Basically it's all down to consumer choice, I'm just voicing out my opinion. Comparing Seasonic X-Series & Corsair AX series side by side, some do not willing to fork out the extra RM20-RM40 for the extra warranty period, so they still choose Seasonic over Corsair

And from my experience, just one thing playing in my mind. Those 5-7 years warranty are based/provided by manufacturer. So distributor reliability need to take into account. Best example is when previous distributor stop/cut-off their distribution-ship for Seasonic, warranty issue arise. We don't know how long this company will stay or last, if they "lingkup" within the warranty period, then reseller/end-user will absorb the consequences. Previously my case, RMA two units of Seasonic X-650 seems take forever, until now haven't settle yet for 1 unit  doh.gif

For current distributor for Seasonic, IMO they should continue the warranty period based on the 5 years warranty. To cut-off 2 years from the period is kinda hard to accept since they are the one which take over Msia market  smile.gif I've been inform they will continue the warranty but not being inform about the 2 years cut-off period. Nevertheless, will get confirmation from them again

And from the info, current distributor is 1Care Marketing (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd
Their Website: www.1care-online.com
Info Taken On Seasonic Official Website: http://www.seasonic.com/buy/buy_asia.htm

Honestly this is the first time I notice this distributor  laugh.gif

Unlike Corsair carry in by Cudo Technologies (M) Sdn. Bhd which got track in our Msia PC hardware industry  smile.gif

So the "distributor reliability" is being emphasize again  icon_idea.gif

Nope I'm not saying 1Care is not reliable nor demoting Seasonic, I'm just referring to previous case of Seasonic RMA/Warranty issue smile.gif

Reputation/Reliability is build by time and you need to show your effort to your customer when doing business ect by providing good service / proven good track record in your business line

But their 1st effort of cutting the warranty by 2 years for the X-Series is already not a good move

If my comment offended any party here, I would like to sincerely apologize and edit my comment if required/requested notworthy.gif

lolwut, took over by some shitty distributor? now I realized that there is more and more novice distributor coming up and carrying big brands doh.gif first time hearing that company too.

you should know the current distributor of SS right? a disaster in the making. They don't even really know much about their products that they are carrying, and then making conclusion by not even testing out the products, just making claims based on paper specs fyi, they do have alot of lyn acc's here, spying around

they created a tsunami in the SS tered tongue.gif

consumer wants reasonable market price PSU instead of hike-up-because-of-high-demand. Initially i wanna get a Seasonic PSU back few months ago, the X-series cost only RM3xx-4xx, but sellers here keep delaying weeks after weeks, got fed up and get myself a new netbook instead. Now I shall wait and see for few months how this new SS distributor perform before I decided to revive my desktop back.

This is what I'm trying to point out. Corsair may come out bit pricy but the current distributor has been in-charge for many many years, unlike other brand which only took 2-3 years, then drop it here and there smile.gif After drop, warranty also "lepas tangan" also = short-cut thumbup.gif

Same apply to SS, not to say I want to flame the disaster they are currently experiencing. I've been approached as a reseller not long time ago but their term really gg.com. In the end, I decided to terminate my SS sale due to many unforeseen factors smile.gif I still remember few years back, the first to post official/local distributed SS product in LYN is by me smile.gif The brand/products is good, but it also depend on the distributor/reseller/dealer to sell and make their mark in our market for long term basis

Novice distributor or expert, mostly they come from same big boss and investor. After their company image has been tarnish, they will either register as a new company name and terminate the "spoiled" one. I think it's not in my position to reveal those company but some reseller may recall if you have been in this field for more than 3-4 years smile.gif

Reasons the delay previously is due to the distributor already got issue with the manufacturer (Seasonic)

Waiting the "head to be chopped" and they are looking for new distributor

That's why the shortage for Seasonic PSU in our market here and there doh.gif

they didn't chop warranty, 'cause it is always 1 year. They did jack up the price at the very beginning, but now it is back to normal.

but I don't really like their lacksidal attitude in doing things. They don't even know clearly the brands they are selling. Some forumer complained about mic issues, then their staff call him bias since he is part of their rival compy. It is a well known fact that memang got mic issues..and then today they suddenly back down, looks like they finally tested it tongue.gif

there are other good distros too, like Answers, Ban Leong, Cudo etc.

Just a question, there are forumners saying Cex is the distributor for Seasonic too. So is 1Care and Cex both having the distribution rights now?

CEX is just a reseller/dealer

Distributor is 1Care = They (1Care) sell stock to CEX = Then CEX sell Seasonic to you (end-user) smile.gif

Was the buzzing sound very loud or was it noticeable only if you placed your ear next to the power supply?
