Hello guys!

 

As the title says I am in a weird position now, I have a CX430 from Corsair and as I was building my first PC I chose this PSU, becouse of the good price and few other things like sleeves on cables and 80+ bronze grade. But my case (CM K350) Isn`t the best for cable management, but as far as my back panel closed I put almost all the cables there + some additional in cd drive space ( I don`t have one and I dont really see a reason to get one :D). Today I was watching all the awesome builds on this forum some of them were very clean, I know that with $500 PC I wont achieve perfect tidyness, but I did my best. Now I`m thinking to sell my old (8month) PSU and get the same one but modular version. Thoughts?

If your case isn't good for cable management then why do you need a modular psu. You could get the corsair cx430m

I thought that CX430M Is a modular PSU, AFAIK modular is the ones where you connect cables that you need and leave unnececary ( hard word ) cables in the box, so you can manage them more easily. My case isnt perfect for cable management, but it`s not awful, it has holes for it, just the space between back panel and mobo panel (you know what I`m talking about) isn`t the widest :D

 

EDIT: Didnt you same two same things in your post? :D "why do I need a modular PSU" and offered me a modular PSU? :D

It's not fully modular, for a good fully modular psu, i would suggest a evga g1 650w psu
