    PSU suggestions

    I'm looking around for a high-quality power supply that suits my needs. Specs in sig, and 5 hard drives (I'll end up with around 7 or 8). Aiming for something that'll last me a good 3-4 years, through each upgrade.

    Thanks.

    I suggest the OCZ PowerStream 520W. Has really stable (adjustable) rails.

      Antec is usually a pretty good bet. Obviously with that rig you will need something very high in wattage. I would say drop a 600 in there.

            If you've got the money you can't go wrong with PCP&C.

              Thanks for your replies.
              I was originally dead set on the PCP&C 510w SLI-Deluxe, but I've come to realize that it's rather expensive (although, not much more than most other quality psus with similar or equal capabilities).
              The good news is that I also have the option to run a second psu (which I probably will do, seeing as this psu is fine, just not future-proof) in order to power non-critical components. I'm gonna try to narrow it down this weekend.

                  I would suggest since you have so many HDD that you put some in an external enclousure and use (2) two PSUs...and for the main case PSU I would also suggest you read this thread....HERE...get something at least 500W and possible with a Vid card power connection...this way you dont have to use the crapy adapters (that cause losses) to power your gfx card....
