Help with PSU

Hitlist · 29 Oct 2011 at 18:01

Hey i need a new PSU to power a i52500k with two 570 sli maby 580's, i was looking at

OCZ ZX Series 850W '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply
or the
Corsair Professional Series Gold AX850 Power Supply Unit

Now i know nothing about PSU apart from not to go cheap, so help would be nice

thanks
Aaron

I have a similar pc like yours.
I got the Corsair Professional Series AX1200 High Performance 1200W Modular '80 Plus Gold' Power Supply. Died on me the second time i turned on the pc. Bought the Cooler Master Cooler Master Silent Pro Modular 1200W Power Supply, all well until now.

Another good option is the Lepa:
