So I posted earlier this week of my new build. First I got criticism for the psu powering everything. I didn't really do much about it until the darn thing started giving me some epic coil whine under load. It's a corsair cx750m. I'm running a amd fx 6300 (upgrade to 8350 is on its way), msi Radeon R9 390 gpu, I want to stick around the same price as the cx750m but willing to spend a little extra. Microcenter is allowing me to return the psu this weekend. I was told the EVGA gq850. Is that okay?

Microcenter only I guess?

You'd save some money for other things picking the GQ 650

I don't like sjipping, too problems in the past. Microcenter is all I got lol. If there's a good deal online I will consider it. But again hate shipping lol.
