Usually i buy Corsair or antec psu's, But at the price range of about €60 i noticed a "xigmatek 700w Tauro 80 plus bronze psu", i know what the bronze stands for but i have never come across this brand before (as i mainly order through the same site which only started to stock them in the last month) Are these power supply's reliable, worth the price like a corsair or a cheap pile of rubbish like a alpine?.

Andyson is not the absolute trash it was a few years ago. They are not Seasonic or anything either but they have some decent units. That Xigmatek is actually rated pretty well.

8/10 from Hardwareheaven. They do point out the use of cheap Teapo capacitors.

All in all a decent budget power supply. As good as the Corsair CX series.

Sorry Quick minor detail to change is that the Psu Was 500w not 700w i read the wrong psu wattage, So your telling me a xigmatek 500w Tauro 80 plus bronze psu is about equal to a 500w Corsair Cx series?(i use the cx series)
