i see you recommending that psu over the CX, any reason as it just has more wattage?

CX series is cheap/budget psu that's reliable, but at 60 bux not worth. Only 3 yrs warranty, uses cheap capacitors, and made by CWT.
EVGA same price, 5 yr warranty, uses japanese capacitors, and made by FSP.

I'd only recommend CX series if it's around 30bux, no intention of hardcore OC,on a tightass budget, or if there's no better options
