Damn. You're cursed indeed, guess some entity doesn't want you to get that new machine. It probably wouldn't boot in case you ever get it.

I think the gods are telling to wait for the 5080.

With the help of my brothers Paypal, I was finally able to order it. Went for a mix between white and black components. I'm very optimistic it will look good

This is what I went for btw. As I said a mix between white and black components inside that white/black North XL case.
Cutted out the prices, otherwise I feeld bad

Yeah, well the Gold one wasn't available since month and the platinum was, so I pressed the "yolo" button and took it.

Will let you know when I got it for the fan curves you promised

I disagree.
Personally would never buy a PSU which wasn't rated Platinum and Top Tier.

I have a platinium myself, but gold is completely enough.
Wouldnt buy platin again because of the high price.

In UK price difference between Gold and Platinum is minimal about 10-20%.
The main difference in price comes with Wattage when you go over 850W prices start increasing considerably, but not many people buy PSU's over 1000W. Although this might start now with 1000W PSU needed for a 5090, so the 6000 series will probably need much bigger PSU's and the majority of PSU's over 1000W are Platinum or Titanium.

If I was building a new machine over 2K I wouldn't skimp £20 on a PSU - @Cesc Fabregas made the right choice with Platinum.
The tiering is slightly more important than the rating, but most Platinum and all Titanium are Top Tier.
