Verdict
ASUS ROG Strix 1000W Gold ATX3.0
8.2 / 10 Expert Rating
ASUS extends the Strix Gold ATX3.0 line to 1000W here, keeping the Aura Sync-lit fan shroud and Axial-tech blades from the 850W model while adding headroom for a higher-end GPU.
Lian Li Edge 850W Gold
8.2 / 10 Expert Rating
Lian Li's first PSU line pairs a native ATX 3.0 12V-2x6 cable with the brand's usual case-matching black finish, aimed at builders assembling an all-Lian-Li rig around a Lancool or O11 case.
