Hello guys I need help for my new PSU.
At the Tierlist on LinusTechTips Vengeance is Tier One but I have not seen it on any other tierlist. So which one of these should I go for?(I am guessing Seasonic but as I said, dont know if Corsair is better.)
Seasonic M12II-620 Bronze EVO EDITION: https://seasonic.com/product/m12ii-620-evo/
Corsair VENGEANCE 650M 650W: http://www.corsair.com/en-ww/vengeance-series-650m-650-watt-80-plus-bronze-certified-modular-psu
Thanks guys, really appreciate it!
Edit: Fixed the links, Thermaltake got eliminated. :)

Your links are broken. It looks like you re-copied the shortened links.

However, a score from a professional review site might be better than looking at tier lists. The Corsair Vengeance 650M scored 9.9 at jonnyguru: http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story6&reid=475
I haven't found a review specifically of the Seasonic M12II-620 EVO, but its brother the M12II-850 EVO scored 9.4: http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story6&reid=356
Based on this review of the Thermaltake model you listed:

I'd hesitate to trust it.

Those scores on Jonnyguru are not good for comparing units. For one thing, a score of "9" in 2013 is different than a "9" in 2017. Plus, scores include things like value and often other stuff that may not be so important. At the end of the day the PSUs have to be looked at based on how they perform and are built, the numbers don't do justification.

The Vengenace is the best of those PSUs.

You raise a good point there. Now that you mention it, I remember that at some point, he started scoring against psus for including berg connectors (unless as separate adapters), but others might not care so much about their presence.

Guys I still don't know which one to get. I would really appreciate it if you could give me a definitive answer for the PSU to get. Silent operation is important to me when it comes to a pc build. Btw I fixed the links.

Personally I would choose Seasonic given how long they have been making PSU's and the fact that other companies take Seasonic PSU's and rebadge them as their own products because Seasonic makes such great power supplies.

But it also costs 30 % more. Is it worth it? I don't know. They are both silent PSUs with good power efficiency. I'd say, if you plan to have PSU for 10 years or more, go with corsair, if not, Be quiet will do just fine.

So you are telling me to ditch the plans for the two PSUs mentioned in the original post and get the bequiet model? The other ones were cheaper, but alright. Thx
