Afternoon,

A couple of weeks ago, my OCZ ZX 850watt PSU, decided to start playing up, then a fews days later it packed up supplying power to Molex power cables..

Thanks to overclockers, i found out that OCZ went into administration at the end of last year, so they couldnt honor the warranty on my PSU, as it is 19ish months old, on a 5 year warranty.. A message to OCZ Technology Group, as they are now know, confirmed the worst, due to mine being a Discontinued product, they wont be honoring the warranty either :(

So... what im wanting to find out, is basing this on experience, who is a good manufacture to deal with? I've got Seasonic and EVGA in mind...

I know OverClockers do there best to keep the consumer happy which is why i buy from you :)
 
There are lots of good brands out there (not all brands manufacture their own PSUs) ... Corsair, be quiet, Antec, Seasonic, Enermax, EVGA, Superflower, SilverStone, etc. Corsair RMA is generally considered among the very best in the world (although their RMA depot is in Netherlands, but they may accept the shipping costs).
 
Copyed from a post i made the other month, saves me having to think to hard at the time in the morning lmao.
The only item i need to account for will be a second 7950, as im thinking of crossfiring them in a bid to raise my FPS as i run eyefinity.

Fractal Design XL Case
Intel Core i5-3570k @4.0ghz
Gigabyte Z77X-UP4 mobo

OCZ Gold 850watt PSU

the general consensus seems to be get something seasonic made, although superflower made PSUs are gaining popularity here too
