If you're buying from Corsair, as of now stick to TX and HX series. Don't foolishly be blinded by brand's name, irrespective of the tier level.

Around 4k to 8k

You can check out Antec HCG (High Current Gamer ) series, very good build quality and a great choice for a long lasting rig. The 750W one is for about 8K but you do have other options starting from about 4.3K (or maybe a bit lesser) for a 400W in the same series. their failure rate is known to be the lowest worldwide.

And you are? Antec PR or something?

SEASONIC S12-II 620W ....FTW!
But I suggest you get a modular one from Seasonic/Corsair if you got the cash :)

i can say this about their extreme series
too much ripple, unbalanced voltage, inefficient, Bogus rating(like cheapo PSUs found around Rs.400 rated as 400W), faliure rate ...

Seasonic India website does not exist as of now. Seasonic is distributed by Tirupati Enterprises and they are based in Kolkata. Seasonic makes PSU's for Corsair(HX,AX Series). Corsair sells at a higher price but Seasonic sells at reasonable prices only and that too with 5 year warranty. If you have more doubts PM me. OK.

Right now Seasonic has released a new range of PSU called Seasonic X650 @7456 (with Hybrid switch). Seasonic X750 & X850 is also available for lesser price than corsair with 5 to 7 year warranty respectively.
