I'd definitely choose the XFX XT power supply.

Both are decent the XFX is designed by seasonic a very trusted brand, but manufactured by Shenzhen Rui Sheng Yuan Technology which I have never heard of. The be quiet is designed and manufactured by FSP another trusted brand. Personally I think I would take the be quiet unit. Burt with a lack of professional in depth reviews for either I cant say for sure which is higher quality or which performs better.

Article on the "mystery of the xfx xt line" if you're interested, they also pull the case off and have a look at components: http://www.orionpsudb.com/news/the-mystery-of-xfx-budget-xt-line-solved-oem-and-platform-discovered

if u r on a budget the antec vp450 sure is cheap. if its available, go for it.

There is also the enermax naxn 500w, the price difference is only 0.1 cents

ItsAlex_ :

Try the similarly-priced Corsair CX430 or CX500 and if you want semi-modular then the CX430M or CX500M.
Better quality and better support!

edstargames :

Oh I wouldn't say that, certainly not when it comes to quality. The new black label CX450M and CX550M are pretty good, but the older green label CX units weren't known to be the greatest. I would rather have the XFX XT or the be quiet system power 8 over any green label CX unit.

What about the Enermax NAXM 500W?
I dont know if that is good

edstargames · Feb 24, 2017

ItsAlex_ :

Never heard of it, but my advice is to keep with the mainstream vendors (Seasonic, EVGA, Corsair, Cooler Master, SilverStone)
A PSU is never a component to cheap out on!

ItsAlex_ :

yeah the enermax is good for a non oc build. and u have headroom with 500w.
its also better than the 2 u mentioned

From the looks of it, its not 80+ or anything, dont have any reviews on youtube either, the only review it has is on an indonesian forum
