They appear to be of the same rank, but the Strix is noted to have a potentially noisy fan due to the bearing type used.


Just curious: Does the case have a psu shroud? If so, how much does the color really matter here? Psu shrouds obscure most of the psu, and thus much of the color.

yes it does but i was going for the white cables

Right - the cables! That one slipped my mind.

The fan on the Strix may be the deciding factor.

The Asus has a worse fan, worse fancontrol, worse heatsinks inside that blocks airflow on the components and thinner PCI-e cables. RM850 2021 is better in a distance.
