Which Modular PSU?

I'm using the HX850 with the 4GHz i7 bundle, and 2GTX275s, it's been rock solid, quiet, and doesn't produce much heat. The cables are good, (although it came with a dodgy main power lead, but I've got plenty of them knocking about).
 
CPC rates the BeQuiet rather highly. However its really a toss up between that and the Corsair for me. Wouldn't get the Coolermaster however.
 
I use the Coolermaster 520Watt M520, so if the 850Watt is any bit as good as that then i'd personally recommend you go for that - however i have no experience with the other 2 so its a pretty biased opinion :)
 
Only trouble with the Corsair warranty is that you have to send the PSU to Holland if its outside the first year - not cheap to do and very inconvenient.
I'm using a Corsair in one rig at the moment and it's been great, but the RMA system may may put me off buying another in favour of a manufacturer with a more UK-friendly RMA system in case things do go wrong.

Agreed, otherwise there would be almost no reason not to get Corsair. But still, corsair or be quiet imo
 
I am using the 850w Be Quiet! PSU for my i7 rig, and it is a really nice unit, all cables except the 20+4pin ATX connector are modular which is really good...

I also hear a lot of people recommending the HX series from Corsair as well..

As for the Coolermaster one, I haven't really heard a lot about those so I can't really comment on them...

You wouldn't be dissapointed with the Be Quiet PSU.. the modular cables are great, and the power cable is really high quality to, it isn't like any PSU power cable I have seen before...

I don't know if the HX850 has the same flat modular cables like the HX1000, I really like the idea of those flat cables, they would be a lot easier to keep tidy I would have thought..
