I'm not insulting you. Don't think it as such please. Just trying to clarify things only.
I'm just curious how come there's a lot of forumers (even some supposedly senior ones) recently that claims Powerlogic as a good mid range psu and that it's better than Icute.
Is it because Powerlogic sounds more western compared to Icute?
I've been googling out of curiousity and couldn't find anything about it except that it's by a Singaporean disty Leapfrog and that it only appears in Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia.
It can simply be some cheap-a$$ generic china sweatshop product stuck with a label.
Could anybody help clarify?
Thanks.
I have not done any research as of now & I am not claiming that I am an expert in the field. But I can't agree less with 'bro Sinper there. Powerlogic, iCute, AVR, etc. are NOT PSU's you want to be overclocking with. They are neither stable nor reliable (from past experiences). The quality of the components & make is just not up to par with those that are MADE for power. "cheap-a$$ generic china sweatshop product" would be a crude way of putting it I'm just curious how come there's a lot of forumers (even some supposedly senior ones) recently that claims Powerlogic as a good mid range psu and that it's better than Icute.

Unless the above brands are re-labeled versions of DELTA or AcBel PSU's, I don't think I'll be willing to put my precious hardware at risk. And I won't recommend you guys to do it as well. Simply because it's NOT WORTH IT.
If you guys are serious about overclocking, go for a good, reliable PSU. I'm running my rig on an ancient Enlight 420W. As stable as a rock, although the 12v-line only registers 11.97v. You can hardly see any fluctuations.
Having high voltages on your lines doesn't mean you have a good PSU. It just means your PSU has high voltage rails. Stability can NOT be determined like this.
Well, that's my 2-cent's worth. Sifoos, please correct me if I'm wrong
