Best compact psu?

Go to solution Solved by MourningSouls,

Silverstone really likes there PSU's to be 140mm long. Probably your best option. I don't know what the cables for their new Strider Gold series look like, but they do make sleeved cable kits, including a very nice short cable kit for SFF cases like the Prodigy.

I have a mini-itx prodigy, and I am looking for a good compact, light power supply that will make it easier to work in. Needs to be at least 750 watts.

 

Dream psu:

 

-compact

 

-at least gold rated (preferably platinum if possible)

 

-cables don't look like garbage

 

-at least semi-modular

You what? RM Series is overpriced and unimpressive. Especially the 750/850W units, with their crappy Ltec capacitors, and since they are worse than and more expensive than the EVGA Supernova G2 750/850W units.
