Performance: 10/10 (40% of the final score)
Exceptional performance, my new favorite PSU. The efficiency is astounding and left us really impressed with the titanium unit. Seasonic aptly named the unit as it showcases a manufacturer that is clearly in their prime and will continue putting out amazing units for years to come.
Features: 9.9/10 (20% of the final score)
The Seasonic Prime has a subtle, but innovative feature set. I loved the internal design choices that went into this unit and it made me feel even better about the quality of the hardware I'm putting into my system. If I were to have the smallest of nitpick it would be the Hybrid button on the back of the unit. I really would have preferred a switch in this case so that it would be less likely to be accidentally turned ON/OFF.
Components/Build Quality: 10/10 (20% of the final score)
One of if not the best build quality we have seen on the bench. From the rigidity of the unit, to the high-quality components and build specifications. Seasonic took the Prime series to the brink of perfection and I don't think I could even suggest improvement to the components or build quality, it's just that good.
Value: 10/10 (20% of the final score)
At the time of writing, Newegg has the Seasonic Prime 650w for $149.99 with a $20 rebate, making the unit only $129.99. The closest model from the competition is a 600w Titanium unit that is $140. I think it goes without saying that the Seasonic Prime is an exceptional value. Even when comparing it to a 750w unit, it's still cheaper and if needed you could step up to the same unit at 750w for still less than the competition. Seasonic has a real winner here and it's no surprise to see it as the flagship model for the company.
