Mxhawthy :
You are right about repeating the same statements.
I am the first to admit that I have learnt 99.9% of what I know, from this site. But this site is one of the biggest, (if the not the biggest) tech sites in the world. There are lots of experts here that have 20+ years of experience, so when articles like this (http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html) are written on a website like this, it is trustworthy information. (If it wasn't it would be corrected by said experts)
I trust the information given to me, by people who have more experience and more knowledge than me, because how else do people learn?
You were just the last one to comment about it, and I qouted you. Nothing personal about it, it´s a forum, people voice their oppinions and I enjoy a good argument with a solid foundation.
Perhaps you misunderstood?
I am seeing alot of baseless hatred against the CX series from Corsair. I want to clarify that:
Corsair states VS,CX and VS line is meant for 30 degrees C.
That obviously means no to overclocking, highend gaming rigs or work stations under heavy load. The post by
dottorent, describes his tier 4 PSU as "Not for gaming rigs or overclocking systems of any kind. ". Which is true for the CX series. While reports state they will hold at 50 degrees C, it´s recommended at 30.
I believe that alot of people are unaware of this, and they just pick a PSU out of it´s watts and price. Then got angry, when their PSU started to fail, due to overheating. CX PSU, at their price point, and for what they were designed for are good enough. I don´t think they are the best PSUs, but price and design in mind, they do their job fine.
Often, it´s "corsair cx has bad capacitors or cheap chinese caps". All Corsairs caps are japanese primary caps, and the higher end has eletrolytic caps. And while Japan has a reputation of higher quality control (which is strongly believe), doesn´t mean all chinese caps are poor quality. In fact alot of the japanese branded caps gets assembled and or produced in china anyways. Apple, Dell and HP had a major problem with poor caps in some of their products - japanese-made.
