I agree, but the corsair does have an appropriate price tag. It's also a corsair unit, and one thing special about them is they die quietly. Unlike most other lower tier units. It's also good enough for usually 18 months or so by which time (preferably sooner) op can afford a psu that'll actually live up to the quality standards of the rest of the build.
Yeah, it sucks, but it's only a band-aid. Hopefully it'll be replaced before op finds out that its a waste of money in the first place.
