Possibly will need an SFX PSU when the Lian-Li mini launches. Specs of which are TBC. Currently I'd be looking to get a SF750.
I heard there were new SFF PSUs being released soon but can't remember the source. Are there any with a known release date? Don't think I want to go less than 750, as that's what I already have and want to ensure I have plenty of headroom. Am I limiting myself too much unnecessarily.

10600K @5.0Ghz, 2080ti OC'd.
 
You can't really go wrong with one of Corsairs SF series and that would be my choice as well. Argueably they are the best SFF psu's around right now. The only downside is that the warranty should be 10 years in my opinion but 7 years isn't too bad.
I wouldn't touch Silverstone with their high pricing and short warranties. Similar for BeQuiet.
Kolink I wouldn't touch with a bargepole.
The Seasonic SGX series are good but are a larger physical size.
The Fractal Design Ion SFX are ok but they are a larger size again.
 
Thank you! Very useful info there. I've had a few corsair ATX PSUs over the years and they have always served me well. Pleased I can stay brand loyal. Will keep my eye out for stock availability.
 
I have an EVGA 650w sfx unit. Quiet, runs well and has not missed a day. The cables aren't the easiest to manage, but it is a good psu with a nice warranty. Recommended as an alternative if you can't get a Corsair
 
Thank you for the suggestion. That seems to be out of stock everywhere I look.
I've actually managed to order a SF750 for £140. OCUK didnt have any predicted time when they'd be back in stock. Thought I'd get one now in case there are still supply issues when I want to do my build in a few weeks.

Nobody has these in stock yet? Guess paying £191 for mine was worth it in the end.

The .com throws me off sometimes too. I hope you can get your case sorted. Wait for the lian li mini 011 like me! If it's not too large for you.

Yeah I didnt even think to click on it. Thanks, I could pre order again but thinking of staying with a midi tower now I cant make my mind up. The O11 Mini will be too wide for me I dont have much desk space so ideally ITX but its proving to be too much hassle at the moment so might look at midi towers again and just keep my ATX PSU for the next build
 
Received my SF750. It's so tiny! Just need to know if the cables will reach now. Would be shame to put extenders on when they're so nicely braided. Seems a shame the PCIe cables are double ended too. Would have looked a lot neater if they were separately wired.
