I'm looking for PSU, and I'm pretty much convinced I'm going with Corsair.  I have a question about the 2 different model lines.  You have a RM and CS line.  Between the two, which one is better.  Granted it's only a $10 difference.  I'm just curious is their anything else?  Thanks in advance.

they have a cx line
and a cs line

 the rm is fully modular.  the rm has a 5 year the cs has a 3 year warranty.  

 what do you want to run?  some corsairs suck with a sic miner cubes and I have a corsair new in box that I tested for new egg and did a review. I ran it for 3 days then boxed it up I have yet to list it

 I would sell it cheaper then anywhere you can buy it. I have the 650 rm.  new egg has it for 119.99 plus 5 to ship.  my cost was 0 and it is taking up space. as long as you are usa based I can sell it for  way less then 125 usd.

if you go to new egg you can see my review on it.

E........  Review


5 out of 5 egg
sGood PSU I rate it 4.5 eggs
This review is from: CORSAIR RM Series RM650 650W ATX12V v2.31 and EPS 2.92 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Full Modular Active PFC Power Supply
Pros: I am an Eg..... reviewer.

It is a Corsair what does that mean pretty good service for RMA if you need that.
You get a nice long 5 year warranty. I have never RMA'd a corsair PSU but I did have 2 bad ssd's back in the day when ssds were cutting edge. Corsair did fast warranty replacement for the two of them.
It is fully modular . So if you are like me and want a small powerhouse build with very little wires this is a good unit to pick. I put this in a cooler master elite 120 with my
AsRock itx-e board.

I used an intel i7 3770t cpu.
a sapphire hd7970 gpu
a samsung blu ray player
a crucial msata
