Seasonic Prime PX Platinum
1300 W
I was having issues with my 6900xt red devil ultimate on my hx850i PSU 850w, where random crashes would happen since the GPU would spike hard (900w recommended from vendor). This PSU handles my GPU perfectly. I've heard that some RTX3090 / 3080ti GPUs might have issues with this line of PSUs, that said it should be fixed with the new PX lines.

I have been relying on Seasonic for almost 20 years. Every power supply has been convincing, the quality is simply top league. However, Seasonic is now also letting itself down a bit, because the cables no longer have the premium flair they used to have, but come without any sheathing at all. However, I can certainly appreciate the look of the current ribbon cables. While a neat cable bag used to be part of the scope of delivery, this has been replaced by a red colour. Technically, this is not a bad thing and saves resources, but it does take away some of the "luxury" of the product.
However, this does not detract from the power supply itself. Seasonic remains first-class and that's what counts in the end.
Please note that only an EU power cable is included. When ordering/collection, ask for a CH cable to be sent or given to you.

My first Seasonic power supply. Basically OK, also seems reasonable and qualitatively good. But what bothers me a lot and that's why I will not order a Seasonic power supply again: It has only 1 PCI-E (VGA) cable included, which has 2x the 6+2 pin connector for the graphics card.... All other cables included are effectively single 6+2 cables. If you use multiple graphics cards, all the slots on the power supply will be occupied pretty quickly.
But this is more of a miner than a gamer problem.... Otherwise, everything is fine ;-)
The ideal power supply for the big budget. The price is on the high side, but absolutely justified for the performance and quality received.
Thanks to the full modularity, the organization of the cables has become easier and the high efficiency due to the Platinum certification as well as Seasonics Silentmode creates hardly any emissions.
Thanks to the high performance, I was able to overclock both CPU (i7-7700k) and GPU (2xGTX 1080 in SLI so far) without the PSU breaking a sweat. I am therefore confident that my upgrade to a 30er card will work without problems.

A little expensive but worth it
