OCZ StealthXStream OCZ500SXS 500W Power Supply

Comment:
My setup is Antec P182 + gigabyte P35-DS3L mobo. I had trouble installing this unit because of the length of the four pin power cable being so short (square shaped). I looked everywhere in my city for an extension but could not find it. I eventually ended up cutting it, stripping each end and adding some wire i got. Other than that, this PSU has been quite stable and pretty quiet. Good value for price i'd say.EDIT: had to buy 4 pin molex -> SATA connectors to run my new DVD-ROMs This review was modfied by poster @ 01-23-08 09:30 AM

Got one of these since I got a PM and a rebate was on it, but I never did get my rebate haha.For the regular 'street' price you won't get a better PSU. It has quality stable rails and good ampere for something so cheap. This is a solid unit. Now it's not a GameXStream but oh well, you're getting this to save money while not sacrificing too much on quality. You're not getting this for some super gaming SLi system or something.The build is sleek, there is only a 120MM fan for cooling so it's very quiet. The cables are all sleeved to make it streamlined, not modular (i.e. removable) but that's not a big deal for the price once again.Solid product for a quite reasonable price.

I purchased this for a super quiet business computer in a sound insulated Lian Li case to replace an aging Vantec Stealth with noisy 80 mm fans. I'm quite pleased at the silence but would have preferred some kind of tech that let me control the fan on the unit. As always, OCZ support is there for it's customers. I'll be picking up a couple more for my quiet computing needs.
