red930 Posted April 21, 2006 Posted April 21, 2006 OCZ, or as an alternate choice the 700 watt Fortron. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stickx Posted April 21, 2006 Posted April 21, 2006 OCZ without a doubt. Much better PSU. Enermax Liberty ELT620AWT is another good one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Timmay Posted April 21, 2006 Posted April 21, 2006 Silverstone ST60F, but Im bias. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimandsally Posted April 21, 2006 Posted April 21, 2006 The Silverstone is supposed to be miles better than the OCZ, take a look at this review; http://www.jonnyguru.com/PSU/ST60F/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
newguy Posted April 21, 2006 Posted April 21, 2006 I'll take the Silverstone for quad rails & Active PFC. The only concern is the noise, hope that they really get rid of this problem with the 120mm fan Another review... http://www.insanetek.com/review.php?id=159&page=8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

twigert Posted April 22, 2006 Posted April 22, 2006 I have the same problem as you choosing between 2 ps's, but for me it between the ocz powerstream 600w and the 700w Fortron. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
turok_t Posted April 22, 2006 Posted April 22, 2006 This decision that I need to make it driving me crazy... The only reason is that I want to make a careful decision so I dont have any regrets and that Im not wasting any money Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsyCLown Posted April 22, 2006 Posted April 22, 2006 I say the OCZ PSU! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arklab Posted April 22, 2006 Posted April 22, 2006 Provided you don't HAVE to get something right now - just to keep running, .... 1) From what RGone has said plus 2) From what is reported at all the latest computer shows NOTHING, right now! :eek2: RGone is reporting bigtime trouble with ALL the PSUs, except the FPS 700W. And he seems uncertain as to its suatability for the hardware comming up even later this year-next year (if I read him right). And the reports from ALL the major PSU makers at the shows ALL say they are about to introduce PSU's at 1000W and above! I kinda like Silverstone - provided you keep the rails ballanced. But I woudn't buy anything over $100 RIGHT NOW if I could avoid it. Check out the show reviews yourself. There must be SOME reason EVERYONE is moving to 1000W.
