S, u r.

Actually, I'm old fashioned. I don't even do that with a cell SMS.

Here's the problem guys. vasanthancs is obviously in India. Good parts are expensive there. Even cheap parts are expensive there.

Suggest me anyone of the following PSUs
1 . Cooler Master GX 550 PSU (RS-550-ACAA-E3)
2 . Corsair 550W Power Supply (CMPSU-550VX)
3 . Antec BP550 Plus 550W Modular Power Supply

Which one will suit my config ???

Any of them will work for you. but I'd pick either of the Corsair or Antec.

1a. Corsair 550w. 80+, made by Channel Well Tech, great track record.
1b. Antec 550w BP. 80+, made by Delta, modular

The Cooler Master 550 is made by AcBel (not a plus, just noting), it is also 80+, but didn't find a review on a quick search. Found the 750w and it faired well with a negative few points that the Corsair or Antec don't have.

The Corsair VX550 would be an appropriate choice. It can easily power a pc system with any single video card made.

Corsair is a brand that has a reputation for high quality power supplies that consistently earn high marks in technical reviews. They are reliable, stable, and in the USA they come with a 5 year warranty.

Both Corsair VX550W and Antec BP550 cost same price .....
But Antec 550BP is Modular and Corsair 550W VX is NonModular ......
So which one should i choose ??

 

[JohnnyLucky]

Corsair.

The Antec model is part of the old Basiq series which isn't that good. The current (amps) on the +12 volt rails is overstated.

 

[obsidian86]

the antec earthwatts 650 is bout the same price as the vx550
