Recommend a cheap PSU for a single GPU system

All advice appreciated. Would you get an Antec Neo Eco or an XFX Core edition?

Both are quality Seasonic built power supplies, neither is modular, but the XFX comes with a 5 year warranty as compared to 3 years with the Antec. Then, comparing prices, $75 for the Antec...$59 (after rebate) for the XFX...for me, those two things make the XFX the "no brainer" choice.
XFX all the way.

From Jonny guru:

Summary

Despite going more than a little over the top on the marketing on the box, XFX has a fantastic performer here. This bad boy is stable as can be, reasonably efficient, very clean at the outputs, and the price is already not half bad for one of these. There are a few things I think could use improvement, mostly involving the product packaging, but all told I really have no major complaints that should stop you from buying one. Good job so far, XFX.

The Good:
extremely stable 12V regulation
ripple well under control
passed 80 Plus Bronze in the hot box
lots of connectors

The Bad:
the box doesn't do a lot to protect the unit in shipping

The Mediocre:
the marketing, the marketing, the everlasting unending marketing

Thanks boomer. I was waiting for another sale price of $35 for the neo Eco. I'd be ok paying $10 for an extra 2 years of warranty for the XFX though. Thanks!
