what's so hard to understand... this brand (Huntkey) has 750W range and above  , not this PSU can operate up to 750W...  |

QUOTE(imsmiko @ Sep 7 2008, 01:03 PM) I believe that Vantec is better i terms of stability, rail and quality. not for Vantec, get the real PSU manufacturer...Price is almost the same. Better go for vantec. not talking about branding, but get the real OEM one , if Silverstone, the original maker usually Impervio and Etasis, PC Power & Cooling some of their line even use Seasonic (i'm not so sure though), if CoolerMaster is Acbel (IIANM) Corsair is Seasonic also |

QUOTE(Omage007 @ Sep 7 2008, 01:14 PM) Woh, nice comparison here you got, taking something which is double the price of the Huntkey 550W one, why not compare it with the Silverstone ST50F or ST56F? (which is also more expensive the Huntkey) no, my point is spend more on PSU, as i said earlier, you have a good processor, good motherboard, good video card, overclock some more, but when comes into PSU... RM200 or even lower... i mean, come on... And for the Corsair HX520W I don't see much differences between it and the Huntkey spec. take mine for example, i only use Pentium Dual Core E2180, 2 x SATA HDD, but the PSU... 750W RED one... not comparing with same price range with the Huntkey... |

QUOTE(Omage007 @ Sep 7 2008, 01:28 PM) This is not balance at all, it is like a 1.5L car having 20" rims. . . why buy a 750W PSU when ur system only need 250W? no doubt an expensive PSU is good, but do we really need to spend so much on something extra that we didn't use it? haaa that's the point... why? because my style... get a good PSU and forget thinking upgrading PSU for like... 5~6 years... seriously , not to mention... my system is running 24/7, 100% overclocked... so i don't think it's a waste. |

haaa... that one i agree... normal usage ok la, but for overclock, 24/7 running system, high efficiency... get the reputable, branded PSU, simple as that...
other than that..., why not go to 1000W? let me ask you... why don't you get the ST56ZF @RM499 instead of ST56F RM250 or more (not sure the exact price), same price what... the reason simple... i'm planning a Crossfire system and since 1000W is too much for me, 750W will suit me enough, while 650W barely not enough plus... i got good price with 750W, then go for it la... ultimately... get a good, reputable brand PSU... |
