I think, that there should be at least 3 categories:
1."BOMB with unknown explosion time"
- do not buy it even for integrated with mobo graphic cards, PCs 4 writing posts on overclockers.com
2."Good, but not expensive PSUs" - Cheap PSUs that can handle computers with single GPU (not very high Watagges). Keeping good voltages, have good components, are quiet and are letting you using your PC for many years without worrying about fireworks display
after little voltage "jumps" in mains(mains - did I good translated it
)
3. Just as somebody said - "The Very Best of the Best." - for ultimate tasks - PC with multi GPU, overclocked - for high-end performance - price is not the main thing.
I think, that necessary is to separate PSUs from the first and second group. Not everyone need a "power station", but somebody need cheap, quiet PSU for "multimedia" PC.
That is My little conclusion about this
. Anyway My PSU arrived yesterday and I've replaced it already...
It's working for a couple of hours, but I've didn't run any game or benchmark yet.
Here are some photos:

Comparing the amount of cables to the LOGIC 500W:

For example this PSU i would put into the second group, but XFX Pros with more power can go to the 3rd group i suppose.
Here are some tests of XFX Pro 550.
