Mushkin HP-450AP or the Corsair CX-430?

I have a C2D-E6600/SuperMicro C2SEE cpu/mobo combo with 4GB ram and an ATI 4550 graphics card. So a lower power system. I have these two PSU's in front of me. Which one is more reliable? Thanks for your input.

It looks like the Corsair model may be made by Seasonic or Channel Well.

So the corsair it is then. The only beef I have with it is that I want a modular PSU, my needs are minimalistic. 2 HDD's (SSD+500GB HDD) and 1 DVD-RW and the mobo cable. Thats it.

But out of those two, the Corsair.

The 430 is Channel Well Unit, and unforuntately, its not as good as the old 400 Unit.

Sadly Corsair has some newer models out now that are not as good as there older models.


I just stick with Seasonic, have for 10 years and will continue to, as they've never let me down. (XFX uses all seasonic btw)

Yes this is very true, seasonic is never a bad choice. And the new XFX PSU's look damn good, my girlfriend has a 650w XFX XXX edition PSU and now i want one but a 850w unit.
