Default OCZ or Cooler Master?

Hey. I'm going to get a Q6600 in a few days, but my old PSU is probably not going to handle it, so I'm looking at getting a new one. I was looking at these two since they're not so expensive

Btw, i'm not going to buy from newegg, just saying.
Which one of these is better? I don't think i'm going to run SLI in the future, though I will probably upgrade my GPU to a GTX285 in the future.

OCZ over CM. But I think corsair makes a better power supply then OCZ does.

I used to have a coolermaster 600watt extreme psu and I had no problems with my e7200 and sli 9800gt's. I probably think the ocz is better and I have heard the "extreme" coolermaster are crap, but my old on was just fine!

Nope. They bought PC P&C but have only integrated their design features into very high end PSUs, as far as I'm aware.
