Looking for the most affordable power supply for a new gaming rig build, is this any good? I usually buy corsair things.

This corsair CPU is a rebranded CWT PSU. CWT makes decent PSUs. It's good enough.

Corsair just loves to overprice their rebrands though.

It's a rebranded CWT PSU. They make decent PSUs, it's not a Super Flower, it's not a FSP nor Enchance Eletronics, but it's decent enough, you could do worse.

This.
Bought CS650 almost 2 years ago, replaced it twice before handing it back altogether.

It is good. That might be a bit of a low wattage for a gaming PC, not much breathing room for upgrades or anything and it won't handle SLI between power-hungry cards. But it's definitely great for the price.

PSU's are the one thing you should really try to pay a little more for, because a bad one can turn a $40 purchase into a $500 one if it decides to take all your hardware with it. Consider a Seasonic, or a rebranded Seasonic, since they're consistent as fuck when it comes to quality

What GPU could you power with 430 watts?
>>
Is it true that futureproofing a PSU and getting more watts than you need will actually make it worse? I only need 400+ watts ATM, however I want to get a 600w so I can upgrade int he future. Which should it be?
BTW going for EVGA
