QUOTE(gsan @ May 10 2007, 08:42 PM) if you're not going to upgrade your hardware in future eg. quadcore or high end gfx SLI something like that, both enermax 460w or acbel 450w is more than enough. yeah, maybe i'll never going to quaddies or SLi..  btw, any forummer here had bad experience with both of this psu..? -adios-

Juz got my strider 560w. Wow, its damn heavy. And somehow theres a sticker V3 (version 3 or something) Compared to some of the reviews, mine comes with dual 20A @ both 12v rails. (40A total) Tested on my system, the hissing is still there. (its actually my mobo's voltage regulator section is makin the noise  ) So that pins out that my 370w psu is ok. Guess my strider will go to garage sale section anytime soon (sorry silverstone, your product is good, but i need monies  )

Guess my strider will go to garage sale section anytime soon (sorry silverstone, your product is good, but i need monies  ) normally, it's 18A for each 12V rail for older model. according to Silverstone Website, the latest one is 20A. so fast czone get the latest batch of psu. anyway, i just found out a shop in lowyat that sells FSP Epsilon PSU.

QUOTE(Are_keem @ May 10 2007, 05:43 PM) ok, its my time to buy a new psu.. tight budget here, only around rm280+..  between enermax FMA II 460w and acbel i-power 450w, which one is better..? quite dislike the enermax bcause it looks like chapalang one  .. but the fan speed controller really nice.. on the other hand, acbel is quite attractive with black finishing and LED fan (dont really mind this since had heard many complains bout burning LED) so, any suggestions and comments? gonna upgrading to these : AMD X2 3800+ abit KN9 ultra 7300gt DDR3 2gb of value ram 2 hdds + 1 optical drives also 4-5 120mm fan -adios- Go for the Enermax FMA because it has rear exhaust fan. Rear exhaust fan is the most important thing for psu cooling.

Theres slim chances to find FMA now. Been scouting around LYP yesterday, cant find it. All have been replaced by FMAII (dual rail, combined 32A at 12v rail) Got myself a strider instead (40A combined)

Make sure u got the DXX version cause it's the latest model of FMA II which can supports nowadays 6+2 pin (this is what we call DXX power) graphic card like x2900. for more info u can check here http://www.enermax.com/english/product_Display1.asp?PrID=54
