rm500, that is waaay out of my league
maybe budget around rm300++ (and with that i might be able to get something sub 500w)

*unless im in luck lurking in the garage sale section

well, u can always crate a WTB tread in the garage section with full detail offer

try coolermaster igreen or acbel lor.. should be cheaper yet quite stable rails... i currently using acbel 550w on my dual core opty... quite stable, previously random shutdown was caused by core temp, initially tought changing psu when facing those random shutdown problem untill i realise tht its core temp tht crash my comp... quite some ppl get tis issue in the bug report session of core temp forum.

core temp ver. 0.95 right? had that shutdown issue too. switch back to 0.94 and all is good

Try looking in FSP as well. They seems to be reliable and cheap in the same time though..

not sure though, last time using core temp dunno since when the shutdown problem occur, 0.94 or 0.95... now didnt use core temp, use speedfan instead, too bad it just monitor 1 core, btw, to those who experiencing random shutdown problem, if using core temp pls try close it and see whether it is causing troubles, cause sometimes the rails doesnt provide enough ampere also will cause random shut down...

anyone using thermal take 750W tough power....... i notice the rail amps are rather low even for such a big psu........

of course la..
dat is thermaltake..
not branded one like silverstone or enermax

-adios-

are you indicating that toughpower is not good because it's not branded like silverstone or enermax? can you please elaborate more on 'branded'? what actually it means here? and are you trying to tell us that all silverstone/enermax > tt toughpower? care to post and review indicating this? or personal experience? i believe there are 3 main questions there. thanks.

psu price range from pasar malam to extremely expansive branded model. wats the different actually ?

Alot, reliability , stable , quiet , efficient bla bla
Its really a no-brainer when I saw a C2D rig with godly graphic card, alot of rams with a chalang PSU. A dead PSU might drag along everything in your rig with it

anyone using sunbeam or lianli or tagan psu?

i thought fma 460w is around that price? it's really a good choice if no dual gpu involved. 33A @ +12v, ocz powerstream 520w can't even match this...

ever consider hec? not a bad brand imo, cheap + stable rails.

well thermaltake offer a quite low price for a 750W psu.............

im using HEC WinPower 480W SLi, and this psu rawks and damn stable for my part..

yup, even it's come with dual rails but d amperage for each is kinda high too (for dual rails psu). affordable but trusted brand for me.

uii... oredi v2 meh btw where`s the old disscussion?

it is here la..
still not deleted yet..

-adios-

i'm using igreen 600W now...but there's a small buzzing sound from the PSU it seems...

i read other posts...it's a sign of not enough juice ar?
