If you are talking about overall build quality Seasonic is not the best

Voltage regulation is just as important as ripple, a PSU with bad voltage regulation like the EVGA SuperNova NEX750G is almost as bad a PSU with high ripple the system wont run as stable then if voltage regulation was tighter. I think that 1,5% or better is a must for a good PSU, 2% is not that bad but not great 2,5% or higher is not really good and above 3% is not what anyone wants

As far as i know i dont have anything to do with that article on tomshardware. If it was not such a major job of reworking the entire code i would do that and post the entire thread here Why? as far as i have seen TechPowerUp gets pretty much the same results as JG. So if that is case why should they be a bad review site?

If you have not noticed every time there is a new model or a new review the OP in those threads gets updated. So yes they might have been made in January 2013 but i try as hard as i can to keep them up to date so out of date they are not Off course i might have missed something here and there i cant be everywhere all at once. I dont see the point to make post in a thread or even a whole new thread when all i have to do is update the OP in the thread thats already there

Outdated how so please explain? i dont mind updating things or making them better, But its not like i have not bothered doing anything

Its a brand as in they sell PSU

Johnny Guru dont work at JohnnyGuru.com anymore he works for Corsair now. Oklahoma Wolf is the one doing the reviews for JohnnyGuru.com now. And i think you should check the link and view the OCN version which is better, And yes there is some not so good stuff on that list but there is not any kind of outright junk that cant do its rated wattage While i might not be JohnnyGuru or Oklahoma Wolf i know quite alot as well so just becasue you dont know me on this site does not mean i dont know what i am talking about Corsair and Seasonic are not the only two PSU brands in the world there are tons of stuff out there that are just as good or even some that is better, There are far too much out there that is far too underrated. Just because you have not heard of something does not make it junk

Thanks if this forum is not dead and less adversarial i might just stick around

Normally i stick to OCN but i thought some of you here might find this interesting http://www.overclock.net/t/1482157/best-fully-modular-700-750-watts-psu#post_22109815 Other work http://www.overclock.net/t/1431929/psu-index-thread I get asked very often what is the best fully modular 700-750 watts PSU? so instead of answering that every time i am going to make another info thread well sort of. First off before i begin no i have not reviewed any of these units nor do i claim any credit for it, Its all done by Techpowerup so all credit goes to them. Since Techpowerup does not have reviews for every single 700-750 watts PSU i can only pick the ones they have reviewed which means the Cooler Master V700 is not in thread however sad that might be. Now the overall winners here is the EVGA SuperNova G2 and the Super Flower Leadex they have the best ripple suppression of them all, And they the second best voltage regulation after the AXi, And they are cheaper then all the others besides the SilverStone and the NZXT. And both G2 and Leadex its pretty much the same price as the Corsair RM. So the winner of best value also goes to the G2 and Leadex Corsair AXi is second best here its voltage regulation is better then the Leadex/G2 yes but its ripple is nowhere as good and the price its sold at is far too high Corsair AX760 and the Seasonic X are in the middle here but again the Leadex/G2 are almost always priced cheaper so not really worth it unless they are on sale The worst of them all is the is NZXT HALE 82 V2 its has the oldest and cheapest platform used the worst ripple and the second worst voltage regulation, Dont buy this one its crap Second worst is the EVGA SuperNova NEX750G it has the second worst/cheapest platform used worst voltage regulation but ripple is not actually that bad. Dont buy this one either its mediocre and way overpriced as well Third worst is the the SilverStone Strider Gold S it has third worst ripple but its voltage regulation is only fourth worst. Again not really worth buying its very small size might make up for it somewhat but still not great Fourth worst is the Corsair RM ripple is the fifth worst just ahead of the Seasonic X but voltage regulation is third worst. Again not the best thing you can buy compared to the 4 best and its priced far too high compared to what you get

Sorry about that it has been fixed now

I have been working on my PC for some time now and i thought i would give an update although it isn't finished yet it is still work in process at this stage And yes i know the PC is dusty and i have done a piss poor job with the cable management Case: Coolermaster HAF X Power Supply: Corsair AX1200 Motherboard: Asus Rampage III Black Edition CPU: Core I7 975 Cooling: Noctua NH-U12P SE2 with 2x NF-P12 Extra Fans 1x 230mm in front 1x200mm in the side 1x 120mm cooling the GPU inside the case 2x200mm in the top and 1x140mm in the rear all are Bitfenix Spectre Pro fans with red LED´s RAM: 3x4 GB Kingston HyperX 1600Mhz CL9 Graphics Card: XFX Radeon HD 7950 DD 800/1250 MHz Soundcard: Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro Series SSD as boot drive: Kingston SSDNow V+ 128GB Hard Drives: 1x WD Caviar Black WD2002FAEX 2 TB and 1x WD Caviar Green WD20EADS 2 TB Optical Drives: 1x LG CH10LS20 Super Multi Blue Blu-Ray and 1x Pioneer DVR 216D DVD Fan Controller: Zalman ZM-MFC1 Plus Extra Cables: All the 3 pin fan cables are Bitfenix Alchemy cables in black was going for red but they where out of stock also got an Bitfenix Alchemy 8 Pin EPS extended cabel in red Future plans are complete replacement cable pack for the Corsair AX1200 all cables will be in RED Also plans for another Radeon HD 7950 After Ivy Bridge-E has been released i will jump to LGA 2011 but that will be very late 2012 or early 2013 The reason why i call my bulid Zeta is because it's my sixth PC build and Zeta is the sixth letter in the greek alphabet

The next thing i have planned is to replace my Kingston SSDNow V+ 128 GB SSD with the new Kingston HyperX 240 GB SSD before the year is over

All clock speeds are just stock for now and the idle temps for the CPU are 31-35c and 64c for the 8800 GTX in idle. I haven't had time yet to max i out so i cant tell you the max temps. And yeah i just couldn't find a good speakers system for the PC so i decided to get a good Hi-Fi system insted. I also have a Onkyo BD-SP808 Blu-Ray player hooked up to the NR-808

I tried but the cam can't pick up the red color in the dark for some reson
