Tagan Stone Rock TG500-U37 500 Watt
Warranty : 1 Year

Seasonic Bronze S12II 430Watt
Warranty : 3-years

Same Price.
GDU 4670 512mb ddr3.

Choose in regards of warranty and regardless of warranty.
 
Solution
Definitely the Seasonic, the warranty aside, it is generally higher quality and the S12II is one of the products thats so good it almost cant get better.

Tagan is alright, but sometimes a hit or miss, best case is that it matches the Seasonic, but then it has a shorter warranty.

Yes, besides the Seasonic has 2 rails of 17A while the Tagan has 2 rails of 18A, not a great difference considering ones rated 70W over the other (though the Seasonic do have a lower combined maximum, but unless you're powering crazy high-end stuff you wont need more power than that.).

"(though the Seasonic do have a lower combined maximum, but unless you're powering crazy high-end stuff you wont need more power than that.)"


you mean to say that tagan has good and higher efficiency than seasonic then why should i choose seasonic when both r at same price.

Efficiency? Ive never said anything about that.

That just meant the Seasonic is rated to produce less power, perhaps to match the 430W rating. It has nothing to do with efficiency, more with Seasonic's marketing. Besides, this also means you having a overload zone just incase anything goes wrong. There is a high chance of the Tagan is overated anyways.

Trust me (and alot of other people on this forum), You wont go wrong with a seasonic.

one last doubt abt antek. smbdy said antec is at the top.
seasonic over antec is ok considering seasonic is little costlier around 4$.

Antec/Seasonic/Corsair/PC Power&Cooling/Enermax are brands that you cant go wrong with and to me they are mostly on par. Just pick one you like.
