Which PSU Should I Get?

I can vouch that kingwin has a good rma service lol

but for 90$ I think one of the new antec true powers would be better, thoughts?
 
A 650w PSU would easily handle your system load.
 
Wow, sounds to me like that OCZ isn't putting out it's rated power.
 
Your 465's are rated at 200w TDP each. Unless you run them 100% loaded (Furmark/Folding) they will never pull that much a piece. The rest of the system is probably around 150-175w max. You should have plenty of power.

would you trust the kingpin 850w PSU?
 
I would go with the pc power one. I have never used a kingwin but I have had many PCPAC and have never had any issues....unlike the three antec ones I've fried.
 
I can't help the OP but I'd thought i would throw in my own questions about what power supplies i should be looking at for my current build.

Asus M3a78-EM http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=KjpYqzmAd9vsTM2D
Phenom II 550 (80watt)
Corsair XMS2 2x2gb ddr2 800
HD5850 1gb (reference) (relevant? http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/radeon-hd-5850,2433-13.html)
standard DVD-Rom (IDE)
2x Seagate 7200.12 750gb HDD

>>Not sure on the required wattage I should be aiming for in a PSU!

But, to the top with the thread and perhaps the OP will garner more info in my wake.

~500W, and your question has nothing to do with this thread so it really shouldn't be in here.

i found a new power supply it is for 86 i believe on amazon.

it's the silverstone OP700

http://www.silverstonetek.com/products/p_contents.php?pno=op700&area=

is the Silverstone better or should i just go with the Kingwin

Kingwin.
 
It should be a pretty decent PSU. It's a Superflower, and it's probably similar to the 1000W Mach 1 and Lazer models.
