personally id go for the corsair...modularity, pretty strong rails, and a good warranty make it a top pick.

personally I really don`t see anyone PSU in that bunch as being hands down better than the other 2!!

I would go with the Corsair. The Silverstone is a qualtiy unit but its only a Dual rail unit with each rail rated at 18A. The OCZ is nice with its quad rails but im sceptical about its total power output on the +12v rails. The exstra ripple on the +12v rails tends to worry me a bit as well. In general it not a problem and is within tolerance.

yeah the ripple worrys me...lololol.......

40A total continuous output on the Corsair makes it a winner to me. Plus I have the HX620 so naturally I'd root for what I already have that serves me well

 

[JEDIYoda]

yes as much as I hate to admit it this time--- Corsair makes an awesome product by almost anybodys standards!!

Peace!!

If you are going to buy the Corsair, drop me a PM, I have a slightly used one sitting here I could give you a deal on.

also consider PCP&C. Silencer 700W+ etc. are pretty much top of the line material. But out of the three you mentioned I'd definitely get corsair!

The problem with warrantis are just what you described....
lets see where they will be in 5 years...
Very few companies can brag about having PDU`s that have stood the test of time!!
before I am flamed let me say read what I said-- Very few.......I didn`t say there were none.....
Nor did I name any companies...

Peace!!

I'd get this

but elsewhere. Deadeyedata has good deals on Sinverstone units.

REVIEW = this scores as one of the best Silverstone units.

$25 Antec 430 Earthwatt @ hot deals forum should do the job. There's also a $5 bonus from Buy.com.

personally I make it a habit to stay away from most antec PSU`s unless they are the newer models!!

Yet JonnyGURU gave the earthwatt 500 a solid 9 out of a possible 10 score!!

Go for it!!
