Corsair CX 600W V2 ATX2.2 80 PLUS® Power Supply

or

OCZ StealthXStream2 600w Silent ATX2 Power Supply 80PLUS

Its really about the name they both do what i need them to do, which name is likely to be best? They both have 25amps on the 12v rail, so will power a 560GTX.

Choose the cheapest.

I would do the OCZ - http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/OCZ-StealthXStream-2-600-W-Power-Supply-Review/1058

But I could argue the reason why you should spend £5 more for this XFX - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-003-XF&groupid=701&catid=123&subcat=1497

If the OCZ is costing you £60 that is? If its less then go for it.

25amps on the 12v rails is right for a 560GTX isnt it?

EDIT : No they are both £50 where i see them. And oh christ, i spelt choice wrong.

Bargain to be honest.

I'd probably choose Corsair out of loyalty, but really I think it makes no difference.

I would do the same to be honest.
