hi..
i'm looking to build my 1st pc. i'm a bit confused which PSU i should get.
I want the PSU to have reliabilities to survive many years,, when i upgrade my system down the road (maybe in 2 years or so), i wanted the PSU to last that build, and hopefully another one after that as well.
Initially, i was deadset on getting Seasonic G-550. but there is no availability for the item here
i could stretch my budget a bit,, im thinking of going Corsair RM550 Gold ($147) because it's optimized for silence and im building a quiet pc, but from reviews.. im really really worried abt getting Corsair RM due to its capxon capacitors...
another alternative im thinking of getting is the Seasonic X560 ($172), but $145 is my maximum limit for PSU..., secondly im concern about coil whine on X series that i read on some online forums...
another alternative i could get is going Seasonic G series but go higher, there is stock for Seasonic G650 ($147) i heard. the cons of Seasonic G650 is that it's probably overkill for my PC build thats all.
All the PSU above is within my budget except for Seasonic X560... i'm willing to pay for X560 if its leaps and bounds more reliable than the rest because i want to use the PSU for at the very least 5 years down the road.
Which one of these in normal situations will be more reliable / last longer and fit my needs of quiet and reliability...?
cheers
