[SOLVED] PSU compatibility & comparison ?

[VERSION_1583]

Hi,

I was wondering if either of these PSU (link below) will be compatible with my Intel DQ67SW Motherboard.

As well as guidance on which PSU is better:

SeaSonic:

Corsair:

Thank You!

Seasonic VS Corsair.. tough choices. I think they both good, sit on fence about which is best. I have a Seasonic myself.

The Seasonic is only semi modular

Some cables are permanently attached to the power supply (most of the time the 24-pin and the 8-pin ATX power cables) and the rest of the cables can be used to connect the rest of the available components.

But they mostly the ones you use all the time anyway.
The RM550x is fully modular. Doesn't make a great difference.

both would support your motherboard, it doesn't seem to have anything unusual on it.

Thank you so much
Since there is no real difference, I have decided to buy the Corsair since there was a discount code that significantly lowered its price.

Corsair RM550x is way better than a Seasonic Core. Better in ... anything.
Better platform
Better fan
Better fancontrol
Better cables
Better connectors
Better performance
and so on.

I see. I'm glad I chose Corsair RM550x then.
