Modstream is ok for a medium range rig.

Would not get the other one, so it's good he backed out of that one... you're getting the better of the two (although less power)

I've never used a Raidmax...but I've had 2 Ultras and regret them both to this day. Try the Sunbeam NUUO. It's a little more expensive, but very reliable.

I would not put an Ultra in my rig if I got it for free... Don't know much about Raidmax, and that on it's own is not a good thing

the nuuo is easily worth every penny... and is about 1000x better then the Ultra... so it's well worth the extra cash
