Board (X9SCL-F), Chip (E3-1240 v2), and Ram (16gb) arrived today for my new build. I have the drives (3x 6TB Ironwolf Nas, 2x 1TB WD Green) already so it's time to turn my attention to the PSU. Was looking at a Seasonic but then I saw a well priced EVGA, the 650w GQ 210-GQ-0650-V1 80+ GOLD Modular, eco-mode. 650 of course is overkill, but <$60 new+delivered it's tempting. Checking the recommended hardware list I read:
"EVGA is a newly-popular high-end option, with several excellent rebadged Seasonic and Super Flower units. Care must be taken to choose a model by one of these OEMs, as the lower-end units are adequate, at best, for a desktop environment."
How can I tell which EVGA supplies are the rebadged being mentioned and which are the ones 'adequate, at best'?
