Hello everyone, new to the forums (registration that is but love reading the stuff here), just need quick advice on which you think is better of the two powersupplies for this build:
CPU: i5 3570K
Motherboard: ASUS P8Z77-V PRO
GPU: Sapphire HD7970 OC
HSF: CoolerMaster Hyper 212 EVO CPU Cooler
RAM: G.Skill Ares F3-1600C9D-8GAO 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3
Case: Corsair Carbide 400R Black Mid-Tower Case
Silverstone Strider Plus 850W ST85F-P $159 http://www.pccasegear.com/index.ph [...] s_id=13278
OCZ Technology ZX Series 850W $169 http://www.pccasegear.com/index.ph [...] s_id=17425
I already ordered the Silverstone Strider Plus 850W ST85F-P, but it hasn't been processed yet, so i could possibly change it. So please be quick with the advice.
Thank you
PS: i know that 850W is overkill for the current system but i want it for future proofing and potential X-fire later on. So please recommend one of the two i listed above, with reasoning if possible. I've considered other alternatives like the HX-850 but it is too expensive at $215, so i found the two above to best best priced and within my budget.
