Cooler Master MWE Gold 850w V2 for S$145 vs Super Flower Legion GX Pro 850w 80+ Gold for S$139

 

S$6 is nothing, but I simply want to know what should I expect if I go with the Super Flower one or the CM one?

Which is "technically" or "hardware-wise" better? Or is there no difference at all?

Instincts tell me Super Flower, because from what I have heard the MWE series from Cooler Master has fans that sound... not poggers. Super Flower is an OEM for many other brands such as EVGA, while I always have associated CM products as less premium.

Ohhhhkay, so SuperFlower then?

Both use LLC and DC to DC topologies. Personally, I would go for MWE v2 because I couldn't find any reviews for Legion.

 

But, are there any other options?

There are other options but those are ~S$50 more, which is over the budget
