Verdict

ASUS ROG Strix 850W Gold ATX3.0

8.3 / 10 Expert Rating

A solid 850W Gold-rated ATX unit for a popular RTX 4070 Ti / RTX 5070-class gaming build, held back only by the usual mid-tier compromises on cabling and OEM sourcing.

Gigabyte UD850GM PG5

8 / 10 Expert Rating

A modern, well-specced ATX 3.1 Gold unit for Gigabyte-themed builds, docked slightly for being a newer, less field-tested platform.
