Corsair VX-550W or Antec EarthWatts 650W???

corsair has single rail, antec has 3, i know cos i have one lol. I love my antec good solid PSU to be honest i doubt you'd have problems with either. Just to make your decision even harder my brother has the VX550 and it's just as solid as the antec :p

Well, i think the decision is about the price "Corsair VX-550" 76,80€, "Antec EarthWatts 650W" 75,00€, and Antec has 45 combined...

So, more opinioes, the Antec or Corsair??


PS - I live in portugal...
 
personally i think if i had to choose again i may of chosen the corsair, because amps you cant just add together so maybe the corsair might have the edge.
 
no, the combined Amperage of Antec EarthWatts 650W is 45FPS...http://www.bit-tech.net/custompc/labs/210672/antec-earthwatts-ea-650.html

But, maybe corsair is more reliable??

Sorry was having a divy moment obviously if you add them you get like 69A, this is why i shouldn't post at work because i clearly can't multi task lol. Well with that info i'd put them pretty level. Corsair has a good warranty, i can't remember what you get with the earthwatts, however if i recall correctly antec does have a UK based RMA centre so that could be handy.

What?

Oh, I'd buy the corsair. Single rail is better than multiple rails, and the 100W difference means minimal amounts. I used this one a few months back and was astonished by the build quality, the more expensive models can only be better.

ooooo forgot to mention corsair looks better (earthwatts= hideous grey box) plus cables are braided unlike on earth watts which only has the main 24 pin cable braided (or unless things have changed since mine). Decision made for ya.

Oh yea JonJ678 didn't you know the earthwatts PSU can give you a 45FPS increase in games :p

Edit: just saw your sig lol
 
A single 12v rail will be better than a combined id have thought, so id go for the Corsair, ive actually got 2x of the vx550's, and they crackers. :)
 
I think the Corsair has a 5 year warranty, PSU's according to research are most llikely thing to pop in PC. So loger warranty equals more security.
