Hi guys anyone got this psu OCZ ZT Series 650W Fully-Modular 80PLUS Bronze
Was thinking of buying but i read some bad customer reviews about fan noise and reliability.

Works great for me. I haven't noticed any undue fan noise myself.

Same for me, I have had a couple of OCZ PSU's in my time and have found them to be quiet, reliable and up to the job.

Thanks guys i have read some bad things about the fan sounding like an hoover under load and psu failing in the first year.

The ZT series are not that old so if they have failed already that is quick.
I also read about it being noisy under load too.

Saying that I have had an OCZ modular for over 3 years and it is still silent and working fine.

With a 4.5 oc I've never heard it ramp up under load. It's not absolutely silent, but it isn't what I'd call noisy.

Bitfenix spectre pro pwm fans on the other hand...

Im deciding between and OCZ or an ANTEC

i didnt realise choosing parts for a build would be so difficult
