Forum CPU & Components : Power Supplies, Cases & Mods [Solved] Help Deciding PSU

Hello, I'm new and i wanted to ask you'r opinion on whats better PSU. The OCZ ModXStream Pro OCZ600MXSP 600W or the COOLER MASTER Silent Pro M600. The reason is because I'm going to buy one but don't know which one to get. Thanks in advance

I don't trust OCZ, and Cooler master is known to have not bad psu's ...

I'd go with Cooler Master ...

hmmm...... I would personally prefer the OCZ out of those two.

why don't you let us know what your pc specs are. what you plan to do in the future with the system and what your budget is for a PSU

I have built alot a computers and used many different brands of PSU. The best ones in my opinion are Corsair. They are very well built, stable, efficient, reasonably priced and above all v. quite. The coolermaster ones are well built and stable but very loud in my experience. The wattage of the unit will depend largely on the selected graphics card. I wouldn't get the PSU until you know which card you are going to be using. Its suprising what a 400-500W PSU can do! I wouldn't go mad on Wattage.

I have a ModXtreme 600w and it's good and would be no problem imo.
However i do agree with obsidian86 the CM Silent Pro line is a little better.
