My old PSU got surged hit & gotto get a new one.
What I've got in mind is something that would last me a long time.
It's to power up i7 980x & 3x GTX480

I'm abit greedy & only thinks that the higher would be better.
After considering I'm abit worried that too high would suck me up on my electrical bill.
At the same time those PSU have energy saving mode when it's not on full load.
This is the head cracking part. If not for the power sucking part I would have get the highest one.
Advice needed on this pls...

After a long research I've finally shortlisted the below 3.
Which one should I get
Seasonic P-1000 1000w (Platinum)
Seasonic X-1250 1250w (Gold)
Enermax MAXREVO EMR1500EGT 1500w (Gold)

1250w & 1500w would be a good one as I'm still not too sure that 1000w is sufficient for full load.
At the same time my Corsair HX-1000 got the job done. Just in time & died after the warranty period.
Guessed that I've push it to it's limit.

Between both brands that's rated as GOLD I thinks that Enermax would be the better one as It's just lessen by 1% to made to Platinum grade

Seasonic offers 7 years warranty & 5 years offered by Enermax.
The above 3 is at the same price range (RM1000.00-1100.00).
All is within budget...

i'd pick the single 12v railed Seasonic X1250.
as i don't want to bother with rail distribution on multi railed Enermax 1500.

my AX1200 is capable to running 3930K @5.0GHz + 3x GTX580 @950MHz. 3x MCP655, 18x fans, 2x HDD, 2x SSD, 1x BR burner, all rock solid stable. but i always let my GCs stay at stock speed.

ACBEL 1100WATT LIFETIME WARRANTY

Don bother Enermax, 7 years warranty is very good.
Choose Seasonic P1000 if you are not going to overclock your graphic cards, why overclock? 3x480 stock is sufficient.
Seasonic is very well known brand and tend to have less problem compare with Corsair(source from google)

Seasonic is one of the OEM Manufacture for Corsair.

Absolute crap. This one is nowhere close compare to Seasonic.
