I am now using a 450W Odyssey SMPS .
I would like to change it with a good , silent PSU.
My budget is 3000RS.

Now I am running on AMD Athlon 3000+ processor , NF61S Micro AM2,2GB DDR2,1 DVD RW,500 GB HDD...

I will soon upgrade to an i3 processor with 8GB RAM. (My Cooler Master Elite 431 cabin is on the way)
Haven't decided yet about graphics card...

If my SMPS cant hold my needs , I will change it then again.
For now , tell me a good SMPS which will work in voltage condition of 180 V - 280 V (I don't even know if it is available !!)
That means it should work well without a UPS.
I don't use UPS for the last 2 years.
have small voltage variations here one/two times /day..

Corsair CMPSU-430CXV2UK 430 Watts PSU
or
Corsair VS450 450 Watts PSU
or
Cooler Master Thunder 450W 450 Watts PSU
or
Cooler Master Thunder 500W 500 Watts PSU
or
Cooler Master Extreme II 475 Watts PSU

All from FlipKart...

But the Corsair VS450 ----- ---->(450 Watts) PSU----->costs 2500 approx.

while Corsair CMPSU-430CXV2UK (430 Watts) PSU----->costs 2700

which is less watts in more money
whats the deal in buying a LESSER WATTs psu giving MORE MONEY>?

I think I should go for Corsair CMPSU-430CXV2UK 430 Watts PSU ..
@ dead.night7 : CX 430 V2 has an Input Voltage range of 90 - 264 V . Which CX 450 doesn't have!!

Your concept is wrong. More watts doesnt always imply a better psu.
for example - cx430V2 > vs450 and vx550 > gs600 (all corsair models).

wait, WHAT?
how is the GS600 worse than a VS450? please elaborate for us mere mortals, whose brains just cannot comprehend the divine wisdom of your spectacular statement.

:huh?: When did I say that ?? :confused:


Here I elaborate pour toi -
I gave him 2 examples where a low watt psu is preferred over a higher rated one.
example 1) cx430v2 > vs450 and
example 2) vx550 > gs600
In bracket I mentioned particularly "(all are corsair model numbers)" for better understanding.
Nowhere did I compare the gs600 to the vs450.



P.S - The mortals would be well versed with the simplicity of my statement (example shijilt ^). I cannot speak the same for you - try reading the post twice next time before you post such a TROLL. :nanananana:

Hey then thank you for making me understand that :)
I have no experience in buying PSUs coz rather all these years i have built computers just by having an information of the chipsets and pin models
Never tried to understand that concept of electrical engineering -_-

Now for Corsair V2 430CX I am going to buy from flipkart right this diwali before I fry my components

Anyone, how heavy is that model? Corsair V2 430CX in kgs

Googled it for you >> CX430-V2 weighs between (1.5 - 1.75) kg .... package wt (depends on packing)~ 2 kg.
I am a 1st year B.Tech student. So, Even I don't have in depth knowledge about hardware. The little I've gathered is by reading the sticky threads of the top sites and tons of forums daily.

Never-mind.
Off topic --- Are you a metal head ?? do you listen to cannibal corpse ?? That avatar of yours suggests so.

The Incinerator ^^ CX500 V2 Costs Rs 1000 more than CX430 not few hundreds
But rather I think I have never invested money in power supply :( I thought it was a waste but rather reading the entire post of " the sorcerer " tdf member made me realized that I really shud have made investments in these too :)

My new Corsair CX430 v2 Will come by this Nov. 10th from flipkart thank you @Op for making this thread lol coz I dont know what u have bought but rather I have bought my own :)

Also thank you to @Thetrueblueviking for finding me that I have a bunch of stupid ppl who measure the quality of PSU with its weight, Indeed Good Quality => Good PSU but thank you for finding that one -_-

V2 series come with bronze/silver/gold 80Plus certifications. These certifications cost money if i am not wrong... hence the price.

cx430v2 has bronze 80 plus certification.

I dont think weight of a psu covers any aspect other than comfort and mobility.
You re most welcome :).
