Any info on Corsair VS650?

[Sycro]

I've been eyeing this PSU for my build but it doesn't have the 80+ certificate. I trust it's not a fireworks box because it's Corsair, however I'd like to know if anyone has had any experience with it to know if it's trustworthy.

If you can get something like an EVGA or XFX PSU they would be a much better option the entry level VS and CS/CX series aren't know to be the best quality PSU's out there.

Been looking and so far the options seem a bit steep but reachable, guess I'll save up a bit more.

Those are the ones I found available and somewhat reachable.

Sorry, newbie here, didn't know, so thanks for the tip. I didn't want to spend over 60€ on the PSU, was looking for above 600W and non-modular (purely due to price).
