I'm putting together a PC build that costs between $900 and $1000 and I'm trying to decide between two power supply units. One option is the Apevia Prestige 600W, and the other is the Sama GT650. Does anyone with more expertise in power supplies have advice on which one would be better for my build?

Honestly, neither of those PSUs are great for a $1k build. If you're set on those two, I’d lean towards the Sama since it has a certification from Cybernetics Labs, which is a good indicator of quality.
For a $1,000 build, I'd recommend going for a PSU from Tier A or B on the PSU tier list. You can check it out on the Cultist Network. Also, have you considered whether 650W is sufficient? Generally, 750W or 850W is a better fit for that price range.
You might want to look into the Seasonic Focus GX 750W ATX 3.1. It's a solid choice for durability and performance.
