Unhappy PSU Selection. Help!!! Its URGENT..


I am looking for a good PSU for around 2.5k. The dealer here has only FSP SAGAII 500W and CX-430. Both are for 2.6k.
I know CX-400 would have been a better choice here but the dealer says he can't get it. So, which one should i opt for. Plz reply ASAP coz i have to give him the final selection 2moro.

Plz help...

ajai5777,
dont worry. My rig is gonna be updated with SB within a week. I hope then u can judge whether FSP can handle it.

Sam,
if it would have been a COD system i could have opted. But my father wont allow for online transaction. So, its better to get FSP for 0.3k rather going for generic ones available here.

BTW,
Zeb. 600W Plat. -- 2.6k
IBall 600W Plat -- 2.9k
CM 650W -- 4k
Also i cant afford these.

Still any other views....

And what about cabby then??
No GAMMA. Only one shop has CM, and i think they will definitrly charge higher.
So, should i go with Zeb. Any good models..

Get the suggested corsair or FSP PSUs anyhow, never go for those "faltu" zebronics or iball or what ever crap the shopkeeper supplies. Yeh computer ki life ka swaal hai!

I know it dude. But came to know Corsair cx430 is not good as cx400. So, i will better go with FSP SAGA at 2.6k.

Also suggest some cabs. Bijli here costs 2.3k. So, you can think what would the cost of CM Elite 430 would be here.
So, i am thinking to get a good looking generic cabby for 0.8k instead of getiing Bijli for 2.3k. If better models would be abvailable later, i can go for a good one.

primeabgb is currently giving free shiping for limited period, try getting a proper cabby online from there. Good time to exploit the offer. Otherwise shipping cost for cabby goes over Rs.500

diwali cracks are cheaper than these & gives out louder bang.

STATUTORY WARNING: playing with electronic cracks & that also inside your PC is bad for your PC's health.

well you can go for Corsair CX430 too. It isn't bad, the thing is CX400 was too good. Many people thought CX430 was crap, but JonnyGuru rated it quite well saying it gives you what it is labelled for. Sam has mentioned about short cables in FSP Saga II PSUs.

Is Seasonic available in your area?

No Seasonic, No Tagan, No Antec. Not a single branded PSU available here. Only CM, Zeb., IBall and other generic ones. One dealer has agreed to get corsair and fsp for me. But the options for me are cx430 and sagaii 500w. So, which one to go for. Both will cost 2.6k.
Also whats the warranty of sagaii 500w.

I think i wont be going for bottom mount PSUs. So, which one will be better PSU.

ICO,
as u said cx430 will give 430w and sagaii will give 500w. So, will sagaii 500w not be a good choice???
Plz be fast. I have to order the psu 2day.
