I'm considering buying the Raijintek Cratos ATX 3.1 Gold in either the 850W or 1000W version because I found it at a very attractive price. The model is listed as Tier A on a popular power-supply tier list, but I'd like to hear from people who have researched or actually used it. Is it reliable, and are there any known issues with this series?

I haven’t used one personally, but it seems to have a solid reputation and is rated highly on the PSU tier list. I also haven’t come across reports of widespread failures or serious problems, so it should be a reasonable choice at a good price.
The 850W and 1000W models look like capable ATX 3.1 units, and the high-tier classification is a good sign. As long as the price is competitive and the wattage matches your system’s needs, either should work well. I’d still check the warranty and connector layout before ordering.

That’s reassuring. I came across a few positive reviews as well, so I decided to go ahead with the purchase.
