Hey, I recently bought an Intel Core i7-14700KF CPU and I need some advice on the best power supply unit (PSU) to pair with it. Any suggestions?

Hi @Layfield97! You should check out our article Choosing the Best Power Supply for Intel's Core i7-14700KF CPU that discusses how to choose the best PSU for Intel's Core i7-14700KF CPU.
The article from @waynepreno is great, but I would also like to recommend Thermaltake Toughpower GF3 Series 80+ Gold Full Modular ATX 3.0 PCIe Gen 5 Power Supply as it is perfect for top-tier components. It has a wattage range of 750-1650 watts.
Another good option for mid-tier components is EVGA SuperNOVA G5 Series Fully Modular Power Supply (220-G5-0650-X1) which offers 650-1000 watts of power.
@Nanomachines-Son and @Teenagershelp. I think I'll go with the Thermaltake Toughpower GF3 Series as it has a high wattage range. What do you suggest for future expansion?
That's a great choice, @Layfield97. Adding a 100-150 watt buffer is always a good idea for future expansions.
I have been using the EVGA SuperNOVA G5 Series for quite some time now and it has been reliable so far. It also comes with an 80+ Gold certification which means it's energy efficient.
That's good to know, @brianlovestennisball. I will look into both options and make my final decision. Thanks everyone!
