Verdict
Antec HCG1000 Gold Extreme
8.3 / 10 Expert Rating
A solid 1000W Gold-rated ATX unit for an RTX 4080/4090 or RTX 5080/5090-class high-end gaming build, held back only by the usual mid-tier compromises on cabling and OEM sourcing.
EVGA SuperNOVA 750 GA
8 / 10 Expert Rating
A well-built, long-warrantied 750W Gold unit that loses points only for lacking native ATX 3.0 support.
