Verdict
be quiet! Pure Power 12 M 750W
8.2 / 10 Expert Rating
A solid 750W 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.
MSI MPG A1000G PCIE5
8.2 / 10 Expert Rating
The MPG A1000G is the consumer sibling to MSI's server-oriented A1000GS, keeping Zero Frozr fan control and a native 12V-2x6 connector for gaming rigs that don't need the GS's extra hardening.
