Right now I am using an antec truepower 650w. The old model. Ever since putting my second BFG 9800gtx+ oc 1gb 65nm card in(i run 2 in sli), I've been getting random lockups. Its probably because the power supply shares 1 19amp rail for everything that isn't the motherboard and cpu. My computers specs are:
Motherboard: Gigabyte ex58-ud5
Processor: Intel i7 920 2.66ghz
video cards: 2x bfg 9800gtx+ oc 1gb 65nm in SLI
ram: 6gb
Soundcard: Xonar Essence xts
Hard drives: 2 cavier green 500gb
Both of those power supplies are in my price range, and I like that they have a single rail so I don't have to worry about bridging problems, or just overloading 1 rail while having extra power on a separate rail. I know corsair is supposed to be one of the best psu companies and that particular coolermaster has been reviewed decently. In the future, I may buy two gtx 280 card to replace the 9800's. I also would like to do a reasonable overclock on my cpu when I get a better heatsink. Would the corsair be enough for that? If not, then what do you think about the coolermaster? Would it be any good?
I would appreciate any insight or opinions you have.
edit: alternative suggestions are also welcome
