If you could afford the Seasonic, I'd recommend going with it. . Seasonic is a top quality manufacturer .

I'd go with the Vantec ION. I have the Cooler Master Extreme Power Plus, and it's not really good.

However, do consider getting a Cooler Master Real Power PRO 550W for only RM150 from BuckRoger instead.

It's not used, it's a new unit, however, I don't think any one knows where he had gotten them from. Anyways, what's there to fear when there's lingloong and zhen^wei, as well as asamkipas for their RMA services? .

If you had bothered looking at their RMA thread, then you'll know why.

As for the unit, I've bought a Cooler Master Real Power PRO 650W from him. It's fine, but it's rather scratchy. If you're still worried, then PM Fariz ( a Staff ), he should have the 550W version.

It's impossible to remove the warranty sticker by Cooler Master on one of the screws on the PSU that you will need to remove to access its internals, so there's nothing to worry about.

For your info, yes, many of the people who have bought the PSU from him certainly saw him in real, since there's no way to hide himself when CODing. As for my unit, yes, mine does have the warranty sticker .

Well, if you're really worried, just inspect the PSU before handing over your cash. If you're not impressed then just politely cancel the deal .

The Cooler Master Extreme Power Plus 500W isn't exactly recommended . I have one, and it's not very good. Go with the Silverstone, you'd be happier, plus the quality is much better.

Should be worth it as the Huntkey isn't exactly very well liked, not to mention that Seasonic is one of the top manufacturers for power supplies. Their power supplies have an excellent efficiency rating and quality.

. I'd still say Seasonic wins due to the excellent efficiency as well as quality .

Yeah, that isn't a problem.

Yes, it will support without any problems. Cooler Master Silent PRO series is one of their top quality PSUs, so you don't have to worry about the quality. And yes, it's silent, which is why they gave it the name.


A single card consumes around 188W on load, through a search here :

HD5870 PC

So 800W is more than enough . You could run your system with a 750W PSU with two HD5870s.

Well, if you could afford, go for it. Seasonic is one of the top PSU manufacturers . Their PSUs have an excellent efficiency rating as well as quality .

The rest? Well the rating that they have is their peak power, and not their true rating, so if you could actually consider the Cooler Master Silent PRO 500W, go for it.

And yes, 500W is enough for your system, provided that the 500W is the PSU's true rating and not its peak power.

Oh, and the 80+ certification is for showing that the PSU has an efficiency of more than 80%.

If the model has an S in front e.g S 12 II, then it's non modular. Models with an M e.g M 12 II is a modular version.

Well, that was what you posted



And what you were asking



So I thought you got them mixed up .

Anyway, try looking for reviews on it from the internet, then maybe you could see what cables are attached . But what I think is, most probably the 24 pin cable would be attached, while the rest will be modular.

. I don't think they would replace the PSU for you if there's no problem. Plus, it shouldn't spoil too easily.

Yes, your PC components could get damaged due to the insufficient power. Also, you'll experience hangs, game crashes and more.

The Cooler Master eXtreme Power 430W's true rating is around 360W ~ 400W, if I'm not mistaken, so it's not really recommended to use this power supply. Try the FSP Saga+ 450W at RM165 instead.
