I know one is 80 plus bronze and the other is gold, but what are the performance differences? I know they're made by different companies. I would want to know if the CS one is worth the money over the CX one.

More about : corsair cx750m cs750m

CS series might save you a bit of cash on the power bill, but honestly the performance benefits over the CX are negligible, if any. Personally, I would suggest the CX series. That one will run a bit quieter over the CS.

I didn't find any reviews on the CS750M, why is that? Do you have any personal experience with it?

The CS is newer than the CX which might be the reason you aren't finding much. I do not have any experience with that CS model but I do have a CX650 model in my current build. It's a good PSU, most Corsairs are.

Get the CS it has better components than the CX and is worth the price. However there are better psu in the same price range

As has already been pointed out, the CS series is still new and not much as far as testing has been done, at least that I have found yet. JohnnyGuru did a test of the 550W and gave it a 8.4/10, value being it's lowest score. In the price being asked for these VS units, there are better made PSUs with higher quality capacitors. Look to some of the seasonic made PSUs as prime examples (some antecs, some corsair, XFX to name a few). You'll find some at the same price point as the VS, and they have better quality parts if you dig deeper. The CS level on the other hand, I avoid and don't recommend. It is great for low entry level computers, but not if you are building a high end gaming machine with the intent to overclock.

Here is a decent list of quality PSUs to look over http://www.johnnylucky.org/power-supplies/psu-recommend...

There isn't even a CX650, only a CX600...

I can't find the Seasonic G 750 in my country and here there aren't any rosewill ones at all.
These are my three options: the two in the title and this http://www.alza.sk/cooler-master-gm-750w-d487382.htm (cooler master g750m)

What will you be powering? 750w is overkill for just 1 GPU.
If it is 1 gpu only here are your better choices

Get the m12II 620w if you are overclocking.


I will be using one r9 270x and will crossfire later, i will use an i5 4670k, which i will overclock. I don't want to stress my psu really, because it will die sooner, that's why i want a 750w one :)

Then the CS 750w suits you the best. If you can stretch your budget a little bit

50w less but build quality is far better than the CS.


Oh, no way... that's too expensive :/ 
Some said that the CX750M is the same as the CS750M, except the efficiency - the build quality is the same... Is that true?
Because if it's true, I won't spend 20 euros more on the same thing. :D

Just reviewed a similar psu to CX. I can say that the 20 euros more is not worth it. Go with the CX.
