The only one in the list i would avoid is the RM the rest are good units.

@bignastyid which one should I get????

hasten · Aug 1, 2015

Buy any Seasonic or Super Flower made power supply. Both provide OEM for many manufacturers (EVGA, XFX) and you would be able to find a reasonably priced unit. Of what you listed I would only purchase the HXi, but would recommend an EVGA 850g2 over any of those. 850w, Super Flower guts, 10 yr warranty and $129.99 after rebate...

avionblues :

The HXi would be the best out of the 4, 2nd would be the Coolermaster, 3rd would be the Antec, and the RM is a distant 4th.

bignastyid :

Just an FYI I think that HXi is a Channel Well (I know that the upper range of HXi are) which is also a very good OEM. My opinion only I would still look for a Seasonic or Super Flower guts PSU. People are raving fans of those 2 companies for a reason...

hasten :

All the HXis are made by CWT. The Antec HCG is made by Delta(another top manufacture) and Coolermaster V is made by Seasonic. Not all CWT built units are good, the Corsair CX series is a good example of a not so good CWT built unit.

so I should get hxi one then????
btw thanks all for the help and suggestions
how about corsair ax 760,I dont want to spend much but if there is drastic difference between hxi and ax then only I will consider it

avionblues :

Any 650w or larger PSu from Tier 1 and 2 would easily be able to power the system.

The Corsair HXi is tier 1
The Coolermaster V is tier 1
The Antec HCG is tier 2
The Corsair RM is tier 3

Wow, the Cooler Master is made by Seasonic?? I tend to stay away from anything CM other than a mechanical keyboard... is the CM V series using the Seasonic X guts?

And you could do far worse than a CX
