Since im on agp platform, single 12v rail would be good enough.
So can anyone recommends me good sub 500w single rail psu thats affordable and decent enough?
So far i saw enermax 460 fma looks like a good candidate, juz that i cant get the price tag and where to look for it.

*or i should consider to sell my x2 off instead
*
Single rail - Silverstone Zeus
not sure if it fits your budget but its a very good PSU

rm500, that is waaay out of my league cry.gif
maybe budget around rm300++ (and with that i might be able to get something sub 500w)

*unless im in luck lurking in the garage sale section

Try looking in FSP as well. They seems to be reliable and cheap in the same time though..

not sure though, last time using core temp dunno since when the shutdown problem occur, 0.94 or 0.95... now didnt use core temp, use speedfan instead, too bad it just monitor 1 core, btw, to those who experiencing random shutdown problem, if using core temp pls try close it and see whether it is causing troubles, cause sometimes the rails doesnt provide enough ampere also will cause random shut down...

are you indicating that toughpower is not good because it's not branded like silverstone or enermax? can you please elaborate more on 'branded'? what actually it means here? and are you trying to tell us that all silverstone/enermax > tt toughpower? care to post and review indicating this? or personal experience? i believe there are 3 main questions there. thanks.

Alot, reliability , stable , quiet , efficient bla bla smile.gif
Its really a no-brainer when I saw a C2D rig with godly graphic card, alot of rams with a chalang PSU. A dead PSU might drag along everything in your rig with it

i thought fma 460w is around that price? it's really a good choice if no dual gpu involved. 33A @ +12v, ocz powerstream 520w can't even match this... thumbup.gif

ever consider hec? not a bad brand imo, cheap + stable rails. smile.gif
