What you guys think about the Forton?

It is good for basic spec compliance but with your budget there may be better alternatives in the ones I suggested you at least look at.

Thanks for the advice bro! Would you say that those 3 are better than the Fortron?

Yes but for different reasons on each. The seasonic is quieter, and more efficent. The Antec has 3% load regulation. And the Enermax has the max spec of 18amps per 12v.

For the particular rig im going for , which would you suggest?

Any will work. I would personally prefer the Antec since it is a killer deal or the Seasonic because it is quiet. I like quiet systems.
