I'm currently shopping online in the local PC components store for a trade-in 600W PSU for my GTX 760 2GB gaming OC in which i go over COOLMASTER. I stumbled upon two kinds of 600W PSUs'.

- COOLER MASTER THUNDER MOD 620W
- COOLER MASTER EXTREME 2 625W

Current PSU : Antec VP450 450W

Well sure the higher watts. is a good choice other than Thunder MOD being a bit pricey than EX 2.
i looked over the specs. and they seemed pretty similar with slight advantages but i want to make sure which one is better. Should i for the Thunder or EX2?

Well aside from the helpful source i can say that i can't judge if the PSU available are within the tier list since most brands are not available here and most are limited stock. aside from Coolmaster (EX2, THUNDER MOD, SILENT PRO M2, GX) GX 650W is a good choice if that's the only answer for the list, Antec with their expensive SLI, HCG & PLATINUM(I can only afford a BRONZE SLI 600w), Thermaltake (LITEPOWER, TPX & SMART), Aerocol X series is also a good choice if i'm not overclocking. I'll try to search more for a tier 2 or at least a tier 3. Thanks for the suggestion mate

found it available in here via Facebook page and it has a good review and comment says it's a good buy with a cheap price. Thanks!, i'll contact the local component shop if they have one, hopefully they won't say "We don't have that, but our branch which is 20miles away from here has it!". :D
