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.
XPG Pylon 650W
6.5 / 10 Expert Rating
An unremarkable but functional budget Bronze unit, worth it mainly for XPG ecosystem consistency.
