I thought the Antec 500 series wasn't such a good run.

I thought the Antec 500 series wasn't such a good run.

I would suggest neither.
Antec used to be good, but switched the company they received parts from and now they are that great (esp. the SmartPowers).
Also, Aerocool is not a quality company and the PSU seems like a POS.

Dont go by newegg reviews.
Most people dont know what they are talking about.
You should go by real reviews and if you cant find any reviews for the PSU there is a reason for it.

If you are looking a quality PSU but are on a budget take a look at this thread under the PSU section.
It will also help you learn about PSUs

Hmm, I noticed Enermax isn't listed up there. So Enermax isn't such a great brand?
