Which one should I buy? Corsair CX450 or CX550?

Just now, SavageNeo said:

oh. yeah then i was confused and i am still confused xd. but cx450m has 8pin that splits to two 6+2pin. and cx450 has only 1x8pin?

 

get it now. mayby confused

 

Ok, so the CX450 is an 8 pin (to the PSU) that goes to a single 6+2 PCIe connector, while the CX450M is an 8 pin that goes to 2 6+2 PCIe connectors.

 

None77 was saying to avoid the CX450 since it only has a single 6+2 PCIe connector, but you mistaken the CX450 with the CX450M and tried to "correct" None77's comment.

 

Basically, no one was talking about the CXM, and you confused the two models, which is somewhat easy to do if you aren't paying attention.

 

I hope this clears it up. Have a good day/night.
