Ok, so i've gone over my new budget for my new computer and the PC P&C is a little too expensive for me....so now i need to find an alternative to power a 3500+ winnie, 6800gt, 1gb ram, 2 hard drives, CD-RW and DVD-RW, and i know of a couple that im thinkin of...the 480w NeoPower and the 520w Powerstream...which of these are good and which other ones would u recommend...id like to keep my PSU price under $200...thanks guys
 
I have the Antec NeoPower 480W PSU and it works great. Buy, I would recommend the OCZ ModStream 520 PSU. It's modular, all the cables are sleeved (with some nice sleeving too), it's also very stable, it has 40 more watts of power and it has a Big O' 120mm fan (Which means more flow with less noise, comparing it to the OCZ PowerStream which has 80mm fans).
 
40 more watts of power, that's irrelevant. The Neopower is the best PSU out of the lot. Being a true ATX12V v2.0 PSU, its more future-proof right out of the box.
 
and is it worth it to spend the extra 60 or so bucks to get the neopower sleeved, or will simple cable ties do?? im not THAT big of a neat freak, but if its out of control then i guess id have to go sleeved :p
