Which PSU should I get?

[Scott Connor]

This is what some of my rig consists of:
AMD FX-6100
MSI 650 ti Boost OC Twin Frozr
Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3
Corsair Vengeance DDR3 (2x4GB)

I also have two disc drives, one is a blu ray and the second is DVD as well as having two HDD, one is 350GB and the second is 1TB

I want to get either a Corsair GS700 or a Corsair TX650M which one should i get?

i would get the Corsair TX650M

i would get the Corsair TX650M

How come you would go for the TX650M?

the 650m is modular and it looks more reliable. The Gs700 isnt modular. The 650m has over 10x more reviews so if i was you i would feel safer buying the 650m but its up to you.

okay thanks for the answer it seems like the 650m would be the better bet Y

i assume you are talking about the GX 700 v2? the two PSU use very similar platforms, almost identical (the GS uses some Taiwanese secondary caps). I would choose the TX650M, i believe its all japanese caps so you have a slightly better internal components and a longer warranty by two years. the GS is a good PSU, the TX-M slightly better.

Yeah the GS 700 V2 2013 edition? well the longer warranty and better quality makes the TX650M the better option Y

assuming equal price, then yes its the better option. I've built with both the corsair GS and TX-M PSU and never had issues with either line.

Okay well the GS700 is $119 and the TX650M is $129 this is australian dollars btw?
