Also, my Tagan 480W is just $91 here: http://www.rackmountnet.com/index.php?products_id=346 And I've found it excellent - it truly is silent, I really can't hear it, and I have a silent PC

Will look into the Tagan.
Thanks !

I know, I read that review, and just thought that compared to all these other models, they shouldn't be on the list. At least until the ripple issue is resolved.
I wouldn't recommend a PSU in the condition to anyone.
Same thing goes for the Antec TruePower line. I can tell you from first hand experience that I've had one die on me, and the review on JonnyGuru tells a similar story. Hence, I didn't include them.

They could be great PSU's, but I need to see them in action. As I mentioned, there are other great PSU's out there that aren't included in the list.
As I don't review them personally, I'm just recommending what is proven to be 100% reliable. Specifically the reviews from JonnyGuru.

Don't feel bad if your PSU isn't included.

@ Mootsfox: Jonny didn't just review one GameXstream, and one FSP... He reviewed many, and they ALL had the same ripple issue.
If I post up what EVERY member recommends, the list will be full of Hipers, Aspires, CoolerMasters, you name it. There are still many PSU's I have yet to add, including some Ultra ones, and Thermaltakes.

Oh no, I'm not ruling either OCZ or FSP out. Just those series atm. And my list is ever-updating, so I will add new ones from ANY company, as long as they're proven to be reliable under extreme circumstances.

I said I'll be using Newegg as reference, since it's easier to find stuff on there.

But I am aware that The Egg doesn't carry certain brands, so those I would have to list from other vendors.

Securemart.com for example has the best prices for the Antec NeoHE 550/500, TruePower Trio 550/650 and Corsair HX520/620, but their site doesn't have pictures, user reviews and is rather hard to navigate. |
Just updated the guide.
