Depends on games you like to play.

I, personally, prefer Nvidia.

Also, interesting choice on PSU.
 
10 year warranty on the psu.
Yes. Also, PSU internals look good and voltage regulation is tight. But since it uses different platform than Montech Century II 1050W/1200W, it's protections working must be tested before calling it either a good or a bad unit.

Review: https://www.vortez.net/articles_pages/montech_century_ii_850w_psu_review,6.html

Due to this, in SPL's PSU Tier list (link), Montech Century II 850W is currently in speculative position of Tier B. When the protections would also be tested and working properly, it could join it's higher capacity versions in Tier A. Or when protections doesn't work, it may end up in Tier C or D.

At current moment and without knowing for sure how the protections work - i would not buy that PSU.
