Antec VP550F is discontinued PSU. Specs: http://www.antec.com/product.php?id=706523&lan=ec
While Antec VP550P V2 is ongoing product. Specs: http://www.antec.com/product.php?id=704441&fid=5022044&lan=ec

I'd say VP550P V2 offers better quality over it's predecessor VP550F.

Do note that Antec VP series is a Tier three PSU.
PSU Tier list: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html

I suggest that you go with Tier two PSU instead, preferably Tier one if you could afford it.

Anything from Seasonic is great.

For you, in Tier two, i suggest getting either a S12II-520, M12II-520 EVO, S12G-550 or G-550.

Would need direct links to the 2 Psu's you're looking at to ascertain which they are.

In order of quality

1.vpf550 2015
2. Vp550p v2
3. Vpf550 v1 (2011 model)
