Verdict
Antec Signature 1300 Platinum
8.8 / 10 Expert Rating
A best-in-class 1300W Platinum-rated ATX unit for a workstation or multi-GPU build with serious headroom, held back only by its premium price.
Fractal Design Ion+ 2 Platinum 760W
8.7 / 10 Expert Rating
Fractal's Ion+ 2 line targets its own quiet, minimalist case aesthetic, and the 760W Platinum unit is the sweet-spot capacity for a high-end single-GPU Fractal build like the Torrent or North.
