Right, help needed guys.

I have a corsair TX 650 psu but I am about to upgrade my case and at the same time do a new build for my sister in law. To that end I have a OCZ OCZ ModXStream Pro 600w in the post.

Which one should I keep for my system to go into my new shiney Antec 300 case and which one should I stick in ym sister in laws build?

My spec as per signature really. Highly doubt I'll cross fire my 5770 but would like to keep the option open. And I'm not overclocking but again may in the future.

Help much appreciated!

If the corsair is modular, and the cable run length is enough to go through the cable management section of the 300 with some slack then keep it, you may need the extra watts at some point but your sister will not.

I say this because on my older Antec 182, it has a "behind the mainboard" cable management section, and my Corsair 620 (modular) is slightly neat with some cable runs. I could probably get longer cables but *shrug*.

And anyway, I really, really, really rate Corsair PSU's.

;)
 
Yeah, I thought the corsair might come out best, bought a psu extender just in case its a bit short, though hopefully not. Going to make a proper job of the cable management this time.
