Best 700W PSU ~$90? Are Any Of These Any Good?

dragonborn123 · Nov 25, 2013

Just glancing at some name brands and reviews, here are some decently priced PSUs that look like they're good quality:

http://pcpartpicker.com/part/ocz-power-supply-oczzt750w
http://pcpartpicker.com/part/ocz-power-supply-ocz750fty (but I'm uncertain if this is the discontinued model, or the newer release)
http://pcpartpicker.com/part/pc-power--cooling-power-supply-ppcmk2s750
http://pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-power-supply-cmpsu750txv2 (good reviews, but discontinued)
http://pcpartpicker.com/part/antec-power-supply-hcg750
http://pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-power-supply-p1750snlb9

Should I get any of those, or is there a better, cheaper option? My top priorities are to save money and get a decent quality PSU, so please keep those in mind.

Thanks for any assistance, I've been trying to put together my build for a couple weeks, only thing holding me back is my PSU.

iceclock :

Looks like it has great reviews, and obviously its hard to go wrong with SeaSonic. My only problem is that it's maybe a little more expensive than I would like, but this is probably what I'll go with if no one else suggests a good quality PSU that's cheaper.

its actually 109$ currently. where does it say 60?. maybe the price changed. weird.

thats also a very good psu

dragonborn123 · Nov 26, 2013

This is pretty much exactly what I was looking for! Thanks, I just purchased it!

However, one thing that is nagging me is that it's only rated for 40C. From reviews I see that it still gives out its rated power even at 50C, but could that 40C rating be a problem? Any tips on how I can keep my PSU cool?

EDIT: Actually, I'm finding conflicting information. This review says 40C, but all the other reviews that mention temperature rating say 50C. Anyone have any insight, or can confirm it is 50C?
