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.
NZXT C1200 Gold
8.2 / 10 Expert Rating
C1200 Gold tops out NZXT's Seasonic-built C-series, giving builders enough headroom for dual high-end GPUs or an overclocked flagship CPU plus GPU pairing without leaving the matte NZXT aesthetic.
