What is the best 750W PSU for a mid-range PC?

Question

I am freaking out a little bit because I have all these parts sitting on my floor and I need to finish this build by Friday for my gaming stream. I have no idea where to even start with the power supply part... i think its called a PSU? Someone told me to get a 750W one for my pc but there are a million options and I dont get the difference between the brands or what the gold and bronze labels even mean. I have about $90 or $100 left in my budget and I really dont want to buy something cheap that will fry my whole system. What is the best 750W PSU for a mid-range PC that isnt gonna explode on me?

> i think its called a PSU? Someone told me to get a 750W one for my pc but there are a million options and I dont get the difference between the brands or what the gold and bronze labels even mean. Honestly, trying to find a high-quality unit for under $100 is getting way harder lately. I bought a cheap unit for a guest build last year and it was a total disaster... the coil whine was so loud I could hear it from the next room. Not as good as I expected from a reputable brand, tbh. Unfortunately, some of the older go-to budget models have actually gone down in quality while the price stayed high. If you can find the MSI MAG A750GL PCIE5 750W 80+ Gold on sale, jump on it. I’ve had issues with the cheaper bronze units failing after a year so dont even waste your money there. Stick to Gold if you can. The Cooler Master MWE Gold 750 V2 750W 80+ Gold is usually right at that $95 mark and hasnt let me down yet, but even those are getting pricier. Just dont cut corners too hard or youll regret it like I did.
