Best PSU under $80?

[robobeast]

I want the best or good PSU under $80. I had many picks I thought were good but then I read someone say they suck. Everyone someone said they suck. My top choice right now is the Corsair CXM series 550 watt. Does it have Japanese caps? I really am new to this stuff please help me make a good choice.

This one is a good unit, you can get the 620W and still be in your price range. Better than the Corsair I believe.

if you could gtet another 10 dollars you can get this and it is in a different class than the seasonic or the corsair. longer warranty than both.
Jonnyguru gives it a 10

if 80 is a hard limit the Seasonic M12II would be my call for second
corsair cx550m for third

Xeon e3-1225v5
8gb ram idk speed or other stuff about the ram
1tb hdd
1060 3gb (gonna buy with psu)
Idk my motherboard came with the t30 server
Do I have to post answer to make a comment or is there another way?

I think those are good but is the $85 one worth that much... Is it my best bet?

EVGA G2/G3 is the best on that price. Also good is Seasonic S12II/M12II.

Would any of these work (of course I need the right Mobo Slot) well with my specs?

this server?
this server has a proprietary power connector and will require an adapter for the new power supply. The case is standard and a standard ATX PSU will fit inside.

Yes....I am not sure what you mean I am not very intelligent in the PC field pls explain further... Will a new PSU not fit or connect right? Is it easy to get an adapter??

the power supply will fit inside the case, but the power supply CAN NOT connect to the computer without a power port adapter.

Standard ATX, like all the PSU units we have been discussing all have a 24 pin power cable for the motherboard, and likewise standard ATX motherboards have a 20 or 24pin port that will accept the plug.
the motherboard in your server is not standard. the 24 pin plug all these power supplies will not fit into the power port on the motherboard.

not an endorsement example only shop around.You can see the second picture is the power plug in your pc, the third is a standard ATX.

the red circle is the small power cable
the green is where you can see the pins where a standard 24pin would be

Ok thank you for clarifying sorry for my not understanding. Will these adapters ruin performance or cause problems?

they shouldn't. the motherboard is simply not using some of the cords, it does not need them and it was cheaper for dell to omit them.

from what I can tell the motherboard is not using any 12V or 3.3V power, those are the omitted lines.
the video card will need the 12V power, and the CPU is getting power from the AUX power 4 pin.
