2. Theitdepot - Seasonic 520W Power Supply (S12II-520)
3. Theitdepot - Seasonic Eco Series 600W Power Supply (SS-600BT)

I would like to the know difference between the S12II and ECO series..

bump. Anyone. Very urgent.
 
Any specific reason behind going for Seasonic?
At current market price, your budget is in the middle of entry level PSU and mid level PSU.

Beginning with Seasonic, S12II 520 is a very goo PSU, and you if you can get it at a descent price (i.e. <4K) get it. The link which you have mentioned from ITdepot, is a very good deal for S12II 520. Buy it!!
ECO series PSUs from Seasonic are entry level PSU and should be avoided due to their low efficiency and reported low life-expectancy. In short, their build quality is cheap.

If you are willing to go in Corsair way, the minimum choice as mid-level PSU would be: GS600 which set you back by 4.5K.

Components used, also I think the ECO series are built with only 230V input in mind.

In your situation I suggest that you go the whole hog and get a Seasonic S12II 520W and sit easy for the next few years.
 
Thanks @d6bmg and @ALPHA17.

Prime ABGB doesnt have any seasonic ones on their website while flipkart has priced it around 4.5k. Looking to buy it nearer to 4k.
 
Only thing i need to know is whether bitfang procures from Tirupathi Enterprises. Only then they will honor warranty claims.
@d6bmg Can you give me their no. I lost it when my phone got stolen and the backup is on my desktop which cant be accessed now since psu has gone kaput.

Found it cheapest with iT Depot. Placed an order with them. They have given an ETA of 4 days since the stock is with their HO.
