Default Which Psu?
I'm looking for 850-1000 watt psu and I'm having a problem figuring out which one is best. Here are my choices.

ZALMAN ZM1000-HP 1000W
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817379009

SILVERSTONE ST1000 1000W
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817256020

ENERMAX Galaxy EGX850EWL
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817194020

CORSAIR CMPSU-1000HX
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139007

Antec TruePower Quattro TPQ-1000
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817371012

I think all of them would be great psu and I really like the corsair and its 199 after mail-in rebate but I hear that corsair rebates are really bad and your planning on waiting at least 3 months. I haven't heard nothing on ENERMAX,SILVERSTONE or ANTEC

The silverstone unit is ST series. Corsair is the way to go. I got their rebate in 6 weeks. Just make sure you follow up.

Corsair or Enermax galaxy (the high end ones are pertty good). Antec is pretty good at that price point too, but after MIR, the HX1000 is tops, hands down
