Heard that CM Real Power Pro 460 are reliable..

will check here for both of them fsp and cl real power pro 460,how much for the real power?:huh:

 

[MegaMind]

Cooler Master Real Power Pro 460W - 3.3k

Also check for corsair cx 430 v2 - 2.6k

 

[Aneesh@4GHz]

here its hard to find good branded psu,some even dont know about corsair. If cm is 3.3,then will go for corsair cx400 or cx430.

budget 4k-gs600 or s12ii520w or cm gx550w

 

[MegaMind]

^For which rig?

 

[Jakob]

config- pro-phenom II x4 955,mobo-m4a78ltm,case-zebronics bijli,gpu-sapphire hd 6850,ram-corsair xms3 4gb1333.

S12II 520w is the best option. You can choose the GS600 if the former is unavailable.

Strictly avoid the CM GX550w :no:

 

[MegaMind]

^^Exactly what i was gonna say..

 

[Jakob]

if s12ii520w not available then- vx450 or s12ii430w

[MegaMind]

still vx450... But i guess GS600 are not far away.. U can check them..

 

[surajspai]

is it true that even the vx550 is being discontinued?

 

[Jakob]

nope-vx550=4.6k

 

[G80_gts]

^^^ but its really hard to find the VX series on the street. I mean last week all of the dealers i met were shoving me the CX series or the GS series.

 

[Jakob]

vx 550 is available in mumbai.
