Performance and where it ranks
Two different questions, side by side. Performance compares what the hardware can do; Value compares what that capability costs at today’s price. A product can rank high on one and low on the other — that gap is the point.

Balanced has no letter: it is a weighting preset, not a capability rubric. A grade answers “how well does this handle that job?” — price is never part of it. Relative Value puts the current market price back in.

A case that takes ATX power supplies
The size is set by the case: ATX cases take ATX units, small cases take SFX (some also SFX-L).
150 mm of power-supply bay, plus room for the cables
Case makers list the longest power supply the bay takes; modular cables need extra space behind the unit.

Summary
ASUS TUF Gaming 1000W Gold offers a balanced view across an all-round mix of priorities. It ranks #12 by capability in the current modelled field. Its clearest measured strength is rated output 1000. The main limitation appears when Small form factor becomes the priority, where it grades F.
ASUS TUF Gaming 1000W Gold offers A-grade capability for Gaming PC. It ranks #12 by capability in the current modelled field. Its clearest measured strength is rated output 1000. The main limitation appears when Small form factor becomes the priority, where it grades F.
ASUS TUF Gaming 1000W Gold offers C-grade capability for High-end GPU. It ranks #12 by capability in the current modelled field. Its clearest measured strength is rated output 1000. The C grade is the decisive limitation for this workload.
ASUS TUF Gaming 1000W Gold offers F-grade capability for Small form factor. It ranks #12 by capability in the current modelled field. Its clearest measured strength is rated output 1000. The F grade is the decisive limitation for this workload.
ASUS TUF Gaming 1000W Gold offers B-grade capability for Workstation. It ranks #23 by capability in the current modelled field. Its clearest measured strength is rated output 1000. Cooler Master MWE Gold 850 V3 currently clears the same practical bar with stronger Relative Value.
FAQ
Why does Relative Value change when I choose another scenario?
Each scenario changes the weights applied to capability, price and the other published factors. The hardware facts stay fixed, but the value question changes, so its score and rank can change too.
Why can Amazon appear without a tracked price?
Amazon is shown as a discovery link when we do not have a permitted verified price snapshot. It is excluded from price comparisons, rankings and Relative Value until a compliant tracked price exists.
