OCZ PowerStream?

I also recommend the Enermax Liberty series. I have the 500 and it's solid.
 
I have a Powerstream 520 running in my system and I absolutely love the thing. No problems with it whatsoever, adjustable rails are useful, and the shiny finish on the unit is gorgeous.
 
big bonus with the OCZ over the enermax is the OCZ has EPS12v which will be used on future boards. and the powerstream does have full Active PFC, the dual 80's are quieter than the 2 120's in my case, and as far as rail stability it doesnt get much better......

love my OCZ520PS, rock solid lines and it looks f'n sweet in a case with a window.

the only gripe i can see someone having is it has a single sleeved pci-e power connecter, it will look funky with an sli setup but Im not getting one so its not a big deal to me

The Enermax has one 120 and it's quieter than the two 80's no matter what case you have. And rail stability does get much better... it's called the Enermax Liberty.

The SLI version with the blue LED's has two PCI-e's.
 
yeh i was just refering to my powersupply the 520 :) the 80mm's in the ocz spin very slow and are basically not audible even with my system loaded up ive yet to see them have to spin up. while ill admit a 120 will generally be quieter, i just dont see it getting much quieter .....

and the biggest flux on my rails so far with a
3000venice @2.55ghz and a x850xtpe with 3 hd's

.01 on the 3.3v .02 on the 5.5v and .02 on the 12v. i keep tabs on all my temps and voltages using speedfan. I'd use motherboard monitor but i cant get it to read right on my abit kn8 :(

To answer your question:

Does a bear shit in the woods?



A bit exaggerated, don't you think? The Liberty is nearer to perfect. Even more stable rails and modular to boot. More efficient, quieter and PFC.

Not at all exaggerated. It's a very good supply and is near perfect. The liberty could very well be nearer to perfect. But I wouldn't knock the OCZ off the list just because of a fraction of a volt.
(edit: plus you can change it.)
 
eh i have a powerstream 600 and its kinda loud for me , i would grab the enermax liberty
