CX is their general entry-level series. GS is an improved version of the same PSUs, with better components, longer warranty etc.; they're also targeted at gamers, with LEDs and such..

Such calculators usually calulate the lowest power consumption of the rig. Under load during gaming the power needed will if more . Also , it pays to have a little headroom for further up gradation .

I agree, its better to shell out a few bucks more instead of buying a whole new PSU later, also who knows about the pricing it may increase.

Gs series is better than cx one in efficiency and reliability.so gs > cx

or get seasonic s12 520w (5year warranty)

if your buying from online stores, go for a reliable one, not the cheapest. reliability counts.
