I had till date used 3 Corsairs and 2 CM.
Both CM gave awesome performance. Both delivered what they promised. I even had the much debated and rejected CM extreme power. That was running my AMD X4 9550 and 4850GC smoothly with never drop in power or unstability. a simle HWmonitor running in the back when I watch HD movies or played a game was my basic indicator.
Post CM EP I took TX750, it failed twice. Only saving grace was that the Corsair service is impeccable. Got brand new replacements like in 5 days. But due to lack in faith in TX series move to Silent Pro CM and that too worked brilliantly. Niether the components nor the outter box seems anywhere to sub-standard.
But since one experience was bad with Corsair i wouldnt say its bad company either so went now to HX 850 and its working as good as all the review sites had commented. Very stable n silent.
In end yes if anyone asks me preferences of brand I would rate Corsair higher than CM just because higher end Corsair are more efficient and VFM, compared to a CM. Real Power pro CM which would compete against a HX850 is not at par on efficiency and noise levels.
Seasonic is brilliant brand, however think CM n Corsair service in India makes it my third preferred brand relatively.
As Asingh said its personal matter of preference. But would agree also with Gowtham and Striker that CM is brilliant and should not be out rightedly reject. It is great product from the price it asks, and plus 5 yrs warranty and great service in India.
