New Power supply

I am now looking for a third power supply. My first one emits a buzzing noise under load, second is rebooting under load. Both Hiper 730W, first was the non-modular, second was the modular version. This is carrying on from

I am now looking for a new power supply and i am staying away from hiper. My spec is in my signature, 700W+ for future proofing, i am looking for raid 5 setup in the near future. Any suggestions would help, OCZ, Corsair, Enermax?

I'd go with a Corsair 620w, they have proved that it can cope with quad core, SLi'd 8800 series cards (although perhaps not 8800GTXs if that is an issue) and several hard drives as well as watercooling just fine.

Added to the list

What are peoples views on the 650 enermax infiniti?

cant say anything for the infiniti but I have a noisetaker here and its been pretty reliable for past couple of years.

I had to buy a new PSU last week as a Hiper 580w modular just went out on me.
I took the advice here on the Corsair 620w.
Far from the cheapest PSU you'll ever buy, but it is a quality piece of kit and does its job extremely well.

Yeah, i had heard good things about Hiper, but i certainly wont be buying another one now
