Hi everyone. I need some help picking a PSU. I was interested in the Seasonic Focus Plus Platinum 850W but reading of all the ripple issues I no longer wanna go with that. I took a look at the PSU Tier List here on LTT (I will link it below) and saw the Cooler Master V-Platinum 2019 which looks very nice but saw a review on it from tomshardware which sort of brought some doubts of the PSU (I will link below). I looked at the EVGA supernova g3 but with all the fan issues going around I don't wanna take my chances. Basically I am in a never ending loop of doubting myself over what to pick and really need some input. I am looking to spend a max of $200. Thanks so much!

I ordered everything. It hasn't arrived yet just placed it tonight. I was lucky enough to get the 3950x two or three days ago from Amazon before it sold out. The instock notification made me jump in the middle of the night lol. It just shipped today.
