I'm thinking about getting a PSU for the nf4 Ultra-D board and I heard that it takes a native 24-pin PSU. I also see that sometimes people recommend OCZ Powerstream for the board, but isn't the OCZ Powerstream a 20-pin PSU that requires an adapter? On the specs sheet, it says that it's 20-pin for ATX but 24-pin for BTX...so I'm not sure exactly what that means and why it would be different.

That said, would the Neopower 480 be better or the OCZ Powerstream 520? I personally think the Powerstream 520W is better because of the adjustable rails and the fact that its voltage regulation spec is 1-2% whereas the Neopower is 3-5%. Any opinions on this?
 
The Powerstreams have a full 24-pin main, but the extra four pins just slip off for older legacy 20-pin setups.

Depends on what you want... modular interface or no?
 
Oh, I don't care about modular at all. I just want the best stability and I always thought that the Powerstreams were 20-pin, but if it's 24-pin, then I think it might be better.
