i want to replace my Antec 750 psu as the fan is too noisy.i want an objective opinion on what psu should i buy.Price is not a problem.i tend to chose between Corsair and Seasonic.I had a Corsair psu about an year ago that had a horrible clicking noise until the fan started to spin on load(i think it was a TX version).I have a watercooling system(only cpu,problably gpu in the future),a sound card,fan controler conected to psu.Any advice is highly appreciated.Thank you.

so...what is your rig?

Assuming you want the same wattage I would go for this.

YOUR BASKET
1 x Antec High Current Pro 750W Modular '80 Plus Gold' Power Supply £129.95
Total : £139.55 (includes shipping : £8.00).

The OEM on this one is Delta, who are on par (if not better) than Seasonic.

any preference to modular/non modular?

i'd take a look at the super flower psu's if i was you

dragos1977 · 13 Dec 2013 at 19:11

i was asking an opinion on Corsair or Seasonic or any other good psu.. dont want Antec anymore

kefan77 · 13 Dec 2013 at 19:12

Corsair is not PSU OEM, so don't really understand your question.

it's also hard to recommend anything without knowing the rig.

dragos1977 · 13 Dec 2013 at 19:12

And i would prefer full modular.

ChrisD. · 13 Dec 2013 at 19:17

I like Seasonic and Silverstone PSUs. They are always rated very highly in tests. The latest Seasonic's can run the ran in hybrid mode so are very quiet. You've also go Be Quiet.

Seasonic out of those.

Bayk · 13 Dec 2013 at 19:20

what is in your current system? as recommending a psu too big would be a waste

dragos1977 · 13 Dec 2013 at 19:22

I have a 750 antec at the moment but the fan is noisy.

dragos1977 · 13 Dec 2013 at 19:23

only 1 gpu so 750 i think is more than enough.

dragos1977 · 13 Dec 2013 at 19:26

I got the Edifier 530 yesterday from overclockers on 110£ bargain and i am very pleased with the purchase.

Bayk · 13 Dec 2013 at 19:33

can you list the specifics of your system?

dragos1977 · 13 Dec 2013 at 19:40

motherboard:asus p8z77 deluxe
i5-3570k overclocked 4.2ghz
gigabyte 7950
watercooling system
asus xonar d2x soundcard

thel33ter · 13 Dec 2013 at 19:48

For that I'd go for around 600-700W max, unless you're planning on adding another 7950, The superflower ones OC have just added look to be excellent value for money, if you prefer a namebrand you can't go wrong with a corsair HX*** or CS***M.

kefan77 · 13 Dec 2013 at 19:53

this one is a hell of a deal. not modular, but the price is too good.
