Eh. I believe those are Huntkey units. They are just ok but there are better choices.

Default corsair hx1000w

So I'm thinking about getting this corsair hx1000watt power supply. I found what would appear to be deal at $170.00 free shipping. If I apply for buy.com credit card $190.00 less a $20.00 rebate. I hate rebates but well in any case $170.00 for this power supply seems like a good deal to me. Does any one have any two pennies they would like to share with me on this toppic. I would like to be able to power hihger end GPU's down the road and was just wondering if for the money this is what I should get or is there better??? here is the link to the power supply.

That is an excellent power supply and a good price too. Looking at your sig I don't think you could make much use of it, none of your hardware is particularly power hungry, but from what I have read it is of very good quality. If you are getting a new power supply anyway that might just be the one to get.

In the 100-200 dollar range you should add the Thermaltake Toughpower 750w.. I have had mine for over a year and I have had zero problems with it. And if you take a look at some of the reviews for it, it has some of the most stable voltages of any PSU under idle or full load. (and I can confirm that with mine, they do not move no matter what you throw at it).

**Edit**
Hah, its already on the list, my bad

HEC Zephyr 750watt Active PFC SLi and CrossfireX certified @ 70$, its amazing.

HEC used to make some passable budget stuff but I think anymore they aren't worth much. Hard to say for sure since I can't find any substantial info or reviews but the 2 year warranty doesn't make me feel good.

*edit*
This was the only "review" I could find and it was the 650W version: http://www.pcstats.com/articleview.c...id=2081&page=1

Just by the pictures it is an older group regulated design with only average efficiency and build quality. Barring any real testing I would avoid it and save up the few dollars more for something like a Corsair 750, Silencer 750 or this (an amazing deal for $80 after MIR).

Thanks, well down the road I plan on sli 2 x 9800 gtx+ or gtx280 no sure which gpu's yet. I'll also be using a lot of fans and may change to a phenom 9950 BE and try to oc it. I'll probably use muli hdd's as well. I thinking it would be nice to have a power supply that wont cough down the road when I throgh a decent size load at it.
