Corsair vs Antec

[Ozzy24]

Hey Guys

So I've blown through my second motherboard in the last few months and I'm pretty sure it's my PSU that has been the culprit (last time it died was while I was playing Bioshock Infinite). I'm pretty sure my current PSU (Astrum GPower 500) is not deliverying enough power to my GPU at times (due to having 2 rails) and this is straining the mobo and causing it to short circuit(I split my GPU between my PC and a full HD LED) , so as soon as I get my PC back with a new Z68 Mobo, I wana rip out that parasitic Astrum and put in a brand name single rail PSU. Unfortunately the XFX Pro series (which would have been my first choice) is all sold out in my country, so my 2 choices are either a Corsair CX500 or an Antec Neo Eco 520W. Which would be the most reliable and better PSU for my PC?
This is my current build (it is not overclocked and I do not intend to overclock on it, just use it for music production and a lot of gaming):

i7 2600k CPU
Gigabyte Z68-DS3 rev 2.1 mobo
8 gig (2x4) DDR3 RAM (both 1.5v)
1 TB Seagate HDD
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 550 Ti 1GB (the version with 2 fans cooling it)

The Antec Neo Eco is by Seasonic, the same maker that makes that XFX you like. The corsair CX line has some cheap capacitors, good for basic systems, but not ideal for high end gaming machines.

^+1. Although the Antec HCG 520M is a little better AND modular around the same price mostly.
