Thanks got my 450 ordered. 600 seems overkill for an itx unless you plan to go with the dual GPU in a single card setup..
Amazon.com: Corsair SF600 High Performance SFX Power Supply SFX12V 600 Power Supply CP-9020105-NA: Computers & Accessories
Showed up on Amazon but no stock yet
I'm guessing you didn't read the posts above yours.
I owned one of the Original corsair PSU's, the HX620. It came out shortly before the release of the 8 pin pci-e power standard. Instead of releasing a new model or psu revision, they offered a free upgraded cable to anyone who asked for them. All I had to do was send an email with my address, and they shipped one, no questions or proof of purchase required.Just ordered the SF600. I'm not sure if jonnyguru oversaw the development of it but at least it's a good sign one of the reasons for the delay was for Japanese caps. I'll take my chances on it being a quality PSU.
Does anyone know if Corsair is known to commonly make revisions? I don't like it when I buy a product and soon after they make fixes, but you're stuck with the flaws
Swedish retailer Inet.se has them listed and one of the specs. reveal that they (both 600 and 450) run fanless to 20% load. (120 and 90w resp.)
I didn't find it, too. It just shows up on Geizhals but without any price tag or shop to head over to.Anybody find the Corsair SF450 for Germany online yet? Not showed up in any of the stores I have checked...
On one hand I do like the fact that the SF600 will have Japanese caps and will run quietly as I will be getting the DAN A4, which will mean little to modest at best overclocks (4.0 GHz i7 4770K, maybe a non-voltage gpu oc?). At the same time, the efficiency will not be that great at non-gaming, browsing use loads. It would have been nice if Corsair just came out with a 500w or 550w psu.
I am a bit conflicted on psu choice.

I do understand Corsair's decision to make a 600w to cover the hardcore PC enthusiast that heavily Overlcocks their gpu and cpu.
Since the Dan A4 does not come out for a while, I might just wait for a new 500-550w SFX psu from Corsair and Silverstone. Maybe eVGA may join in on the SFX psu market as their high-end psu offerings have been really solid as of late.

For what it's worth, I live chatted with an Amazon rep and they said my SF600 should be here on April 5th.
Just from my experience with newly released electronics in general and not specific to Corsair, Newegg seems to be the first, then Amazon, then the rest.Are they usually the first to have it in stock?
For euros:
Swedish corsair rep told me "in the coming weeks" and the retailer I ordered from said "we should have it in stock in 1-2 weeks"

Is there any feedback regarding noise for these PSUs, considering they're already in the wild (inside Bulldog builds)?
Well that depends entirely on the components.Thanks got my 450 ordered. 600 seems overkill for an itx unless you plan to go with the dual GPU in a single card setup..

So is this supposed quiter than the Silverstone SFX-L 500W? Noise is my main concern for purchasing PSUs.

We'll know when it gets reviewed and compared. In theory the Silverstone SX500-LG would have been the most quiet SFX-like PSU when it launched, in the end many had issues with the fan controller causing noises. I have a Sharkoon SFX-L which is based on the same platform as the SX500-LG, but because it doesn't have a semi-fanless fan controller, it doesn't exhibit the noises. To me, the PSU is quiet.
Yes. Larger fans can move the same air at lower rpms than smaller fans, being quieter in the process.The SFX-L units have the larger 120mm fan, they should be quieter?
Yes. Smaller fans must spin faster than bigger fans to move the same amount of air, being louder in the process.But the SFX units have the smaller fans, hence noisier?
If Silverstone hadn't botched the fan controller on their SFX-L's, they should have been the quieter than the Corsair or any other SFX-non-L.One of the draws of the Corsair SFX units is the larger 92mm fan, so it is hoped that they will be quieter than the Silverstone units…
That's all he said. His sentiment was that on paper the Corsair looks good, but the Silverstone looked even better. Real world performance was disappointing though.We can only wait until these are out in the wild & some testing pops up
