XFX XTR vs Superflower Leadex

Scottland · 15 Jul 2015 at 11:45

Hi,

I've narrowed it down to one of the 2 above PSU's - both of the 750w flavour.

They both cost the same, and have the same 5 warranty as far as I can tell. The XFX is based on the Seasonic G series, which seems well regarded - and the Superflower also well regarded.

So, is there any performance reason I should go for one over the other? And which of the 2 is the quietest? The XFX has a 135mm fan, so in theory should be cooler and quieter - but I know that's not always the case.

Thanks

Neither. The EVGA Supernova G2 750w is what I would recommend. It is built by Superflower and is basically the Leadex Gold with a different fan, no tacky led's and a whopping 10 year warranty. It also has a hybrid fan mode. Review here.

Ok thanks for that - LED light's aren't a massive issue but if the fan is better(135mm?) and the extra warranty is good sound. I knew the G2 was Superflower based but assumed it was the same.

Either will do, the G2 is possibly worth the extra £15 due to having a long 10 year warranty.

I would get this at the price they are offering this week:

Made by Seasonic so you know it will be top quality.
