[SOLVED] Corsair RM

[KawaTom]

Is ther any diffrence between RM850 and RM850x. Its 40$ but if its a diffrence that i wont be noticing i will got for the cheapest RM not the RM x

RMx has better capacitors and longer warranty, i believe.
850W is a bit overkill for your build.

Its a new. i9 9900k with 3070 and for a RM850 the diffrence in price is minimal over a 750w

Well that makes a bit more sense.
I would go pay a bit more for the RMx 850, and roll with it.

RM is cheaper because it doesn't use Japanese branded capacitors, they're expensive, otherwise the quality and performance is comparable to RM-x. No, just because it doesn't use Japanese capacitors that doesn't mean that it's a bomb or will fail in a couple of years, Corsair still provides 10 years warranty for it just like for RM-x and their chief engineer, Jon Gerow is quite confident in their capacitors choice. One thing tho, because RM needs to meet high efficiency targets on low load (<2%) it uses a burst mode on PWM controller which might increase coil whine at idle.

$40 more? It's not worth it. Go with the RM.

Which might increase coil whine at idle.

I've never heard Coil whine... But I have heard of a small "clicking" noise at idle. I think that's what you meant.
