Typically I'd go for the Gold - Better rating, higher efficiency & a 10 year warranty on the Gold unit.

But if I'm reading Tom's Tier list correctly, then the Bronze Supernova B2 is rated higher than the NEX Gold. The Bronze Spernova B2 looks to be Tier 2, while the Gold NEX is Tier 3. Does anyone know these units well?

I'm buying in Canada, and I can actually find the NEX Gold for $10 cheaper right now, but for $10 I'd rather go for the better of the two.

The EVGA SuperNOVA 750 G1 (120-G1-0750-XR) is based on an old group regulated circuit design. It's not Intel Haswell or later compatible.

The EVGA SuperNOVA 750 B2 (110-B2-0750-VR) is based on a modern DC-to-DC circuit design and is fully Intel Haswell and later compatible.

The B2 is definitely the better choice.
