Yes, judging by toms hardware people say those PSUs are not very good. Although for a system as low-power as his, it'll be fine. In fact the system he has could probably run totally fine on a crappy dell PSU. Although the seasonic PSU would allow him to upgrade his system further. 

 

to OP, get the seasonic one if you plan to upgrade later. But the corsair PSU will work fine for his system if he wants to save a few bucks.

I looked at psu tier list of our forum

I would always advise to get a good PSU, that's capable of not using fan to a certain temp or %power as well if you want a more "silent" build. So if you have a system that would draw around 200 watts, I would go for a 450, 300 watts 650 etc and get a reliable brand like EVGA that comes with a good warranty of 7/10 years, works out much cheaper if you're spreading the cost of it through that many years of usage or several builds. My PSU hasn't spun up it's fan yet since I've had it, and I know my PSU is overkill for my system, but I also know I will re-use this PSU in at least several more builds as this is my main PSU, if I keep this build, I will put my second best PSU into this case when I make a new main PC build.

Please quote my post, or put @paddy-stone if you want me to respond to you.

Where are you from exactly? I know you aren't from the NA, as you was looking at the Corsair VS650 in another thread. Would it be correct of me to assume that you are from India from your name? I'm asking because certain countries' availability and pricing my differ a lot, and I don't want to simply recommend something that you can't get.

 

If you are from India, I would recommend the Cooler Master GXII Storm Edition 550w if you can get it here.

You could get by with a fairly cheap PSU for your system. As others have asked, where are you from? India is probably my best assumption. I don't know your budget but judging by the specs of the system you're building, an expensive PSU is probably A. Not in the budget and B. Not really necessary.

I found this. Does it fit your budget?
