Mushin power supply

I noticed Mushkin have some new power supplies like the Mushkin Joule 1000Watt and I'm wanting to know peoples opinions on them?

Would you still buy corsair Antec etc over a Mushkin?

They are really cheap but something tells me to buy a trusted brand.

This speaks volumes. I would stick to Corsair, Antec etc

I thought so and I'm not prepared to risk a high end system on a cheap power supply

Thanks

Well they're not stupidly cheap, and not as bad as CiT/Powercool etc.

Seem to find they're reasonably good, however efficiency under high load could have been a bit better.

Mushkin has a great reputation for Memory, but I would stick to a more well known brand like Corsair, as if the PSU goes, the system goes along it in many cases.

It wouldn't be disastrous to run any system off it at all.
