Hello,

I have to buy a new PSU for my computer and I am undicided. My two choices are Enermax Revolution X't 530W and Seasonic M12II 520 Evo. Enermax PSU is 80 plus gold and Seasonic is 80 plus bronze, but people say that Seasonic capacitors are better. What's the better choice? The price difference is less than 10€.

Thanks

if it fits in your budget.

Performance (40% of the final score) - you probably already know what I'm going to say here. Voltage regulation was excellent, averaging 0.9% in the hot box. No points deducted. Efficiency was a pass for Gold both times. No deduction. Ripple control was amazing, and probably the best I've ever seen, so definitely no deduction there. I saw no issues with anything else, so this unit gets a 10 here.

Functionality (20% of the final score) - this unit gets everything right. Even the CPU cable, which I thought was terrible on the 650W, is done right here today. Semi fanless mode works well, the manual is decent, we got lots...

Semi fanless mode works well, the manual is decent, we got lots of connectors to power anything a 550W unit should power, and the box came with more goodies than I tend to expect with such a small unit. 10.

Value (20% of the final score) - you can get one of these for $84.99 at Newegg right now. That's a fair bit for a unit this size these days, but as always EVGA is right at the bottom of the cost pile when it comes to 80 Plus Gold and full modularity. The nearest competition is their own 550W GS unit at one dollar more money. This is nuts. How are you making any money on these, EVGA? 10.

Build Quality (20% of the final score) - oh, snap... EVGA just got another perfect total score. There's nothing wrong with this unit. Nothing. 10.

or that seasonic m12ii is also great but not as excellent as this one.

Evga PSU looks incredible. I think I'll buy it, so can I pay a little more money for more quality. Thanks for your answer superninja12!
