Modular modular modular

The first link seems to be a calculator or something weird... doesn't link to a product...

 

Modular means that can be separated in parts, in this case cables can be attached and de-attached from the PSU = better cable management, nothing different to other PSUs on functionality

  

Can't view the first one, you need to change the link, it's on a login page.

  

If you're mad about cable management then go for a modular or semi modular PSU.

 

If your case has space to stuff unneeded cabled and that doesn't bother you then non modular is the way.

y u no get this http://www.egprices.com/en/product/seasonic-eco-600w-psu-maximum-hardware

its basically a seasonic S12II 620W modified for the Asian market

 

Seasonic's ECO series is 200-240v ac input only so they aren't available worldwide. That's why you won't find any reputable reviews for it. 

It's good and easily better than the cx600.

review of it : http://www.ocfreaks.com/forums/f95/seasonic-eco-600w-technical-report-2341/

 

 

but if you want modular then cx600m or seasonic m12ii 620w 80PLUS Bronze
