Which Psu is ''better'' the Corsair RM 650 Watt or the Bequiet 580 Watt Straight Power. 

I want a silent and good performing Psu.

Thanks for your Answers !

No clear "better" here, both are great.

 

If one is significantly cheaper, I would go for that. Otherwise I'd be looking at the BQ one, since they have a reputation for being pretty quiet, and that RM650 is a bit sketchy to me (but take that with a grain of salt)

What is your build? You could get this http://pcpartpicker.com/part/seasonic-power-supply-ss520fl2 but it might be to small

 

I would go with the RM650 because the cables are so much nicer. 

Thanks for you answer.

The Seasonic Psu's aren't available where I want to buy my components

Fully-modular or Semi-modular?

Seasonic G is semi. M12ii is fully-modular.

Both units Lee listed are fully-modular.

 

RM Series is not bad. It should last its 5 year warranty and provide good performance. It's simply overpriced for the low quality secondaries included, and I wouldn't expect them to survive beyond 5 years.
