Who each one is for
The ASUS ROG Thor 1000W Platinum II suits high-end single-GPU gaming builds and builds wanting a visible power draw readout, though it is the wrong buy for small form factor cases. Buy the Deepcool PK750D for strict budget builds needing 750W and mid-range GPUs like the RTX 4060, though it is not built for long-term primary gaming rigs and anyone wanting more than a 2-year warranty. Our rating of the Deepcool PK750D (6/10): the cheapest way to 750W of Bronze power here, but the short 2-year warranty makes it a last-resort pick rather than a first choice.
