Alright guys, let me do this properly:

 

Is CWT and similar brands like HEC as bad as some people suggest? Some say that they are really crappy and junk, but HEC and CWT make most of the power supplies I have come across. I know that Delta/Seasonic are sort of the best of the best, but I just wanna know what you guys think about CWT, and are they decent?

 

Thanks

They're not super premium but they do make some decent units, they make units for Corsair also who offer them with good warranty.

 

Enermax/Seasonic/Superflower/Flextronics are examples of premium OEMs, and some brands associated with premium OEMs are Corsair, XFX, Silverstone, Antec and EVGA.

Anything that has 5+ year warranty and certification is worth buying imo, all depends on the price.
