My options:

- Super Flower Leadex VII PRO 1000W ATX3.0 Platinum : https://www.super-flower.com.tw/en/products/leadex-vii-xp-1000w-atx-30-bk-20240123170311

- be quiet! PURE POWER 12 M 1000W

- Corsair PSU 1000W RM1000e

- Corsair PSU 1000W RM1000x SHIFT (Maybe case problems)

3 questions:

  1. whats the difference between this super flower leadex model and the Leadex VII GOLD (its out of stock 🙁 )
  2. how do I know which psu is single rail and which is multi rail? I should pick single rail right?
  3. Someone told me ill have problems with the RMx shift in the Lancool 216 case because the cables are coming from the side, should I avoid it?




Im leaning towards the super flower VII platinum pro but it doesnt show on the cultists ranking, and I cant find whats the difference to the hold that is on there.

Thanks alot in advanced.

Cultist tierlist isn't update for more than 18 months so it's unusable for ATX3.x PSUs. Better look at https://hwbusters.com/best_picks/best-atxv3-pcie5-ready-psus-picks-hardware-busters/

Super Flower Leadex VII XP is great, the Pro is different from the XP and a bit less as you can see in the 1000w chart. Make shure you have the correct one.

Avoid the Corsair RMe. The fan is not great and makes an annoying noise.

The quality of the Pure Power 12M is not top notch.

The RMx Shift might have compatibilty issues with the case if this is smaller than 210mm.

thanks for the reply but im so so confused.

I dont know whats the Super Flower Leadex VII XP , such model doesnt exist on the super flower main website even: https://www.super-flower.com.tw/en

and not anywhere online, only VII pro platinum.

I checked cybenetics for this and both the XP and PRO have the same model number of : SF-1000F14XP
1. https://www.cybenetics.com/evaluations/psus/2450/
2. https://www.cybenetics.com/evaluations/psus/2194/
which is the model number of the item I can buy: https://www.super-flower.com.tw/en/products/leadex-vii-xp-1000w-atx-30-bk-20240123170311

So I have no clue which PSU is this one, also this PSU have weird universal connectors, is this a problem?
 
The XP is probably an early sample of the Pro.

The different connectors are on the modular board of the PSU and is typical for same SF models. 2 connectors for the motherboard and all other are universal and you can plug in any cable you want that came with the PSU. CPU, VGA, Sata or molex cable, it doesn't matter.
