Hello.
I've been searching for a PSU these days and I found 2 that match my budget.
EVGA 430W PSU for 39.99$ and a Refurbished Corsair TX650W for 42.99$.
I know that Corsair is awesome and that TX650 seems attractive, but, is it ok to buy it?
It have 1 year Warranty from Corsair and 30d refund warranty from newegg, can anyone tell me if is worth a try? and what's the worst case scenario ??

Worst case scenario is that PSU fries your RIG, I would rather be safe than sorry and buy a quality top tier PSU

This seems to be the sweet spot and it is a tier 2A PSU. Will not fry your system and is higher than 430 watts :)

The Corsair TX650 is the better power supply.
