It depends on the games you want to play. I personally like playing with Nvidia cards. But this power supply is a great option too.

You get a 10-year warranty on the power supply unit.

Yes, the inside parts of this PSU look fine and its voltage settings are really tight. But because it uses a different platform than the Montech Century II 1050W or 1200W, I need to test the safety features before saying if it's good or bad. Here is the link for their review: https://www.vortez.net/articles_pages/mo...iew,6.html Because of that, in SPL's PSU ranking list (link), the Montech Century II 850W is currently considered in a guessing spot called Tier B. If the protections also work properly when tested, it could move up to join the higher capacity models in Tier A. But if the protections fail, it might end up in Tier C or D. For now, without knowing exactly how those safety features work, I would not buy that PSU.

PSU seems okay: https://www.cybenetics.com/evaluations/psus/2813 Actually, it just feels like it depends on what you use. The price for both cards is pretty similar. I think NVIDIA is the better pick even though I personally don't want to buy their stuff right now.
