I have the chance to buy the CoolerMaster for $180. Would that change your equation at all?

Thanks, I am grateful for the advice. I see what you are saying. I will go with your suggestion!
Cheers
Right on the mark.No. I would spend the $40 for the EVGA.
The CoolerMaster has some serious ripple issues. They're within spec, albeit barely.
On the flip side, the EVGA beats out similar Seasonic units at ripple and voltage regulation.
I also couldn't bring myself to pay that much for a semi-modular PSU, but that's personal preference.
Also, if you register the PSU with EVGA, you will have a 10-year warranty.
Update completed. I think I will do a cleanup of older PSUs and link them into another post in this thread.. Link it to that post in the OP. Does that sound good?
I'm looking at PSU in the high 500s-low 600s. Some are discontinued and the EVGA Supernova GS/G2 seems to be having quality problems with lots of DOAs. Any recommendations for under 600W and less than 100$, preferably 80 Plus Gold. Also, like to avoid any with coil whine problems
Actually not lots of DOAs but some in the same timeframe, April-May. Just looking through the reviews on Amazon/Newegg
