Question about PSUS

[Fog]

hey guys.

I saw the Corsair CX430V2. IT was recommended by many people. But the VS450 is 450 watts and its cheaper, so how is CX420v2 better than it?

Just wattage doesn't matter, quality of components also matter. For example, corsair GS700 costs less than TX650V2. Same is in your case.

Depends on your budget and the wattage you need.

Actually, it depends on a lot on your system configuration but I am surprised that even in this day of age people buy a good power supply AFTER buying a rig.

dunno really, but isn't Corsair VS450 refurbished?

^^ NO. You have wrong idea.
VS450 is Asia only low end model and is not 80+ certified, whereas CX430V2 is.
