Did it read it right?
Only dual 6-pin pci-e connectors for a 1010W?

Edit: Quad 6-pin according to OCZ, but still quite lacking for a PSU at this power.

that PSU sucks as far as i can tell,
might as well buy a good quality 750w instead
what system are you gonna use it in?

the one in your sig?

and what is you budget?

brandonwh64 · Dec 16, 2009, 08:45 PM

Well the reason i wanted that one was because it was a 1K and under 100$ I want a good dependable PSU (Which i have one but its too small). The power supply im running now is a Ultra LSP 650W and it makes frying noises during heavy load (just started about 4 days ago). I did have a NICE enermax modular 500W but its starting to get too small for my needs (system in sig + overclocking).

(FIH) The Don · Dec 16, 2009, 08:46 PM

what is your budget dude

Zubasa · Dec 16, 2009, 08:46 PM

Isn't the Silencer 750W and Corsair TX750 around $100?

brandonwh64 · Dec 16, 2009, 08:48 PM

Well that 1K with shipping is 67$ and thats a good price so something along the lines of 70-90$

Well a good 750W can rip a crappy 1000W into bloody shreds

brandonwh64 · Dec 16, 2009, 08:51 PM

hmm ill have to check anandtech or hardforums for maybe a used one?

(FIH) The Don · Dec 16, 2009, 08:53 PM

i would definatly do that instead, you'll be much much happier with a used quality 700+ psu than some random crappy 1kw psu, i promise you that

brandonwh64 · Dec 16, 2009, 08:54 PM

But its OCZ i thought they make good PSUs?

are these prices for real?

(FIH) The Don · Dec 16, 2009, 08:56 PM

yeah but still, i would still go for used one, sometimes you get lucky

brandonwh64 · Dec 16, 2009, 08:57 PM

OK i dont understand, if they are good then why should i take a risk of getting a used one? it comes with a one year warranty. by that time i would probly buy a better one.

YES smashed they are recertified

brandonwh64 · Dec 16, 2009, 09:01 PM

Im leaning towards it because i looked up some reviews and they seem good but im wondering why don thinks it sucks? its got good +12v amps with quad 12V rails and enough connectors with alot of good features like active PFC and stuff

mlee49 · Dec 16, 2009, 09:02 PM

Nice setup Binge. Looks good.

Did you add any additional fans to the case?

There are fans up top. The case has amazing air-flow.

brandonwh64 · Dec 16, 2009, 09:04 PM

That is a GREAT setup binge!

so binge what do you think about getting that PSU for that price?

http://www.svc.com/ocz1010gxssli-b.html

(FIH) The Don · Dec 16, 2009, 09:05 PM

maybe its just me, but i just think that a 1kw psu for around 50$ is not good, because it might just have like 700w to do with when it all comes down if you know

I insist that you consider a better PSU. Something to stand the test of time. Quality of PSU does affect overclocking, and longevity of system parts. A bad PSU can cause harm.
