Getting 80+ gold is pretty good enough. Most 80+ gold PSU now offer full modular design for easier cable management cool2.gif .
Corsair AX 750W 80+gold RM579
Seasonic X-760W RM629

Both PSU are silent too smile.gif .

Don't be fooled by the "550" in the name ya, it's not a 550W power supply. It's a entry-level 240W power supply. It depends on the rig you're trying to power up. Is it a gaming rig? If so then the FSP Hexa 500W immediately springs to mind. Only around RM150 icon_rolleyes.gif

Spec :

Intel i5-3470
Asus P8B75-MLX
Corsair Vengeance 4GB x2 Blue
Sapphire HD7770 Vapor X GHZ Edition
WD Blue 500GB

My town don't sell FSP Hexa 500W yawn.gif

Or should i get a Xigmatek Tauro 500W? 80+ Bronze.

Since VS550 is RM190 and Xigmatek Tauro 500W is RM200 thumbup.gif

It should be 240V. This model is entry level indeed.
