Default Which PSU of these should i get:
My bro just needs 500W since he plans to do no gamming, so which of these is the best? (they are all similar in price)

Corsair VX550W

Enermax PRO82+

Enermax Liberty 500W

Enermax Tomahawk 500W

or are they all similar and it wont really matter since he plans to do no gamming and programming. The enermax's def look nicer!
