  1. 1. Which PSU would you choose?

    • Cooler Master V750 Gold V2
      3
    • Corsair RM750X (2018)
      3


Hi there, apologies for another one of these suggestions threads but I just wanted to get a 2nd opinion regarding my choices. I recently upgraded to a Sapphire Nitro RX 6800 XT

I was initially deadset on the Corsair RM750X (2018) which I cant get for $165 AUD but I came across Aris' recent review on the Coolermaster V750 Gold V2 which he rated above the RM750X (2021) based on his relative performances chart. I can get the CM PSU for $149 AUD and they both have 10 year warranty. Would it still be worth springing for the RM750X or should I save the $15  AUD.

As a left field option, I can also get a Super Flower Leadex III 750W PSU but it's $165 AUD too and only has a 7 year warranty or a Fractal Ion Gold 750W for $149 AUD (7 year warranty). Or would there be any other potential cheaper options to consider?

Thanks for all your help!

The CM had a really strong showing coming from a lesser known OEM.  If it's cheaper, I'd go CM no question.
