Verdict

ASUS ROG Thor 1200W Platinum II

8.8 / 10 Expert Rating

A best-in-class 1200W Platinum-rated ATX unit for a workstation or multi-GPU build with serious headroom, held back only by its premium price.

Cougar GLE 1200W

6.8 / 10 Expert Rating

Solid paper specs and a genuinely compact 1200W Gold ATX 3.1 unit, but Cougar has zero track record with us and several spec details (MTBF, exact connector counts, official warranty term) aren't consistently published yet.
