Selling an old PC, trying to decide which PSU to sell and which to keep.
My old PSU is a Corsair HX520, which was a really good PSU at the time, and is also modular:

New PSU that I picked up for cheap:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N9X3F8F/ref=twister_B01G69E69E
Being modular isnt the biggest deal to me, but im wondering is a newer cheap PSU today better than a more expensive one from the past?
Both systems that the PSU will be in are roughly the same:
computer im selling:
Q6600
gtx 560ti
computer that im keeping
G4560
gtx 670
Which PSU is better? And would it be a better bet to keep the newer one since the old one might die of old age.
