I tried to find reviews about X7 but not much about it.
Only this.

- 4gb Cosair DDR3
- 1tg, 500gb, 320gb WD HDD

Thanks in advance =)

The only thing you need to know about huntkey is it is one ff the worst PSU brands you can get. I would suggest something else unless you REALLY feel the need to blow up your nice new rig.

Stick with Antec EarthWatts, Corsair, Seasonic as the first big ones to try and get.

OCZ, Cooler Master, and Rosewill to a lesser extent are also decent brands. XFX is in the middle as they have newer PSU's then most, but from everything i have read about them they seem just as good as Antec/Corsair/Seasonic.

Never seen anyone mention them either, so you should probably stay away.

And remember this, as some people just dont get it so it worth mentioning it all the time. A PSU is the most important parts of your PC. Dont skimp on it, as it will almost always come back to bite you in the ass. Sometimes a PSU Dying will and has taken out a whole rig before.

Yeah the review are good but mostly ppl are concern about the brand.
And its kinda hard to make a decision about it.
