[SOLVED] Difference between these 3 Corsair PSUs?

[landyvlad]

I'm in Australia but the only difference in model numbers is that the US version has-NA rather than -AU (110V vs 240V)

Trying to figure out the difference between these three 850W Corsair PSUs and which is the best quality one (the price difference is negligible)

Corsair 850W RM850 80+ Gold Modular Power Supply (CP-9020196-AU) $174,50

Corsair RM850e 850W 80+ Gold Fully Modular Power Supply $189

Overall they are technically the same (RM850 serie).

The main difference is that the number of PCI-E and SATA connectors and types of cables differ on each model.

The RMx model is described as having Japanese capacitors instead of Chinese capacitors and magnetic bearing fan.

For extra $10 maybe you should get the RMx model (if your case is large enough because the cables that come with the RMx model are stiffer thus not recommended for small case).

RMe is totally different from RM and RMx. RM and RMx use the same CWT platform altough RMx has better caps, incable caps and a better fan. RMe has a HEC platform with lower quality caps and even a cheaper fan then RM.
