1. corsair vs 650 exploded while playing watch dogs on 2014 ( after 4-5 months )

i don't know about cx series

2. Currently using antec giving me random shuts down without warning
it even sometimes take more than 10 minutes to power up pc ( mysterious things )

Apples vs Oranges there. The older VS650 was a very budget, relatively poor quality offering based on one of CWT's cheapest platforms. The modern CX450 is a quality yet affordable offering from Great Wall. The CX450-M is still CWT, but a better quality unit than the older VS650 used in the example.

Any of the CX or CX-M units from Corsair (2015 and 2017 models) are quality - although the CX's are a bit better than the CX-M's.
