Which PSU should I get?

You can look at Corsair RMx or EVGA G3 if you are that worried

Hi guys!

 

A little while ago, I got the recommendation of buying an EVGA G2 PSU for my new build. However, I fell upon this post about some problems with (potentially) the whole G2 lineup.

So I instead looked for a G3, but these are sold out everywhere in my country, so that's not an option either.

 

My question is, what should I get instead? I would really like something of about the same quality and efficiency (>= 80+ gold). I am going for something around 650W.

 

Any help is much appreciated!

Sorry, stupid question, but can I/how do I mark a thread as solved?

 

Edit: Nvm, marked response as best answer.

I don't believe the G2 suffers from the same issues as the Leadex as they aren't completely identical.
