On Amazon, today.
If you can't buy it in a click, it isn't on the list. Units that go out of stock or jump in price come off at the monthly check.
ATX 3.0 or newer.
Every pick handles the power spikes of current graphics cards, and most have the native 12V-2x6 cable, so you won't need adapters.
A track record I trust.
Build quality, protections and reliability. If a unit doesn't meet all three rules, it isn't here, however popular it is.
Shop the picksQuick answers
Is a bigger power supply a waste of money?
A little extra is good. It gives room for power spikes and later upgrades, and a power supply runs quieter when it isn't near its limit. Going far past what you need only costs more.
Do I need ATX 3.1?
If you're buying new, it's worth having. Every unit on this list is ATX 3.0 or newer.
Can I reuse cables from my old power supply?
No. Modular cables aren't standard between brands, or even between models from one brand. Use the cables that come in the box.
Do you earn money from these links?
Yes. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. It doesn't change the price you pay or which units make the list.
