Abstract: As a bit more shopping advice this weekend for Linux users besides my low-cost mini-ITX Linux system build are a few words about the power supplies I've been buying recently for the new test farm. I'm up to about six of the Corsair CX430 low-cost power su...

soldering could use improvement,
Corsair has managed to pull off rather successfully something not too many companies can brag about. They've come up with a reliable, cheap, and well performing power supply for everyday systems that don't expect a lot from their power supplies. I do f...

The Corsair CX430 V2 proved to be an outstanding product, possibly the power supply with the best cost/benefit ratio we’ve ever seen. Costing only USD 45 (USD 35 after sending a mail-in rebate card), it provides efficiency between 81.2% and 85.4%, whic...
The Corsair CX430 surprised us a lot. Because it doesn’t have even the standard 80 Plus certification, the manufacturer says it has efficiency “up to” 80%, and Corsair was apprehensive in sending us a reviewing sample (we had to buy this unit ourselves...

Abstract: When you're assembling a basic system with or without an entry-level card you don't need more than 300-450 watts to power it. These PCs also benefit from a good and stable PSU, but there's a lot of junk available in this lower segment. We thought that w...
With the CX430 Corsair presents quite an interesting power supply in this price range Of course for an MSRP of only 5999 USDollar one does not have to expect a perfect product but still it could be a good compromise, and that's exactly what the CX430 is C...
great looking power supply, stellar technical performance, quiet, efficiency is pretty good, cheap as chips,

The Corsair CX430 V2 looks like an rather forgettable, low priced product on paper, but in reality it is a hell of a bargain. The shipping materials may be very plain, but the appearance of the unit itself is surprisingly attractive, with subtle green let...
