    OCZ vs Antec

    I need opinions on which PSU I should use. Here is what it will be running:

    AMD AthlonX2 3800+
    2GB OCZ DDR500 Gold
    DFI LanParty SLi-DR Mobo
    Creative X-Fi FPS Fatal1ty Sound Card
    Saphirre X850XT PE (Will upgrade later to GTX or above)
    (2)WD Raptors 74GB
    Sony DVD-Burner
    USB Mouse
    USB Keyboard
    USB HOTAS

    Here are my options:

    OCZ PowerStream 600 Watt SLi
    We’re sorry, but this page does not existing. Please visit our home page for more information.


    Or

    Antec NeoHE 500 Watt SLi



    If the NeoHE will run that setup and eventually SLi down the road, then I'd love to get that one. The OCZ is already mine but I will probably turn around and sell it if the NeoHE will run that setup. I also like that the NeoHE is modular and pre-sleeved.

    i'd just keep the OCZ, but yah the Antec will run your "current" rig and in SLI. but as far as future upgrades and concerns w/ stability.. then OCZ all the way... esp. the adjustable adjustable voltage outputs.

      Yah I did like that. I'm getting that one direct from OCZ for much cheaper then retail and I can also get the NeoHE cheapter then that (I know a guy who works for them, I'm also getting the ram from him cheap too, lol).

      My friend has the OCZ one and I do like it, the two things about the NeoHE I liked were the sleeving and the modular cables (makes for less wiring usually).

        I'd just stay with the OCZ, if it's that cheap you really can't go wrong.

          I say OCZ, they're customer service is amazing. The overnighted my my RMA at no extra charge. Them spending $60 just to ship me a $100 PSU really put them up there in my book.

            If u alreadyhave the OCZ, no need in getting a neopower HE. If u were to get a antec PSU, get the Truepower2.0 550w or Truecontrol II, they're the best from ANtec.

              Well my plan was to re-sell the OCZ and keep the Antec, but I will probably just keep the OCZ and skip the Antec all toegether. I guess I can just sling the extra cables onto the other side of my mobo tray.
