Currently have Ryzen 5950x and RX6950xt and will be building in a Dan A4 H2O. Trying to decide which PSU to go with.
On one hand the SF750 is smaller so easier to cable manage/build. Also gives me more flexibility to transition to smaller SFF cases should I want to (though I think Dan A4 H2O or something bigger will be pretty endgame for me since I like running high end parts).
On the other hand the Loki 1000w seems a better investment long term if I keep using high power GPU/CPU combos over the next few generations. I chose the A4 H2o because its the smallest case that cools everything decent. It's just bigger and more expensive.
I'll be getting custom cables for both PSU's so lengths and excess cables shouldn't be a concern. I've read a lot that the SF750 is plenty capable even with a 4090 so figured maybe I should just save space and some cost? It has a great reputation to boot too so I'm leaning that direction. But since these PSU's are so expensive relatively speaking, I just want to make the best long term decision. Thoughts?
