I've read that the "i" series has something to do with digital power? What exactly is it? And, also, is it worth it over the standard series?

The " i " versions allow the use of Corsair Link software to monitor the PSU within Windows. You can adjust fan speeds and I believe voltages with the software. Below is JohnnyGuru's review of the 860i.
lo888 or SR-71 - can you add somemore to this?

The AXi Series has its voltage regulation performed by DSP (i.e. Digital Signal Processor) instead of by conventional analog components.

There is a USB cable that is connected from the PSU to a motherboard USB header so that you can create and use your own fan speed profiles and monitor the PSU's power input and output, efficiency, fan speed, and internal temperature through the Corsair Link Dashboard Windows application.

Only you can determine if those features are worth the extra money you have to pay for them.

The AXi series is mad by Flextronics and are Haswell compatible.
