2psu per 8 1080 ti rig
Evga 1000 g3 and some 1800 watt from aliexpress
The one from ali makes more noise,since it's fan have no speed control,but they both are good psus

Aren't you worried about the nonbrand 1800W PSU ? You can afford 1080ti and can't afford decent PSU ? Isn't it like buying nice sportscar and installing the oldest and ugliest rims and tyres ?

Not worriedat all.
I have 2 rigs powered by those psus,have also all kind of branded psu.In the end they all the same-works fine,but in case of branded psu you pay double price at least.

To absolutely no extent does it work the same! Sure, they both supply power. But not only do the expensive ones do it more efficiently, meaning a lower electricity bill, but mainly the difference is what the expensive PSUs are packing in terms of safety features. The list of safety features added to the high end EVGA PSUs are incredible! The main one for me is Over Temperature Protection which is a great safety feature against potential fires (which these days, the PSU is the most likely component to catch fire). Let's list some features:

OVP (Over Voltage Protection)
UVP (Under Voltage Protection)
OCP (Over Current Protection)
OPP (Over Power Protection)
SCP (Short Circuit Protection)
OTP (Over Temperature Protection)

Now see if your cheap PSU has even half of these!
