Hi my PSU (details in siggy RIG 1) has gone kaput. I need help choosing a new PSU which will support me existing rig (RIG 1). I have narrowed down on Corsair CX430 and Antec VP450. Please let me know the best out of 2 or if you have some different suggestions please let me know, but please reply soon as I would be buying it this weekend.
Thanks

Go for Antec VP450P dont forget P.
VP450P has active pfc.

Corsair CX series is also good but got lots of complaint now a days so better avoid CX430V2

or you can look at Seasonic SS400BT model at cheaper rate which can power even a GTX 670 :)
