Corsair VS and CS power supplies

[Utilize]

So I've heard that these two series are really bad because they have low quality capacitors. Is this true? Can someone clarify?

Thanks.

CX units included as well.
The units themselves are quality enough, but if the caps fail the unit fails. They tend to fail quite often as well.
My CX500 lasted about 7 months.

AX > HX > RM > CS > CX > VS in terms of quality. The biggest gap is between HX and RM.

Choose any of those and you'll be golden.

XFX and EVGA (B2, G2) are great options.
