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...  This post has been edited by picksickrick: Sep 26 2008, 08:45 PM |

Greetings to all!
I'm a Gainward HD4850 GS user, unfortunatelly with the older version.  In next days I'm planing to send back the card for RMA. This time I wish to ask you about visible differences between the old HD4850 GS and the new (bug free) one. Any picture would be useful for me.  Regards!
