Hey all,i am deciding to get a new PSU as mine is having constant surges when playing games etc. I have been looking to see which one i should get and the corsair 750m took my eye as it is cheap ad should be enough wattage for my rig. i just want to see what people think of it and/or should i get a different PSU?

 

Thanks all

It's good but often not that good of a value.

Where are you shopping/located? Budget? What are you powering?

A 750w is overkill even for sli? Are you planning to sli?

A decent 500w would be plenty. Budget?

Good and not that good. GS and CX series from corsair are the low end. They are not as bad as some other PSU, like Tt.

But, the price not that great,unless you bought then on sale, like $30.

750W is a lot for a PC with single GPU (even 290x). If me, I will buy Antec, Seasonice, and Cooler Master. They are good for the price.
