PC Peripherals Need recommendations for a 500-600w PSU

Never heard of delta so i guess i'm not as knowledgeable about psu's as i thought :(
basically reviews of seasonics always note that the quality of their capacitors (especially the secondary ones) are top-of-the line japanese caps. as other brands use high quality caps only for the primary caps. also they have the best results for clean power/ripple tests etc.
channel well is also a high-end psu maker (corsiar's hx series is by them) but they don't have their own retail brand unlike seasonic.
Usually seasonic is cheaper since it's not going through another brand/intermediate and channel well can at best be said to match seasonic in quality.

Here's some helpful links;

Those are nice and informative links, after having read those articles, inclined towards the CS550M/650M series that have 80 plus gold certification and a 5 year warranty. Any thoughts on the models? Between the Seasonic S12II 520/630W which ones would you recommend?
 
never owned a corsair psu so can't speak about them.
i have the seasonic s12 520w myself. if you plan on overclocking, then seasonic would be the way to go.
the only downside of the 520w version is that it has only one 8-pin connector. so if your gpu needs more than one 8-pin connector then go for the 620w model.

I spoke to Kaizen today and they said they will RMA my TX750v2, the person on the phone mentioned I will get a RM750, let's see if they actually go through with it.
