The new Truepower's rock. Rock solid rails with very good efficiency. I have the Antec TP-750 and it out performs my Corsair 750-TX. her's the article that swayed me to try the new Antec's.

And here is a article with test done at twice Johnny's Temps.

And the 850 version of the CM Silent Pro.

Honestly, they both look like good picks, so I vote to get the extra 50 Watts for $5.

I've had the 700W Silent Pro & I loved it. jonnyguru gives it great ratings as well.
