Hello everyone,
So I am building a PC this month and the parts will be:
I9 13900k
Asus Rog Strix Z790 E-Gaming
Asus Rog Strix RTX 4090 OC or Asus Tuf RTX 4090 OC (most probably I'll go with Tuf OC because Rog Strix OC is in back order)
Corsair Vengeance DDR5-5600 RGB 32x4= 128Gb (Dominator is not available and import costs double the price after tax/customs)
Samsung 990 Pro 2Tb x2
WD Black SN850X M.2 4Tb
Seagate Iron wolf pro 7200rpm 256Mb Cache 18Tb
(and I'll be adding my old SSDs (1x m.2, 2x Samsung 870 Evo, and 4 HDDs)
Cooler Master Liquid ML360R (in my current build which i bought last year in August)
Now I originally wanted (and still want)
MSI MEG Ai1300P (Platinum) PSU
but it is not available and has no date of availability, even the
MEG Ai1000P
is not available.
But the
MPG A1000G (Gold
) is available and MSI is the only ATX 3.0 PCI 5.0 PSU brand available here.
So will the
MSI MPG A1000G
be fine with my build or should I wait until
MEG Ai1300P
becomes available?
Also how's the
Zotac Gaming RTX 4090 AMP Extreme Ario
compared to
Asus Tuf OC
? As it is also easily available and my only reason for choosing Asus is because of 2 HDMI ports?
I'll really appreciate the help, thanks.

For RTX 4090, the recommended minimum is a 1200W PSU, whereas a 1600W would be ideal. Some of these three 1.6kW options are strong choices. A 1000W PSU is insufficient for this GPU. The RTX 4090 has a 450W rating but can handle up to 600W with the right adapter, especially considering power spikes that raise demand. To accommodate those fluctuations, a 1.2kW or higher PSU would be preferable. What are GPU transient power spikes? A video to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wnRyyCsuHFQ

The 1000w ATX3.0 PSU is capable of managing 20ms surges up to 2000w, so the MSI A1000G ATX3.0 should work well.

Are there any reasons why you're relying heavily on ASUS products? The way ASUS handled the AMD AM5 situation would definitely make it uncomfortable to consider their offerings again. They're a company with a bad reputation.
