Agreed!

If you have the extra few dollars this is the one I would be buying just because I have always had good luck with these suckers!

Since no one said it, No that PSU is junk.

The corsair is good, the Silverstone I don't know about, but they make good PSUs.

here's a helpful rule of thumb that true of all hardware:

rosewill=s**t

that should help you out.

I find that Rosewill is not all bad. When the product is good, its great, but the sames true in the opposite. I find the only thing that I do not like about that PSU is that there is no 6+2 or 8 pin pcie connectors, and Rosewill is not the most prestigous brand. If there is a good reason for that PSU in particular, most people on this forum forget the needs of the poster, then go ahead and get it. If you want it for the pretty lights then do not look twice, the power supply is the main part of your system and should not be based on looks, but the chance it will fry the rest of your system.

Rosewill is on tier-5 ("Do not buy" ) of the PSU listing at http://www.tomswiki.com/page/Tiere [...] gs?t=anon. Since that listing was last updated, however, at least one Rosewill PSU received a "recommended" review at Jonnyguru, so specific models may be ok now. With so many known good choices out there though, I personally would not buy Rosewill. Your call.

If you're on a low low budget, you can take a look at this also.

Tier 3, but a goodie, 36 amps on the 12 rails. BUT, if you do plan to Crossfire in the future, grab that pc power and cooling one mentioned, do not skimp out on the PSU, it's the most vital component in your system.

plus promo code EMCACBCDC

$70 - MIR of $35 = $35 for an SLI cert. 500w quality PSU.

The antec neopower is made by seasonic. I have the actual seasonic version, SS-500ES, which is identical internally, and is only $70 at newegg. Awesome P/S, as all seasonic's are.

I picked up a Antec Trio 650W at the egg for $70 after rebate. don't know if you want to deal with rebates...

Since no one has posted this so far:

@OP:
See:
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forum [...] p?t=108088
for PSU tire listing. I recommend you get a top tire PSU listed there. I would personally go with a Corsair 550VX/520HX or PC Power & Cooling Silencer 610. If on a budget get the Antec Neo Power 500 .
