Anyone know what is the model number for Seasonic Silence Pro 80 500W?
I have been trying to find some review for it but can't.
Btw, SilverStone Strider ST50F 500 W and Seasonic Silence Pro 80 500W, which is better?

Could Silver Stone SST-ST400 support HD5750?

Does the PSU calculator show the power rating wattage of the PSU or the wattage that the pc is actually using?

QUOTE(TechnoG @ Mar 19 2011, 10:49 AM) it's RM165  Seasonic Silence Pro 500W @ RM199, Silverstone Strider 500W @ RM199 and FSP SAGAII 500W @ RM165. If you have the budget to get the Seasonic unit, then go get it. Could you tell me where do you get those price?

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « QUOTE(Gen-X- @ Apr 29 2011, 06:47 AM) All 3 above is a good PSU. It's all comes down to budget. If you would ask me, I would say ST50F, then Silence Pro and FSP Hexa. ST50F got the performance and a nice finish look. QUOTE(CannedPenguins @ May 1 2011, 04:03 AM) I'm assuming you're referring to the Silverstone SST-ST50F-ES @ 229. In this case, the Seasonic Silence Pro 500W would by far be the best choice as the Silverstone Strider Essential SST-ST50F-ES is made by Sirtec which is a very lackluster build. Go with the Seasonic Silence Pro 500W, but just so you're aware, it uses an 80mm exhaust fan compared to the usual 120mm intake fans on most psu's. QUOTE(n3w @ May 1 2011, 09:20 AM) Another option for you. St50f-es should be under 200 bucks now in all@it. Review here. Quite stable on its 12 rails. Using one myself. I did short circuited the thing once, it still runs, believe it has some short circuit protection. Either the seasonic or silverstone, both have 80% efficiency tag. QUOTE(CannedPenguins @ May 1 2011, 09:56 AM) The general order with regards to the 3 psu's and their oem's are: Seasonic>>FSP>Sirtec *Note the extra emphasis '>>' Thanks for the advices. I have one more option, Gigabyte Odin GT 550W @ RM169. I am going to use it in a m-ATX casing so a modular PSU would help, but is this PSU any better than the ones I have mention? Btw, I don't mind taking a non-modular ones if the quality of the PSU differs greatly and would affect the lifespan of my rig. Added on May 3, 2011, 6:10 pmBtw, is there any other PSU that I missed out that would perform better than the ones I listed? This post has been edited by kuanzc: May 3 2011, 06:10 PM

QUOTE(CannedPenguins @ May 4 2011, 06:01 AM) Between the ones previously listed and around that RM200 mark, the Gigabyte Odin GT 550W @ RM169 you're looking at is a good build and one of the best bang for buck and proven options. If you don't mind though, the 12v rail is 'split' into a total of four 12v rails mediated by over current protection, so it may require you to organize your power distribution in order to not overload any rails and trip the OCP mechanism. Aside from that, everything else is solid (including the price  ). Hmm, what should I do to organize the power distribution? QUOTE(kingkingyyk @ May 4 2011, 10:06 AM) It is out of stock at Jayacom already.  Oh, any news about them restocking? Added on May 4, 2011, 8:24 pmBtw, are there other good PSU which is modular @ the price range of RM200? This post has been edited by kuanzc: May 4 2011, 08:24 PM

QUOTE(CannedPenguins @ May 5 2011, 05:52 AM) Good modular psu @ ~RM200, not that I can see. You've been spoiled with the Odin GT @ RM169, just be aware that it's not common to see something like that go for that kinda price. You'll have to see what's available locally to you and decide based on what you can buy there, unless you're willing to buy online. Haha, yea. I am surprise to see that the Odin GT is a modular PSU when I first found out. Btw, what should I do to organize the power distribution?
