XFX PSU

[AC-3]

Hey, I bought a XFX Core Edition for my Haswell platform. My PSU broke (my own fault) and I orderd the same one. But they sent me a TS 650 instead of the Core Edition. I've read the Jonnyguru review, and it actully got a better build quality. But is there a big diffrence? I know it's Haswell certified, but never had a problem with the old one. I really think the TS looks like shit compared to the Core. I can get the Core if I want, but is it worth it?

 

And what is meant by "Rattle rattle bang bang" in the reviews, I've seen it on other reviews too

I think they are the same internally although not 100% sure. I wouldn't worry about it as it is still a good Seasonic made unit.

 

@quan289 Would be the best person to ask.

I think "rattle rattle bang bang" refers to the loud fan?

 

It's a Seasonic S12 so it's a fine unit, have no worries about that.
