For me if its not tier 1 its damn close.

I still personally think its enough easily,if a 650w is 10-15 euro more then fair play its probably worth it.

IM running a 1700@4ghz & a 580 8gb pulse & full system wattage (under full cpu/gpu stress testing) from the socket has never been over 460w.

So maybe 420-430w in reality for a situation that will rarely if ever happen under real world use.

Yeah there aren’t many reviews, but the ones out rn seem to be great about the vengeance series. Though can’t say the same for cx.
And as you said if the price difference is 10-15 euros going for a 650w isn’t a bad call. Thanks
 


The vengeance is ever so slightly better than the new version cx & cxm's.Bigger hold up cap , better ripple suppression.

I think the vengeance 550 is enough personally (Im not going to change my mind on that) - However if budget is dead strict & say the cxm 650 or cx650 is available for the same price as the vengeance 550w I would take a slight drop on quality specs for the extra 100w headroom.

So I am infact in agreement with darkbreeze on one point but then again Im not ;-)
