Which PSU is better of those two?

Chieftec costs less but i don't see it has 85% efficiency like corsair has. (There is no vs500 500watt model on that site, don't tell me to take it)

amd phenom II x4 940
ram 4gb ddr2
radeon hd 4730 (planned on gtx750 or 960)
biostar ta790gxbe
Thanks!

Never heard of Chieftec and Corsair is a much more trustworthy brand. The Corsair VS series is a decent power supply but if possible I'd go for a unit from XFX, Antec, Seasonic. So in short, go with the Corsair VS.

Yes that would do the job just fine, however I'd try looking for a 500-550W unit for some headroom if you are upgrading to a GTX 750/960.

The CX series falls into the same categorie as the VS series. Here's a tier list for reference:

Try to look for around 500-550W even though you upgrade choices don't consume much power and would probably work on the 450W XFX PSU you listed.

Dude this one is 500w

It's a 500W but still from the CX series which is a lower-end unit. You can still use it and it will run your system fine, but I'm just suggesting going for a higher quality unit here. The CX500 will run your rig just fine. I can also imagine that the 960 will consume even less power than the 145W of the GTX 970.

Chieftec has some higher end supplies that are real good quality , but this one is not one of them , the Corsair is better.

You just answered your own question, i don't need a power supply that costs more than my cpu and ram. I'm on a tight budget. CX500 is ideal.
