Ive had a good run with my OCZ 510. I say OCZ. The OCZ is especially good for tuning your rails. If you have a multimeter you can hook it up to your PSU and tune the rails untill they are perfict.

Seasonic..because a sonic sea is better than alphbet letters ...honestly which paticular psu's are you looking at?
I have heard good things about both...but I imagine there would be more contenders given a specific price range...

I linked to the 2 I'm looking at in my first post. And yeah I know that OCZ is good just there is always a big debate which of these two are better so I thought I'd let the forum choose for me. I'm leaning towards the OCZ 1. b/c I have one and love it. 2 b/c it has 2 fans. so we'll see what everyone else has to say.
