After all I went for the PRIME gx, I think this experience taught me the importance of better build quality. Thanks for all the advices and explanations.

Currently thinking that the Seasonic focus PX 650w is the best choice, but around the same price there is the PRIME gx, how is the prime series better than the focus? And, is the downgrade from platinum of the focus px to gold of the prime gx too big of a downgrade that the focus px is still...
