Verdict
be quiet! Pure Power 12 M 850W
8.2 / 10 Expert Rating
The 850W Pure Power 12 M tops out the modular M-series, giving budget-focused builders a native 12V-2x6 connector and Gold efficiency without stepping up to the pricier Straight Power line.
Corsair RM750e
8 / 10 Expert Rating
The quietest thing at this money by a real margin, but MSI gives you a better fan, more cables and three more years of warranty for five dollars.
