Hello first. I am thinking of getting an 850 watt power supply to my system.

I have two power sources in mind. - Be quiet straight power 11 850watt gold - Asus rog strix 850w white gold.

Which of these two models should I choose? Which would be more correct?

The casing I use is Be Quiet Silent Base 802 White. Motherboard, liquid cooling and my graphics card are asus rog series.

That is why I specified these two models. I will be very happy if you give your opinion. I am using 5900x processor, x570 ch8 and asus rog strix vega 64.

Which power source would be more suitable? In terms of component quality and power delivery?

I would be happy if you could help.

asus rog strix vega 64
Probably not ASUS ROG Strix then, it's Seasonic Focus based and depending on it's manufacturing date it could have shutdown issues with AMD Vega, i'm not sure if there were pre-fix White version tho, maybe they're all good. Do you absolutely down to only these two models ? bqt SP11 Gold isn't bad tho, it's okay if you like it.

I have really enjoyed the Corsair HXI series and EVGA P2 series, I have built multiple machines with both of these and love how quiet they are and great at power delivery (see Johnny guru) . I have never built with one of them, I would want to see some reviews, the rail power, what platform their built on etc.

You know there's such a thing as Google, right ?

They're good actually. bqt model is made by FSP, based on a few of their LLC resonant platforms so it's better than usual FSP stuff which is mostly ACRF, that combined with an excellent bqt SW3 fan. ASUS one is just a rebadged Seasonic Focus, aside of some problems i've discussed above it's a good unit too but i'd probably say out of these two, bqt is better.

I thought of buying Be Quiet. But people say it has multi rails. But Be Quiet is at the top of the tier class charts. Tier A class.
