    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
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817103940


    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.
