PSU Advice, which one to power the CUD.

EVGA G2

Admittedly my last two pc's had a CoolerMaster and now a Corsair in, both Gold Rated, have been exceptionally happy with both. The high end Corsair's are amazing. Don't let the pre-boot sequence scare you after the power was off though, it does some sort of check. Scared the hell out of me the first time it did that.
 
Agreed it was overkill, no lies there, but it's future proof for the next generation of Intel I9s:ROFLMAO: (300w at max load, rumoured to be, at least).
So platinum is really just caps and a huge amount of money more!
EVGA G2 1000w was R2k from Wootware, and has a 10yr warranty.
I think if you EVER decide doing some decent custom loop cooling and RGB you are well equipped with sufficient power though.
 
I recommend superflower aswell. Stellar build quality and modularity at a good price to rival some of the bigger brands. If I'm not mistaken they are also the OEM for alot of manufacturers like EVGA. But honestly, I have one myself they are primo

Edit: The gold units ship with a 5 year warranty!

I already have a decent custom loop, EKWB 3.2 ddc xtop pump, 1x360mm rad, 1x240mm rad and fans to match those rads...
So hope 1000w will be enough🤦‍♂️.

Got my HX 1200I a year old for R 2.1 k but still a nice PSU you have there.

My current PSU does this as well, thanks for the head up!

Will be more than enough - my new loop will have 4 rads, 2 pumps, two res's & a shitload of fittings!
 
I managed to get a Corsair RM750i on the forums for R1500, nearly new.

It’s stuck in South Africa until I can come visit and take it back.

It may be going on for 6 years+, but it still works very well and is still under warranty.

Had my HX1050 for 9 years with no issues and it was already used - Corsair FTW.
