Need 500W PSU for my build.
Was thinking to buy :confused:

corsair cx500 :confused:

but then red few bad reviews about it.
Is it worth to buy it?
Or maybe someone can recommend better PSU for around £40-£50 ?

+ 1

But - what spec are you looking at using the PSU with?

Don't think you can beat the SuperFlower at that price. Should do fine for most single GFX card setups.

The specs are
CPU: AMD Piledriver FX-6 Six Core 6350 Black Edition 3.90GHz
GPU: Sapphire Radeon R9 270X Boost OC 2048MB
RAM: Corsair Vengeance Blue 8GB (2x4GB)

The Superflower 450W would be absolutely fine for that build.
