Which PSU?

A2Z · 18 May 2006 at 00:56

Which of these would be best, in terms of amps etc, and performance and reliability

Enermax Noisetaker 600W EG701AX-VE(W) SFMA ATX2.0 SLI Compliant PSU
FSP Sparkle FX600-GLN Epsilon 600W ATX2.0 PSU
Hiper HPU-4K580-MK Type R 580W Modular ATX2.2 PSU - Black UV

powering amd64 [email protected], x1800xt o/c, 2gb ram, 3HD etc

please no recommendations of other PSU's, unless they are available for £50 inc del

thanks

i got the modstream for my dad, very decent psu but slightly bigger than anormal psu so case size might be an issue if it has a special bay for a psu. the tagan is also excellent with rock solid voltages but the 80mm fans might not be quiet enough for you even though they are pretty quiet. either of these will suit you well.

Definatly the Tagan although I'd go for the modular 430W ( similar price ) which is an excellent PSU ( powers my 3800+/X1800XT rig without a problem).

Enermax Noisetaker 600W EG701AX-VE(W) SFMA ATX2.0 SLI Compliant PSU

i dont really mind about noise, more interested in performance..sparkle seems to be the best..i think?

marginally i would have thought although the noisetaker is excellent to
