matrix,the reviews that you posted aren't good psu reviews.
bearing in mind that most psus in a single range is a modification of a single design,here's the review for the 750w unit.

as you can see there's too much ripple and noise.if it's a cheap unit like the cm epp,then it's a given but on units with such price you can get better ones like this one

Exactly. This thing I already posted last time too.
Actually, one should know that CM GX is APFC and 80+ but they're cheaper than CM Real Power(also APFC and 80+). So, you know...(quality and performance) I think I no need to explain further already.

For me, when choosing PSU, I would avoid CoolerMaster Brand(even some of it's models are great).
Corsair will be avoided too due to overprice. tongue.gif

I feel you man. Other brands also have disadvantages lah, but banning CM PSU just for some cases is nothing more than fanboyism that many people hate to admit to be one doh.gif

I didn't boycott all those CM PSU at all.
Just that, some of the models/series are bad. Real Power and Silence Pro Series will always be my choice if their price is as cheap as the other brands. tongue.gif
FYI, I hate Corsair more due to it's stupid overprice. doh.gif
