At the moment I am the owner of two PSUs and I'm not really sure which one should I keep and which one to sell.

The first one is Sirtec - High Power Element BRONZE II 600W

The second one is Cooler Master GX Lite 700W (RS700-ASAB-EU)

I had the Cooler Master in my pc for the last 6 months, and there is nothing bad I can say about it. Absolutely no noise, barely even warm even in stress conditions.

My system is an A10 6700 on an Asus F2A85-v Pro Socket FM2, with a HDD, SSD, a couple of case fans, and a R9270X. I change video cards quite frequently, at one point a few months ago I even ran a crossfire of 7870s.

So my question is, which PSU should I keep? Because my "if it's not broken, don't fix it" mentality tells me not to mess with things and let the Cooler Master be.

I would like to mention I don't care at all about paints and sleeving etc.
 
Solution
Cooler master Power Supply Is Better Quality
The other listed power supply isn't good at all .
Continue to use the cm psu and sell the other
Dont mess with anything


Hi - There no trusted reviews of the GX 700 or the Sirtec. The Sirtec might be ok,
but no way of knowing for sure. The CM GX lite are and the GX series of PSU's are very basic low end
and a couple of them are on the "Lemon List", johnnylucky.org

As long as your using a 270x either will prob be OK

But, if you can afford to do so, you might consider selling both and investing in a known to good
PSU.
