Corsair power supply

[Babayaya]

Hello

 

I live in a place where the only good power supplies are Corsair's, the rest are some weird brands which are really cheap.. 

the AX860i and HX850i are possible to buy but it would take about 2-4 weeks to arrive, but the RM1000 is available atm.. 

question is, is it worth waiting those 2-4 weeks in which i sit without a pc since no power supply(the rest components i have)? 

or i can get this RM1000 and it doesn't really matter.. even tho its a little overkill for the system i have:

i7 4790k 

2x sli gtx 970

 

what should i do

I personally couldnt wait that long, if you have the money, go for it! you havbe plenty of room to upgrade hardware

If money is tight, wait. If not get the RM1000w.

I agree with @Bittenfleax  

 

or you could buy the 1000 watt  use it for 2 weeks and return it when your other arrives

Can you provide a link to the store you are able to buy from?

I doubt it will be of any help lol since its a Russian store in Russia..

Price wise the RM1000 and the HX850i and the AX860i are all the same price.. question is just what is better?

Also, lets say i wait it out, which is better to take ax860i or hx850i?

Do NOT get the RM1000. Both the HX and AX are better built, you don't need the extra wattage anyways.

 

Or take a look into this one

Are there any other stores you can buy from? Whose decent selection doesn't consist of only Corsair and Fractal?

The HX850i has a better FDB fan as opposed to the mid-range Yateloon 2BB fan; however, the AXi does offer better build quality, electrical performance, and more control over Corsair Link. If they are in the same price point, I would go for the AXi. The RM1000, on the other hand, is a lower-end unit than the HX850i and AX860i. It uses lower quality components and perform worse electrically.

 

You could power your system with a 650-750w, btw.

The Fractal Design Integra M 750w may be a good option for 5590RUB: http://technopoint.ru/catalog/i25519612/blok-pitaniya-fractal-design-integra-m

They're overkill and unnecessarily overpriced though. I'd suggest taking another look at quan's suggestion.
