recommended 1000w psu for sapphire nitro+ 7900xtx
I can't decide what to buy since I can't find a clear winner, please suggest some good 80 plus gold fully modular 1000w PSUs.
I believe an 850w won't be sufficient for overclocking. My 7900xtx hasn't arrived yet, expected in 4-5 days.
My system details are: 7800x3d, 2x16gb cl32 6000mhz ram, asus b650e-f mobo.
I'm not sure about the msi MPG series; I think
Thermaltake Toughpower GF3 1000W is a better choice.
What are your full system specs?
I've heard good things about this model and I've personally considered picking up one of these 850 watt units.

420W Total Board Power for NITRO+ AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX Vapor-X
Is 1,000 watts needed, or would 850 suffice?
If build is on an Intel CPU platform, then perhaps higher wattage is indeed indicated.
If current rumor about future RTX 5090 being 1.7X performance of RTX 4090 then I wouldn't be surprised if wattage of the 5090 would exceed the 450 watts of the 4090.

Understood. Even though I don’t particularly like Thermaltake items except for their cases, they do offer some well-designed products. With a budget of ₹16,000 INR ($192.74 USD) and a somewhat restricted selection on the site you mentioned, I would choose the Corsair RM1000e 1000 Watt. However, it seems the Corsair RMe series doesn’t have a 12/16 pin 12VHPWR PCIe connector. Also, I want to be clear—I haven’t personally used the RMe or Thermaltake-branded power supplies, but I prefer Corsair’s premium models over any Thermaltake ones. Maybe that’s just a bias.
The ATX 3.0 standard requires strong reliability and energy efficiency. Although many CORSAIR PSUs satisfy these needs, RMe Series PSUs are officially certified for ATX 3.0 compliance. The included cable supports PCIe 5.0 12VHPWR for modern graphics cards like the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 Series. It features a 12/16 pin 12VHPWR PCIe connector.
Sort of. I think they're adding an adapter cable that connects two-8 pin connectors to the PSU side, and also a 12VHPWR PCIe port for the GPU. That's problematic because it means there isn't a standard 12VHPWR outlet on the PSU side. Also, remember that none of the AMD GPUs, including your 7900 XTX, actually use the 12VHPWR connector. I only noted it, just in case you ever switch to a Nvidia GPU and need native support for that new power connector.
