1000w PSU Advice

Looking for the above. Running a TR 3960 and 3090. No max budget.

Any advice much appreciated.

Cheapest I'd go for:

My basket at Overclockers UK:

1 x Phanteks AMP 1000W 80 plus Gold Module Power Supply= £129.95

Total: £140.45 (includes shipping: £10.50)

Thats a fantastic price for a quality 1000w psu. Seasonic built, 10 year warranty, no reason to pay any more than that.

Looks solid thanks. Any reason to go for a Corsair HX or RM over this or is it just wasting money?

Wasting money. It's basically a Seasonic with a Phanteks sticker.

The only reason to go for the hx1000 is it has more 8 pin pcie outputs. Its hard to imagine that matters for most normal pcs but due to mining on my gaming machine the extra pcie slots work well for me
