Last PSU Question

I just need my last one question answered before I starts buying parts.

Its come down to a Corsair CX600 (65$CAD) or an XFX TS 550W(80$CAD)

The build is going to be an I5-4690k(Want to OC), z97 board, SSD, 8GB ram, Windforce R9 280X(Maybe OC depending on temps).

 

Would these two PSU's power the system?, Which one would be better? Is the 15$ difference worth and get the XFX unit or save and get the Corsair one instead?

The XFX is miles ahead. Get that.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

Unless you like your house burning along with that corsair CX builder series power supply I would get the XFX 10/10 times no matter what.
