Pojavila se u prodaji nova serija Corsair napajanja, zovu je "builders series" i sastoji se od tri modela: CX430, CX500 i CX600 - što označava i snagu u watima. Cijene - prihvatljive, CX430 je još jeftiniji od ionako povoljnog CX400 kojeg više neće biti, a što se kvalitete tiče.... recimo da bi brand trebao nešto značiti.
Napajanja su tek najavljena prije petnaestak dana:

pa nekih ozbiljnih review-a nema, tek utisci korisnika na newegg-u:

Napajanja izgleda nisu loša, ali nisu niti poput starog CX400. Najvažnije je da je Corsair smanjio jamstvo na 2 godine i da mu CX napajanja ne proizvodi više Seasonic već CWT. Za one kojima se ne da sve čitati, izdvajam mišljneje jednog korisnika sa newegg-a:
"Pros:
Its better than the $20 units...
Cons:
-SLEEVE BEARING FAN = SHORT LIFESPAN. Specs say its double ball-bearing, its not. Fan is model# D12SH-12 which is sleeve bearing, not ball - google it.
-Only 2-year warranty, compared to 3-year on previous CX400 model(I wonder why...?)
-CX400 was made by SeaSonic, CX430 now made by CWT. Cost Optimization...
-CX400 had 30amp 12v rail, CX430 has 28amp 12v rail. More 12v power is what you want with today's PCs.
Other Thoughts:
Overall, Corsair took a rock-solid PSU(CX400) and replaced it with a cheapo that will probably blow up in 2.5 years once the sleeve-bearing fan dies. Looks like I'll have to find another brand to use in my lower-end builds. A ball-bearing fan is one of the most important requirements of any PSU. It doesn't matter if its the best-built PSU in the world, if the fan dies, its game over pretty quick."
