Hey guys, I was surfing the web on craigslist when I found this PSU: http://miami.craigslist.org/pbc/sop/5368789616.html

He's asking 40$, but I think he'll do 30$, but my question is, Is it worth it? And whats the difference between this PSU and this one: http://www.corsair.com/en-us/tx-series-tx650-80-plus-bronze-certified-650-watt-high-performance-power-supply

Thanks in Advance.

I am  MCCCXXXVII

I wouldn't buy a TX. For any price. Some of the higher end Corsairs, EVGAs, Seasonics, XFXs are much, much better

At least its better than a CX psu right?

if it works it's a good option but it's used so buyer beware

What? TX were pretty damn good when they were released, especially the V2s.

QUOTE ME IN A REPLY SO I CAN SEE THE NOTIFICATION!

When there is no danger of failure there is no pleasure in success.

The guy said he won't take 30$, so I guess I'll just leave it for the next guy...

40$ is still a good price for a TX650 brand new.
