Which of these 2 power supply is better?
Cooler Master Extreme Power Plus - 550W Power Supply or a Corsair CX 500 Watt 80+ bronze certified power supply.
This is the PC im planning to build. Also note I would be overclocking so which power supply would do the job and also have enough power to overclock some parts.
MSI 970A-G43 AM3+ AMD 970 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard
8GB of Crucial Ballistix Tacticall 240-Pin DDR3 RAM
AMD FX 6300 Six Core CPU
Radeon R9-270X 2GB GDDR5 Overclocked edition
Western Digital 500GB Hardrive at 7200RPM

Corsair CX-500 is a bit higher quality. Go for the CX-500M if you can. The M means it is modular so you don't need all the cables attached at once :)
