Corsair RM650x

The RM650x is a high performance PSU featuring great build quality and a very silent operation. It is offered at a fair price and the ten-year warranty is the cherry on top. Its major problem seems to be the harsh competition from EVGA's similar priced offerings, especially the 650 P2 model.

The SuperNOVA 650 G3 achieves an excellent value score thanks to its good price and great performance in almost every discipline. However, we are troubled by EVGA's decision to equip it with fewer cables and connectors than its predecessor. Fortunately, most mid-range graphics cards only require one PCIe connector.
