any suggestion? 450-500W @ RM200-300 is it possible?

you can get 560W Silverstone (Dual Rail though) @RM350... that's the best PSU i can suggest or, you can get FMA 460W or 535W...icon_idea.gif

I think... for those who admire PSU that looks good and have cable management with limited budget need to think a lot before actually decide to buy the PSU...

need to recheck ur system power requirements...

good suggestion .. sndr rase lorr blush.gif

my current psu still in working condition but I was thinking of modding it by sleeving its cable and so on. So if other reliable brands like Enermax or Silverstone, the psu might last longer. I'm afraid of after modding nicely this psu, then something goes wrong, "aiyaa rugi wat cantik2 chapalang psu" biggrin.gif or "wahh so nice arr you mod your psu, what brand?" "dunno, RM30 I guess" sweat.gif

are you very urgent in getting the psu? if not, why not wait for another month and save another hundred or more and get the Liberty 500W, then should be no problem even if you upgrade some little more hardware and OC... just my opinion thought... icon_rolleyes.gif

Are you serious??? Liberty 500watt price going to drop??? Currently the price is around Rm430... So any prediction on the future price.?? drool.gif .. later i can save my money... icon_idea.gif

I planned to get the liberty 400watt, since it doesn't have enough juice to power my rig in extreme use, I leave the liberty 400watt behind... " I WANT A NICE PSU" arrrgghhh vmad.gif

Guys, I was planning to get Silverstone OP650 next week. But currently I am thinking to get something modular. Is there any PSU that used single rail and at the same time Modular?

oh ya, my friend told me that modular PSU is not that good. Is that true?

thanks guys

Silverstone also provide Decathlon series which is comes with powerful 90A single rail and modular design, if you want to get a non-modular, Olympia then...thumbup.gif, yeah, in comparison, multi-rail isn't good as single rail smile.gif

There is no example can be given.
Only explanation.

A Single rail PSU is much much stable compared to those two +12V Rails or more.

If you want to use a psu that has many +12v rails in it, yes you can, but make sure that the psu is confirmed stable, and has high amps on each of the +12V rails, such as the Enermax Galaxy DXX 850W and Enermax Galaxy DXX 1KW.

The two psu i've said above has at least 22Amps per +12V rails, and the Enermax Galaxy DXX 1KW as five +12 Rails in it.

However, single +12V rails psu is much much better, but still, those High wattage psu with single +12V rails is very very expensive.

Take PCP&C Turbocool 1KW as an example, the PCP&C is 1000W and utilize single +12V Rail with more than 90AMPs in that one and only +12V Rail.

It's the king of PSU. wub.gif

...and Silverstone Olympia OP1000; Olympia OP1200 and Decathlon 1200, all single rail @>90A, only one make difference, OP series non-modular while Decathlon series, modular sleep.gif

I have a strange problem with my PSU.

it's an enermax infiniti 650watts PSU.

it's PSU fan will not spin and gives off a beeping warning when I plug it into an old Pentium 3 system with very little peripherals. (2 hdd, 1 geforce 2, 2 optical drives and no case fan, 256mb ram)

but it works without a problem or warning when I plug it into an AMD 2500+ system. ( 1 sata hdd, 1 6600GT AGP, 2 12cm casing fan and 1 gig of ram)

Is this normal?

can anyone confirm this?

SilverStone Strider 560W or
Enermax FMA Iron Power 535W?

Made a thread a while ago and it was suggested for me to get the Enermax PSU but now after reading a few threads...I wonder if it's enough.
