XFX or SuperFlower 550W PSU?

ileteguzi · Apr 14, 2015

Hello,

I would like to buy new PSU for PC and need some advices about it.

Should I go with XFX TS 550W 80+ bronze ( series: p1-550s-gren, is that lowest 550w psu from xfx?) or SuperFlower golden green 550W 80+ gold

Want run i5 4460, gtx 970, 2x4gb ram 1600mhz and few HDDs, not yet SSD

heck if you can afford it the SuperFlower is top dog, although xfx would still be plenty and last long time too.

XFX is made by Seasonic
go for the superflower because its gold efficiency

I've only heard good things about SUper FLower, XFX s a mixed bag - depending on the model.

You can look it up on JonnyGuru's site or this list: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html

The new list is not as easy to understand as the old one, unfortunately.

XFX is manufactured by SeaSonic. New models should not be a "mixed bag". SeaSonic is a very reputable maker of power supplies.

Cannot find anything about XFX's model: p1-550s gren, only few reviews about p1-550s-xxb9

The superflower is superior but with such a low power build just get whichever is cheaper

LucoTF :

SuperFlower can get for 85$ and XFX for 70$, guess 15 bucks worth to have gold psu, right?

ileteguzi :

If thats the case, then yes the gold is definitely worth it if you want to save power and better quality. However that seems like a steep price

Any 550+ wattage psu from Antec/Seasonic/XFX/Evga b2/g series/Superflower/Rosewill capstone series are all good psu and will last you long time, also can handle most any single gpu setup out there.

I should not have any problems with SuperFlower and my build even with temperatures in room beyond 30 degrees and the PSU can handle water cooling system one day?

Where are you from? You can get a XFX 550w for $37 after rebates if you are in the US:
