Everyone was a noob at the beginning, don't be discouraged by toxic trolls even if u lose 15 times in a row. Keep training and pushing yourself further and further, so u can show those sorry lots how it's done !

@TofuHaroto@Mateyyywhy so?

It depends 

The MWE gold is good 

If it's the bronze or the white the cx550 is just better quality as a whole

I'm only familiar with the CX550(M) and am happy with them in my many builds. I would suggest the non-M if you don't mind the cables, it is supposed to be a better PSU and often a little cheaper.

I brought mine at the end of January this year from Amazon for 5075 INR.

Offline market I got a VS550 for the same price lol. Check both online and offline and then make a decision. 

And the VS are not suitable for a Gaming PC with a GPU like 2060 so don't even think about it. I have seen many Indian sites and some sites selling gaming PCs with the VS550 it's a terrible choice these people are making.

I'm from Goa and my local vendor gave me a VS550 for 5000 INR wheras I got CX550 from Amazon for around same price. 

I had to buy the VS as my CX550 from Amazon was DOA and RMA here in Goa takes 15 to 30 days and I needed the PC immediately to complete some accounts works. 

This was back in Feb 2020 first week and I didn't have my 2060 back then it was a GT 710 so I had no worries of the VS550 affecting my performance.

My vendor offered me R5 2600 for 13000 and R5 3600 for 18000.
