Hi,
I building pc (now just 1 GPU) and have strange that RM1000i is better for my build then HX1000i which is better in general then RM1000i ( and cheaper).

With RM1000i - build is ok - https://pcpartpicker.com/list/nTBsNQ.

Will you have a pair of GTX2080/2080Ti's?

In terms of build quality they're both about the same. The HX1000i is a CWT unit and the RM1000i is also a CWT unit but I'm not sure. Either way they're both solid units, you can't go wrong with either one.

I do not. I`m planing my build and probably will go with 2080 ti.

Thanks. I know that they both are great, but the strange for me is that Corsair PSU is like AX>HX>RM. And I dont know why but HX1000i cost 160 EUR and RM1000i 177. Difference really not big. They both are 1KW, but how HX1000i is have the issue in build and RM1000i don`t...?

Thanks for the links!
