Hi,
I have a cheap PSU right now that I feel is about to go at any moment so I need to replace it ASAP, also I want to get a great little budget mchine to play a few games I have. I don't have to have all the eye candy in the world, just something that'll play nice.
Anyway I was looking at some PSUs rated at about 500w as I want to get something like a 6850 and maybe a i3 or a Athlon II X4 640. I think I could do 720p without a problem so I was looking at these two and I was wondering which people think is better:
Corsair 500W CX Series PSU or a Be Quiet! 530W Pure Power PSU.
I'd love to know about Corsairs warranty, the Be Quiet has a 2 year one BTW but I've never heard of Be Quiet my self. I don't want to go cheap again though! Also I'd probably wait for the AMD 7000 series myself.
