can you guys share the UL numbers of the psu you have , read the first link on this page you will know what i mean.

the cm extreme i just burnt doesnt have one ,its fake :(

i cant find cx400 data. if you have cx400 please shre its UL number.

seasonic 380w would not hold gts 450 or 550 . those are the minimum gpu i want.

do you guys know whats the best deal for vx450w if so please post links.

if you are that particular , iam sorry , i meant to say gts450 and the card that will replace it. since 560 is true , so its possibble 450's succesor will be 550.

and my assumption was true:
Geforce GT 550 and 530 coming in Q1 11

now my problem is it is not necessary that cx 400 will be able to handle 550 if it can handle 450. so what should i go for in such a scenario?

Just for the note, Seasonic has been the OEM for most of Corsair's quality PSU.

Like I had mentioned above, you can go for Seasonic S12II 520w @ 4.2k.

corsair vx550 > seasonic s12ii bronze 520w > corsair vx450 > seasonic si12ii 430w ~ corsair cx400 > seasonic s12ii 380w

all quality PSUs...difference is not big.

s12ii and s12ii bronze are different series.
