Okay, so these power supplies are priced very similarly (on ebuyer) and i need an upgraded PSU. I currently have a """800 Watt""" Sumvision power supply that seems to be dying (LED's star to flicker while under heavy load). So i decided that a new PSU would be good. Current GPU is a 6770 but i am planning an upgrade soon so i will need a PSU that will be good. Out of the two above, which is better with build quality. And btw, i know the coolermaster has 4 pcie power connectors compared to 3 but i wont be crossfire-ing or sli-ing any time soon.


Update:


After looking for some, found some on Amazon, links are below, which one would be better?



EVGA 750B2

Coolermaster GM 750

and


XFX 750W XXX

Solution
The Coolermaster is a CWT design with no reviews yet, its probably decent but its also only rated to 40C. The EVGA SuperNova B2 series is a good superflower built unit with good VReg, suppression, and efficiency; but the XFX is built on a slightly better Seasonic platform with slightly better VReg and ripple suppression even if it is slightly less efficient.

If you intend to OC heavily the better VReg of the XFX will serve you well, if money is a bit tight the EVGA will do just as well for a bit less, you might only hit 4.7 GHz instead of 4.8 GHz. The XFX is slightly better, but the EVGA is slightly cheaper so its up to you.

Okay, thank you for the information, but I will probably go for the EVGA just because it is cheaper, and looking at the ampere they put out, they seem to both be able to provide up to 62 Amps at 12V.

Thanks for the info
