Help Me PSU Guru's!!!

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
Hello fellow OCN members, I hope your having a good week, I definitely am.

I've been fixing some PC's lately and will have about $100 to spend (can go a tiny bit over but I'd hate to) to get a nice PSU for my sig rig, Blue Plasma.

I figured I'd go with a 750Watt just in case I decide to SLI or CFX and this is the question I have,

Is this a good power supply:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182264

And with that power supply it is a bit cheaper than this one, which is non modular but clearly states continuous at 50C while the one above only hints at that in the bottom of the specifications page which may be an error. Can you see if this one above is "good", because I'd prefer to not pay $14 more for a non-modular PSU.

Thanks for your help!

You linked the same PSU twice...
The stats look good, solid 12V rail. Reviews seem to insinuate the quality control is bad though. Your call.

Rosewill Capstone is a very good PSU. TwoCables seems to recommend it all the time also.

It's just newegg messing up its listings.... they're identical (apart from the modular board, of course)... and they're excellent units.

That's good to hear, I guess I'll order this in the next 2 weeks and then I'll finally be able to relax and not worry about my generic psu randomly blowing up.
