[Ruwan969]

Hi everyone ,

Whats your budget?

go for a Evga G2/G3, Corsair RMx/RMi if you can afford. Also what parts are in your build? 550 watt should be enough for most builds.

If youre on a tighter budget a CX450M or 550 watt version, or a Seasonic M12II/S12II would be good.

What kind of Corsair 750W? There's many different models.

 

Rosewill Capstone is a very solid PSU, made by Super Flower (top tier OEM like Seasonic)

They're both overkill honestly, I'd choose neither and get a different one.

But if theyre definitely the only 2 options, the CX750M, assuming its a grey label, will be just fine.

Capstone is much better than CX.

Thats true but the CXm will do just fine. If he wants best quality then the capstone would be a better choice (all be it, only 1 tier better)

I personally don't see the point in paying an extra $50 to go up 1 tier. Especially when it could be changed to a tier 1 RM550x for the same price, if not cheaper.

Unless they plan to SLI, upgrade, and/or overclock in the future. With the system as-is, quality over quantity for the PSU. 

 

Keep in mind Capstone comes in lower-wattage variants as well.

He's already said that those 2 are his only options (for whatever reason)

 

Comes down to OP's choice really, both will be good for the build, but is it worth it to him to spend $50 for a bit better quality and unneeded wattage.
