#1
Corsair
4.5
(127)
"Its a quality power supply I'd say its worth it."
"I'd say go Corsair with the lowest wattage you can get, its been very reliable."
"SF 750 , SF850 , SF1000 depending on budget."
"I think at least SF850, they already comes with 3x 6+2 pin..."
"Corsair SF750 or SF850."
"Corsair SF750"
"Get the Corsair SF1000. It is the best SFX and SFX-L power supply and one of, if not the only, PSUs that has the new 12VHPWR standard."
"The SF1000 is the current best."
"I bought the Corsair from Scan and absolutely love it. No coil whine, smallish fan, but since I'm not pulling more than 750W that is never an issue."
"Corsair, EVGA, SeaSonic are tops for SFX PSU’s imo."

"Have you considered Cooler Master V850 Sfx?"
"Just ordered myself a 750w cooler master psu."
"Something like a Cooler Master V SFX is the highest rated SFX PSU."
"I have been using CM V850 SFX, suggest you go for 650W version."

"Cooler Master intros first 850W SFX power supply"
"I use a Cooler Master V850 SFX for that build but I know plenty who run SF750 too."
"I enjoy my v1100 CoolerMaster - BUT many have gone with the sf750"

Silverstone
3.8
(33)
"Silverstone SX1000 with their new PP14-EPS cable works great at powering a 7950x and a 4090."
"I run a Silverstone SX1000 in my 3090 ITX build."
"[Silverstone SX750](https://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=946&area=en)"
"I went with Silverstone Extreme 850R Platinum. It has a lower 0 RPM threshold..."
"The newer revision of the SX1000 from Silverstone has been pretty good for me so far."
"Go for Silverstone's PSUs"
"It has a good passive range and a silent fan."
"I am now testing a couple of PSUs from SilverStone since they advertise 0rpm mode up to 150w power draw, and somewhat quiet operation after that."
"Silverstone Extreme 850R Platinum"
"SilverStone Extreme 850R SFX or CM V1100 SFX."

"Here's the one that I use with my 6800xt. Working flawlessly for almost 2 years now."
"I am running the exact set up on a evga gold 650w, never had an issue."
"Been using a evga 650gm with 3080 10900k with no issue."
"I've been using my 4090 with my EVGA SFX GM850 with a MODDIY direct PSU 12VHPWR cable with zero issues so far."
"EVGA SuperNOVA 850 GM SFX 80+ Gold Fully Modular PSU."
"Evga gm 850w. Cooler master is too loud."
"I'm using this as my PSU with a 6800."
"I don't hear about them too often, but the 550w sounds like a great buy."
"Honestly ,I'd just get the EVGA."
"I wouldn't. Is there a reason you can go with an equal/better brand like EVGA or Seasonic?"

"SilverStone Technology 300W SFX Form Factor 80 Plus Bronze Power Supply."
"I just did a Silverstone (sx800-lti) and you can do straight connector to connector."
"Get the 500w version that has a 120mm fan so it'll be quieter."
"I went with Silverstone's SX600-G which has a "fanless" mode but it is only fanless in very low ambient temperatures."

Asus

"Asus loki, sf750"
"If your config can handle sfx-l Asus Loki 1000 watt is the best 1000 watt imo."
"Corsair SF750 if you only have room for SFX, Asus Loki 850 (or 1K for future proofing) if you can fit sfxl."
"Asus ROG Loki series is the way to go if you do not want to use adapters."
