Cosair vx450 and vx550...any efficiency differences?
Posted: Tue Mar 25, 2008 12:04 pm
It seems the price of the 550 is about $6 more than the price of the 450. Should I quibble about any efficiency difference between the two? I thought I may as well get the 550, as it would probably be a lot easier to re-sell if need be.
My system will most likely run an E2200 CPU, an HD3450 video card, and 2 hard drives, so I realize 450 is even overkill. But, silence is key above all else, and Corsair gets rave reviews.
Might there be any efficiency differences in energy consumed with such low power requirements between the 550W and 450W versions?
