It's been awhile since we looked at Corsair products last and as we know Corsair got into the PSU market a few years ago and are now doing very well with stable PSU´s and most of all silent units. We got their TX950 PSU today which is the non modular version and we are going to look into stability and noise levels so stay tuned.
