Get Seasonic M12II 620w + CyberPower 1Kva UPS buddy.
Get a hold on your cable management and less cluttering wires means cool and clean cabinet which decreases the dust accumulation. Add two 120mm case fans in the front + 1 more in the rear of the cabinet. Thats enough.

Clean your cabinet once in 3-4 months. OK.

It's just okay. It won't blow up or fry the GTX 1080.

It certainly wasn't the best the OP could buy.

1.5kva is must. Being a past user, APC ups got bad reliability nowadays. Just my 2 cents. Won't go in detail what happenned. Check Certified user Reviews on flipkart / amazon before purchasing it.

Pairing up a 60k 1080 with that PSU for saving 2-3k isn't good. VS series is not known for their reliability.

The reality is, with a GTX 1080 and a i7-6700, the OP is looking at a system that would only consume ~300 w on load. [Source: i7-6700K @ 4.7 Ghz + GTX 1080 = 308 W. HARDOCP - Power and Temp - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Founders Edition Revie ]

Sure VS series is a below average product from Corsair and no one would/should suggest it to buy it, but the OP already has it, and also a GTX 1080.

As long as the OP doesn't overclock his GTX 1080, he is going to be fine. That's the truth. It's not a ticking time bomb yet.

Cooler Master has even crappier PSUs. Atleast the RM series from Corsair and S12II, M12II from seasonic are worth getting in that budget.

Unfortunately any of the 550 and 650W versions of the better PSUs aren't available or are hard to find in the Indian market. Seasonic S12II is based on a older group regulated circuit design, there are better PSUs available now. It will soon be discontinued.

I agree with your sentiment, but still it's best if the bad Cooler Master models are explicitly named. eg, the infamous Extreme Power Plus, Cooler Master Elite. It's India and we are almost always likely to buy the bad ones.

My cousin has the now discontinued Cooler Master GX450, which was decent power supply for the price back then.

Cooler Master GX 450 W Power Supply Review - Page 9 of 10 - Hardware Secret However, GX550 and GX650 were bad.

Cooler Master V series is also decent from what I have read. Just not the best.

There is a reason why Seasonic is expensive. It's the best you can buy.

Cooler Master G series is bad and outdated. Avoid.

However, Cooler Master G550M is a decent power supply for the price. But I doubt your retailer would have this.

Honestly, get Seasonic since you already sold your Corsair VS550.
