QUOTE(owikh84 @ Sep 28 2008, 08:30 AM) I'm using Xigmatek 750W bought at RM450 from RobynComp/rockrock Greatest packaging I've ever seen so far. I can OC kaw2 without any issues as compared to my previous Huntkey. The 140mm blue LED fan is cool & noiseless. The only downside that I'm not happy is the 8pin mobo cable is too short for cable management in my CM690 case. U'll need to get an extension cable to route it under the mobo tray. Other than that, no cons. Reviewon my list bro!!! |

guys, what would you choose between Corsair HX620, Corsair TX750?
price range almost the same for the corsairs, forget about the modular ability of HX620
thinking about PC P&C 750W too

Should depends on your builds,
No. of hardwares & power demands.
@ the similar price,
the modular ones enables easier cable management'
while the TX gives you extra watts if you going to xfire/SLi.
U can shave off few cables strangling around if you got less no. of hardwares/single gpu setup, when using the HX.
