forums NOT wanting to CHOOSE seasonic at all, not just from my opinion but as well as from what I've read among countless forums, and I mostly goes towards evga g3/corsair rmx/cooler master mwe, which I think, I'd go for corsair rmx.
