Well, between the HX and XStream, the HX is clearly the better of the two since the HX is a gold-certified unit which is guaranteed to work up to 50C from tier one on the PSU list while the XStream is only a bronze-certified unit that barely meets its specifications at 40C.

The HX is by far the better (Seasonic OEM, I think) Gold rating is good, decent capacitors is much better. I'd certainly use this PSU if someone gave it to me, it's just that I would not pay over $100 for it.

The PSU has only two PCI-e cables, so some GPU configurations may not work, and the fan can be loud.
