Link to both the thermaltake and the corsair you are looking at. There have been 3(4?) versions of the CX430 and there is no Smart SE 520, there are 3 different SMART (SE) 530W PSUs though, all of varying ability.

First, reading comprehension is great! Those aren't links...... They are model numbers but also don't convey where you can buy from or how much they cost.


Second, the CX430 V2 was very good but is also only a 430W PSU, the SPS-530M is brand new and hasn't been reviewed yet, but it is a gold rated CWT unit. If you are seeing it in the same price range as the CX430V2 that tells me that they cut a lot of corners on part selection.

What are you powering with all of this? The CX430V2 is a good unit if you aren't powering a discrete graphics card that needs a power plug, but if you are you need more.
