¿Antec vs Seasonic?

Hey guys im going to change my old EVGA PSU its been like 2 years now and it started to coil whine a little bit. 
Im not running a power hungry platform but its AMD so well.. you know what i mean. 

So, i saw this 2 options, 

https://www.amazon.com/Antec-Current-ATX12V-850-HCG-M/dp/B00BT6O2TY/ref=sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1469201043&sr=1-2&keywords=antec 

And this one 

https://www.amazon.com/Seasonic-M12II-620-BRONZE-SS-620GM2/dp/B003HE260I/ref=sr_1_10?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1469201193&sr=1-10&keywords=seasonic

They got pretty similar price, but im not sure which is the best option, i know Seasonic is like the king of kings on the PSU World but dat price on that Antec 850 is killer and i know its a pretty nice PSU too. 

sooo, any suggestions?

Both are equal good. Get whichever one is cheaper.

You don't need 850W.

Get seasonic.

Both are a Seasonic M12 but one provides more wattage. If you have one GPU you really don't need more than the 620W variant.
