Hey guys im just lookin to cut ym budget down a little and i saw this PSU that looked really cool and had more wattage than the true power trio but im wondering if i could still put my 8800GTS on this thing and how relyable is it. It has some pretty good reviews as does the true power trio but i just want verification heres the link. Also about the BFG 650W and the COOLMAX 650W ill post those link also.

You could get so many other better non-exploding power supplies for $119. Why would anyone even bother?
 
The Real Alice Cooper would not use one. He's not gonna take it, nuh nuh nuh nuh

Getting off topic there. But, none of those are good choices. Why not drop an extra 10 on a Silverstone Olympia 650 from Deadeyedata.com with coupon code JONNYGURU and have a psu that just wins? Not as blingy..

Just remember, if you have a $120 psu with $50 worth of bling, that leaves you with.. a $70 psu selling for $120. Then, minus the shipping, the profits, and you have a pretty crappy psu that you paid a big premium for.
 
So what are some good 650W-700W PSU's that are for $110-125 that wont explode on me and can run my 8800GTS 640MB with an OCed proc???
 
I like how the Apevia has a clear cover so you can see the crappy components they put in there. :D
 
600-750W: Ultra X-Pro 750, Seasonic M12 700, Corsair HX 620W...
