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.
Seasonic Focus GX-850
8.2 / 10 Expert Rating
Seasonic's own in-house build quality at a mainstream 850W price point, with the updated ATX 3.0 spec and a native 12V-2x6 cable that the older Focus GX-750 doesn't offer.
