[SOLVED] Corsair or Seasonic

Solution
Corsair TXM are Semi Modular with fixed 24 and 8 pin connectors. It has a 7 year warranty.
The Focus GX is Fully modular with a 10 year warranty.

Realistically, most people wont have a PSU for more 7 years anyhow, so the warranty difference isnt that big of a deal, but it is a benefit. You willl have to use a 24 and 8 pin for every PC, so semi modular isnt that much of a downgrade, but it is an advantage of the seasonic.

In terms of performance both are rather good, so i wouldn't worry about that.
Both have 100% power rated at 40c, although the Focus GX says at 50c it can still output 80%, which i dont know about with the TXM.

Correction, the TXM has a higher temp rating and can deliver 100% power at 50c where as the GX is only 80% at 50c according to their website. Not a big deal either.

Having dealt with support for both a SeaSonic PSU and a Corsair PSU, both companies have good customer service.

Id go with the cheaper one.
