Well, they are discontinued. You may be able to find the Seasonic SS-***AT build TXv2, the CWT PUQ-B build TX650v3, Hipro-build TX750/850v3, and TX-M being sold in store though. They say they will keep producing it, if people still buy it, but seeing how the RM is made to replaced the entire TX line, I don't see why they would get it when the price start to settle.

 

Anyways, on top of my head:

TX v1:

650 = Seasonic S12

750/850 = CWT (Channel Well Tech) PSH

950 - CWT DSG

 

TX-C

650-850 = CWT PSH-II

 

TXv2

650-850 = Seasonic SS-***AT

 

TXv3

650 = CWT PUQ-B

750-850 = Hipro.

 

TX-Mv1

650-850 = CWT PSH-III

 

TX-Mv2

650 = PUQ-B

750-850= Hipro

 

RM (which could have been considered to be TXv4 or the fifth TX line...Thank you Corsair for creating a new line for it).

450-650 = CWT... I believe to be a modified PUQ-G unit.

750-850 = Hipro

1000 = CWT

 

BTW, CWT, Hipro, and Seasonic are the actual manufacturer. The bit on "SS-***AT" and such are the platform / model that it is based on internally. For example, the AX750 is the Seasonic X 750 KM2. Each line can have different internal electronic, performance metric, and components choices.
