Seasonic are generally the best and manufacture components/ units for other companies such as some 'corsair', 'Antec' etc that are just re skinned seasonic PSU's 

So then I'll try to stretch my budget as far as I can to get that PSU, since there aren't many alternatives at that pricepoint here. Thanks to all of you guys, I really appreciate your help.

Though it isn't like that with everything, for instance I paid $100 for a Corsair Carbide 400C, which is the exact same price as the MSRP in the US, and the same applies to virtually all mainstream CPUs. There are a few components that are overpriced for some reason, such as PSUs and RAM.

$110-ish: Seasonic S12ii 520W, Corsair VS650W, NZXT Hale82 V2 550W, EVGA 600B, other brands not worth mentioning.

$120: Thermaltake Smart 750W, other brands not worth mentioning.

$130: NZXT Hale82 V2 700W, Seasonic M12ii 620W Evo, XFX TS Bronze 750W.

$140: Corsair CX650M, Thermaltake Smart M750W, Cooler Master GX 750W.

Then prices jump to $170 and above, so there isn't much variety here.

Corsair only has sold 16 Seasonic PSU models, only 2 of which are still readibly available, and corsair has released 128+ PSU models.(Source http://www.realhardtechx.com/index_archivos/Page447.htm)

88 PSUs (more than 2/3rds) of Corsair's line-up are CWTs, so it isn't even like Corsair's main OEM is Seasonic, and Corsair's highend are mostly Flextronics and CWT

hence 'some'

Seasonic manufacture many of the high end model for various brands however, they don't make all PSUs for everyone lol
