I aim to build a new homeserver lately.

Upon researching I found the RM550X by Corsair as a power efficient option under low loads.

The sad part is, that its available nowhere.

Does someone know a valid alternative, that does not cost more than the whole build?

    Well getting a better rated PSU for a higher price might help in the long run, you will have to do the math although going with the efficiency of Platinum versus Gold its not a lot.

    Europe Electricity is still around 43 cent/KWH?

      Its around 30 cent currently cause I have a good contract.

      During summer everything is fine cause my photovoltaic system produces almost all of the energy needed.

      Have to go more detailed into planning there. Maybe a good Gold+ is the key here.
