OCZ Fatal1ty Series Power Supply - 550-Watt, PCI-Express, SATA, ATX

Comment:
Purchased tomatch the red lighting in the Vulcan case. Enhances the look of Blk-Red. Clean install - cables stiff to route behind case but manageable. Driving a X6 1055T and 5750 with 3 drives and a burner without issue.

First time using modular PSU. Works great. Looks and feel high quality. No issues with OC-ing both the i5-760 and GTX 460.

Comment:
This power supply looks and feels like a high quality unit and based on the 3 year warranty offered by OCZ, it is. It's extremely quiet which is what I was looking for in my HTPC. It's 25A rating is very good for a 550W power supply. Exceptional value at regular price, but a real steal when on sale with a MIR.

Comment:
This supply has been performing very well so far. I discovered it was slightly bigger than the one previously in this case. The case for some reason had a few tabs that prevented installation of an even slightly larger power supply than its original. Two minutes with a dremel tool and the problem was solved.The little bag to hold the extra cables is a nice touch. I was always losing them before.

Get this PSU when its on sale and when it also comes with a MIR. Can't beat the value of one of these things. For a modular, its a steal.

Comment:
got this for $35 bucks with MIRPSU is very quietbut it seems to be a BIT bigger than the standard size, or is it just my case?replaced my old 350W PSU. Runs pretty well with a 9800gt

Got this on sale for $40 with a $20 mail-in rebate on top. It's a steal for that price. 80 Plus efficient, modular, big 140mm fan and the thing runs fairly quietly at least on low loads (haven't really pushed it yet).

I got this on the extreme deal of the day for 20 after MIR. Definitely a good purchase, but i never considered was going in my upgrade for a friend. It worked in the end. GTX 460 + AMD 9550. Nothing higher though.Comes with a nice case for the extra modular cables too ;D

I got this PSU on the Extreme Deal of the Day a few weeks back, for a REALLY low price, and although I haven't used the PC, that it's mounted in, very much, it seems like a pretty decent little PSU.Good things:- Cheap.- Reasonably quiet, or at least quieter than the 700W OCZ that was previously in that PC.- Modular cabling, which makes it easier to make sure you get better airflow in the case.- Enough power for a modest system, and in my case, plenty of power for an older system.- Warrantied by a company that backs up their products.Bad, or not so good things:- Only a 3yr. warranty- Probably not enough power, or appropriate cables, for a newer, reasonably powerful system.

Comment:
I bought this PSU for around 25 dollars after tax and it was easy to install and got the job done. No complaints at all. Nice cable management and came with a nice carrying case for the unused cables. I would recommend it for the cheap price that I purchased it at.

Comment:
Used this on a i5 + 5770 build and it does the job just fine. It looks great in a cm scout and the fact that it is modular is great. My only problems with this PSU is that the cables are stiff (not that big of a deal) and it is pretty loud for my standards. If you do not care about the sound of it, then I would recommend this PSU.

Comment:
Overall satisified with this for the price. This will be my first modular PSU and I'm looking forward to having less clutter in my case.

Comment:
Pretty good PSUAs long as you're not using a high end newest video card this should serve you fine.It's 80+ Certified too so it's fairly efficient.The CPU power cable was too short for my case. The PSU is bottom mounted so the cable wasn't long enough for me to route it around the back of the case to plug into the CPU power slot on the mobo.

Recieved this a about a hour ago after a long wait but so far it defenitly seems to have been worth it. I have this mounted in the bottom of a NZXT Vulcan wich seems silly but looks quite good, iluminating the ground under the case aswell as behind it. Noticed imeadtly how much quieter it was compared to my old psu. Whould buy again even if you have to wait.

Comment:
Very excellent power supply for the price I got it at, onsale at 80$. All peripheral power cables are modular, leaving the 24 pin and 4/8 pin connected. This PS runs very quiet on my basic build. Has a built in RED LED fan, however, does not affect the performance of the PS. Have not had a power issue with it yet.

Comment:
Replaced an underpowered PS with this one when on sale. The fan is virtually silent as it spins slowly but seems effective. Comes with a full set of modular cables for all sorts of devices. Connected a GTS-250 video card and running stable. Red glowing LED adds catchy touch.

Comment:
I got this mainly because I've had good success with the 600W modstream, and I wanted a red LED fan for my next build. (cosmetics)I dunno if I got the high speed version, but the fan is WAY WAY too LOUD. Compared to my 600W, which is silent, this is easily the loudest fan in my case, and very noticable.Mabye they changed the fan to a faster model to outset heat issues, but I'm dissapointed. It doesnt "need" to spin anywhere near that fast as the P.S. doesnt even begin to creep above ambient temps.I'm not sure if it is a deliberate design decision, but it is a very poor one, and makes this P.S. too annoying for me to use.

Awesome power supply for the money. The modular cables make for a clean install. No bundle of unused wires at the bottom of the case. The thing doesn't makke a sound! Recommend for anyone looking for a supply for under 100 bucks.

Seriously the best power supply for the price ! I replace an Old PSU with this one, and it's CRAZY how a good power supply can stabilize a rig when you need power while OC !!! i recommend it ! NOTE : it's in fact a 600W PSU, not a 550 !!!
