I need a good quality 750W or 850W power supply.
I do not know how to choose it. Could anyone give me some suggestion?
Thanks so much.
 
read the [H] psu reviews to get an idea of what the better psu brands are.
 
Corsair TX 750W or BFG ES 800W, unless you're looking for a modular PSU.
 
Since I am new for power supply, i am wondering for 750W, is it reasonable if the 750W power supply price range is between $190 to $210? I checked newegg, some power supplies' price are between $160 to $180. Thank you.
 
Yes, that can be the price range, but you can often find them lower priced on sale.

What sort of system are you building that you think you need a 750-800w PSU?
 
The Corsair TX750 can be found for around $100 after rebates quite often, so it isn't at all necessary to spend $200 on a quality 750W unit if you don't want to.
 
Here is my spec.

ASUS P5Q Pro LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Kentsfield 2.4GHz 2 x 4MB L2 Cache LGA 775 Quad-Core Processor
3GB2 Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 800MHz - 4 DIMMs
500GB4 - 7200RPM, SATA 3.0Gb/s, 16MB Cache
EVGA 512-P3-N873-AR GeForce 9800 GTX+ 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card

I consider to pair up my graphic card 9800GTX. I want to upgrade my power supply, so I need some suggestions. Thank you.
 
You could make do with a quality 450W or 500W PSU, even using SLI. However, given the low price of the Corsair TX750, I'm going to reiterate my recommendation of that unit. You could also go for something less powerful, like the HX520, HX620, VX550, or TX650.

Buy.com and provantage.com have the TX750 for around $100 with FS at buy.com. I bought my TX750 from provantage recently, its a great 750W psu especially for around a $100.
