I know you recommended the cosair 650 watt to me but i found a raidmax 630 watt(http://www.frys.com/...CH:MAIN_RSLT_PG) its going to end up being 50 dollars cheaper how do you feel about this one in comparison to the cosair
please and thanks you for your help

Seems to have good reviews.

which would you go with

I myself would spend the extra and get the corsair because it is proven to be stable.
The Raidmax PSU's are rated as a Tier 6 PSU which means most of us in the Tech field do not recommend them as they are not stable or dependable.
