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.

EVGA 600 BR

6.2 / 10 Expert Rating

A rock-bottom budget unit that does the job for light loads but should be skipped for anything beyond entry-level gaming.
