What are your full system specifications and upgrade intentions?

Where are you buying from and what is your budget?

How do you value noise, modularity, efficiency?

Is lightning, brownouts, or voltage drops common where you live?

I wanna buy from cooler master or Corsair, budget: $180, noise: kinda quiet, just not too noisy, fully modular( semi is okay), 85% efficiency or better please. I live in Florida so lightning is common voltage drops i don’t know. Just added the specs btw

Judging by the Amazon.com links, I'm assuming it's the US? 

The RM550x is available for $70 after rebate . The Whisper M 550W is available for $79 without rebate.
