Corsair manufactures PSU? I thought their PSUs were CWTs and Seasonics

Technically it's the manufacturer, the company you're buying the product from, though its component and unit sources are SeaSonic and CWT. Sort of like every reference design Radeon HD 4870 X2 is made by PCPartner, or that every reference design Radeon card that Diamond Multimedia and GeCube sells is made by InfoTek Corp. You're buying from them, not ITC or PCP.

Technically manufacturer is someone who uses tools and labor to transform raw materials into finished goods on a large scale. I think that a PSU made from CWT or Seasonics shall be considered as "raw material" and final product is Corsair branded PSU. Corsair is real good at branding this year according to Custom PC Magazine.

I personally think raidmaxxx is the best, but I cant be for sure being that ive never owned anything corsair has developed.

crossair made very good psu's but still expensive

I actually find their pricing not too bad, compared to other quality psus.

My HX620 is looking to be a good investment. :rockout:

I love my Corsair 750TX. I liked my Antec before it but I think this one is even a little quieter. I like the color scheme (even though you don't see it) and the cord management that came with it (pretty standard I know but still nice).
BUT I think what put them over the top was those cool felt bags they came in!
ROFL

While true I think Corsair has some say in how the PCB is laid out and what goes on it. I believe that is how it works. This is what makes theirs different from Seasonics own branded PSUs.

EDIT
Oh, I'm sure Corsairs customer support may have had something to do with this : ) I've only had to use it once but it was easy and helpful!
