Hi. I'm looking at purchasing a K8N Neo 4 mobo and I can't seem to find a power supply I like that fits the -5v on pin 20 requirement. Here are the system specs.

K8N w/ AMD 64 3800+
2 - BFG 6800 Ultras
2 - SATA 200GB Hard Drives
2 - Optical Drives
+ Random lights

My case has a window so I want a decent looking PSU but my biggest requirement is that it's modular and wont clash with my black case/red light theme. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.
 
That's a nice PSU and I'll probably look back to it but does anyone know of one that is modular and fit the criteria? I believe that my thinking of modular would be that you plug cords into the PSU so you only have the cords you need. I maybe wrong but that's the kinda thing I'm looking for.
 
The OCZ brand power supplies carry the -5v rail too, antecs do not. For something like what you have listed i'd go with a PCP&C or a OCZ Powerstream 600. You can get a OCZ Modstream too, not quite as good, but should do the job and its modular. Avoid the Neopower, its confirmed not to have the -5v.

I don't think the Powerstream 600W has the -5V line.
 
according the manufator specs it has a -5V@.5A's, its because of the 20+4 approach OCZ takes on there PSU's, it conforms to the 20 pin standard, which has that -5V's, and then they "piggyback" the extra 4 pins to get to 24 pins instead of using an adapter.

That modular PCP&C is sweet dude.
