Hello!

The GREY CXM seires from Corsair is a popular 'on-budget' choice.

It's tier 3.

I've been interested in those for a while now but now, that I've seen some bad reviews about the CXM series im not really into that anymore.. Anyone know anything about the FSP PSU's ? found this partially modular one and it doesnt look like garbage BUT it is not 80plus certified. Would it run fine?

The CXM is going to have bad Newegg and Amazon reviews like anything else. A CX550M would work totally fine for your system. If you could spend a wee bit more an EVGA 750B2 should do you nicely though.
