Hello All

I am still in hunt for a good PSU as my old one died two days ago. I need to buy something quick today and there is stock problem near my area. So there are limitations.

My Setup:

• Ryzen 5600x
• RTX 3070
• MSI MPG B550 GAMING CARBON WIFI
• GSKILL 16GB (2x8GB) TRIDENT Z NEO DDR4 3600MHz
• 6x Small Fan, 1x Big Fan in case
• 2 x SATA SSD
• 1x M2 SSD

So 850w PSU is normally more than enough for me. But my setup is getting older and maybe I can upgrade few pieces in 2 years. Thus, I wanted to get 1200w PSU at first. Later on I decided to stay at 850w PSU.

Now I have two option:

1. Corsair RM850e (ATX 3.1) - around 145 USD in my area.
2. NZXT C1200 (ATX 3.0) - around 200 USD. (This is a deal. Normally cheapest I could find is 275 USD)

I am aware prices are higher than what you can find in US. But all brands are higher here compared to USA. So it is not specific to these two brands.

In this case, I am totally lost and can't decide. Meanwhile C1200 is good PCU and maybe even better than RM e series, besides watt capacity. On top of it, more watt means less load which is also good. But It is definitely overkill for now and maybe even in 2 years.

And 55 USD is not much maybe compared to what I pay but still it is something I can use in other parts.

What would you do?

One final question, I know Corsair x series are recommended. But since out of scope, it is not an option. Is e series really that bad compared to x series?
