zhen^wei tell me cannot RMA le due to noise the other time when I asked him I'm from Melaka =/ and exams coming soon don't know when only can go to your office lor. If cannot arrange then after Hari Raya holidays I'll send it by courier already (last choice  ). I just send it to the same address that you guys sent to me right? If my PSU indeed faulty... I shall go for something better ._. lol Coolermaster Real Power M520 looks real sexy to me  .

huntkey PSU seems cheap and worth for the price if you believe in what the manufacturer claims but in reality the PSU only has 70% efficiency and is using obsolete design, low quality components, and kinda unsafe as well; the 450W version exploded after loading it beyond 360W. http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/527This post has been edited by cyew86: Sep 26 2008, 08:20 PM

perhaps for the price getting a Cooler Master is even a better choice but i have read the review of Silverstone ST50EF, it is even better, efficiency of minimum 80% and still can run when loaded with almost 600W of power, talk about real good quality product

yeah man i agree....i've browse browse most ppl's rig....almost all using st56ef...or st50ef....so i guess that brand is pretty nice.. but then again the price range is about the same...the reason why i'm getting a higher psu it's cuz i'm thinking of adding additional stuffs in...maybe extra cooler...maybe extra ram... :dizzy:  Corsair VX550w is very tempting...the single rail power output is very assuring  ... i guess i'm getting that ...zzz...
