I don't think that problem is at all that common. Not these days anyway. The AX850 is a great power supply. I doubt you will have any problems with it.

I think the manufacturer’s site will have the info you need. I think they are both very good, but that the AX are slightly better than the HX. You will do well with either of them really.

Also, try doing a Google search for reviews of each for even more exact info.

The AX series have better ripple suppression as far as I know.

I had an odd issue with an AX-750. Whenever something else on the same outlet was turned on or off, my sound would stop working and the PC would lock up at the shutdown screen. Being that the outlets are new, the PC is connected to an online UPS, and only 300 watts were used between the PC and other items on the same outlet, it's not an issue on my end. I swapped it out for an old PC Power and Cooling Silencer 750(silencer my a$$) and there are no more issues except for a much louder PC fan. Anyone else experience anything similar with this PS? Being that it's only 8 months old, I'll be filling out a RMA form shortly.

Proud owner here... just replaced the HX850 in my main rig with the AX850.

No performance increase, etc... just wanted to upgrade the PSU in my media PC (by upgrading the PSU in the main rig!)

The evil thing about Corsair is now i'm obsessed with buying the sleeved cables.

Anyway, thought I'd drop a line... love Corsair products! (The HX850 served me faithfully with no issues for the last 2 years)

HX850 Owner here. Seems like a great PSU to me. I will admit that I have been eying the AX1200i though.
