As the title says, my previous Corsair GS600W suddenly stopped working. So I need advises on what to buy next. My Budget is limited to 7-7.5k.
So far I have shortlisted my search to these two:

-Thermaltake Smart SE 730W
-Corsair VS650W

Which is the better among the two? Also other suggestions are also welcome. Its a plus point if the PSU is modular

Well I am currently using the ThermalTake PSU's 530w model it quiet and seems good but the suggested Xigmatek Tauro is the best u can get only problem with the ThermalTake one is the lack of Over Temperature Protection but if I had to choose I'd put my money on the Xigmatek one

well first of all,
why you going for more wattage?? are u going to setup an sli or crossfire setup,

IF NO

then there is no point in spending for more wattage, just get any 600watts with better reliability and spex and u r good to go,

better options
1. Xigmatic 600watts(better having 2 year warranty.
2. FSP 600watts(very good i myself using it for like a year)
2. thermaltake 600(equally good and efficient)
3. CM silent pro 600(much expensive not justifying price to performance)

Xigmatek or Corsair HX Series is also on the top.
soo its better u stay in the 500 to 600 Wattage...area..
but if u are planning for sli or crossfire..
then there is something to thing about....
otherwise not an issue..!!

I understand Xigmatek Tauro is the best, infact it was my first choice but due to the time it will take in shipping and all that, I dropped it. Anyways, as you guys suggest I'm opting for Thermaltake Smart SE 630W due to it being modular. I also read a review on it, which rated it pretty high. Thanks for your suggestion guys!

Mate Cooler Master GX series never stops working. it's pretty good if and i would recommend you to buy that.

Cooler Master GX 550W is around 7000-7500rs
Cooler Master GX 650W is around 8000-8500rs
It's worth the money :)

actually the GX series IMO is overpriced they don't offer anything to justify that price keeping in mind their competitors have equally good models at a lower price

that might be true but i have used the one the owner of this thread stated. It failed in 3-4 months at most :|.
Since then i started using 80+ bronze PSUs. GX is the one i chose and it has been working perfectly ^.^
Just my advice. It's awesome.

I didnt find any credible review for the thermaltake one, but the ones on their site are fine.
Just the dip in the 12v rail to 11.4 disturbs me.

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
