looks good if you have no problems with hec, I don't. Are you upgrading though? A 1000 watts is for an insane system

i was going to buy an hec b/c they're so cheap, but I went with Raidmax instead. Nobody likes raidmax either but they've been good to me.

I have a Raidmax PSU as well. I heard some crazy rumors about them having false wattage's but I don't believe them. Mines works great for me.

Not crazy rumors; established fact. You've got a 300W-350W power supply there, it's a good thing you're only pulling 250W-300W.

 

[KRAZYTRUCKER]

If it sounds to good to be true it probably is. Why do people always want to go cheap on psu? Would you want the cheapest artificial heart if you needed one? pretty much same thing.

I don't understand why they would flat-out lie like that and sell you something that is supposedly 530W and you get a 300W instead. I'm pissed.

They're hardly the worst.

Can you find anything on the Raidmax PSU's? Funny thing is, I have a 500W Linkworld that I used for a while. Worked fine it was just ridiculously loud. That's why I upgraded.

 

[Phaedrus2129]

Hm, nothing in the PSU review thread. I got my info from Shinji2k, I'd want his opinion.
