I'd go for the SeaSonic because apparently the CX isn't designed for heavy use or gaming.

Either one is fine, just get whichever is cheaper.

 

On a side note though, if you could I'd try to get a 1600 instead of a 1500x.

CXM grey sticker units are fine, assuming this one is one of them it's fine.

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

And make sure you do it by hitting the quote button at the bottom left of my post, and not the one inside the editor!

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

Seasonic unit definitely. Although I'd recommend an S12ii over those for the price

I have a question. I'm on a budget, should I go with 

Seasonic S12II-520 Bronze 520 Watt for 54 €

Corsair VS-Series 450 Watt  for 38€

Corsair VS 550W for 46 €

 

The graphics card will be either 1050ti, RX 470(570) or RX 480(580).

S12II is much better.
