Cons: Hard to say,came with faulty fan control.Still going through Support,The sent me a 700 watt replacement unit which was used and DOA.I had to pay for $18.00 shipping on the first unit to RMA it.
Pros: Good warranty support,The 5 stars are for the guys in OCZ support.They are trying to help.I don't actually have any experience with a working unit,it arrived with a faulty fan control unit and was quite loud. Comment:
"This item is warranted by the product manufacturer only."You know you are in trouble when you see this.If you get one and it's not quiet it's got a faulty fan control-contact OCZ and RMA it.What I got back from them the first time was a used 700 watt unit that was DOA.They payed for shipping on the second unit.I payed enough through purchase price and shipping of faulty unit that I could have bought a better power supply to start with.Next time I'm going to spend the extra money and get one with NCIX RMA support.As it stands I may end up with another used pre-broken but repaired Power Supply when I payed good money for a new one three months ago and still have nothing.My old Power Supply that this was to replace is still going strong.It's a OCZ 520 watt Mod Stream,very happy with it after two years.I just wanted a shiny new one to go with a new video card. |

Cons: Mesh is a little annoying, NOT ENOUGH SATA CABLES!
Pros: Good quality, long cables, dual PCI-E with extra two pins, fairly quiet, black finish is nice. Comment:
It's a shame I'll have to get rid of this power supply once I want to get more hard drives. Other than the lack of SATA connections, I haven't had any issues with this PSU. I recommend this power supply to anyone who doesn't need more than two hard drives and an optical drive.It goes great with my NZXT Gamma! |

Pros: It worksNot expensive Comment:
Its a good Powersupply. The only problem I had with it is the 8 pin connector was almost too short. Other than that I have had no problems with it. It does its job. |

Cons: Haven't found any
Pros: Silent, Price, Coolness Comment:
Replaced my manufacturers PSU with this. It is much quieter than the previous supply. It looks very sleek, I have only to HDD so the number of cables included doesn't affect me like some other customers mentioned. Overall after using it 3 months I am still as happy as when I bought it. |

Cons: Needs longer cables
Pros: Provides quite efficient energy Comment:
This is a very good PSU that has provided clean and efficient power to my computer for over a year now. The only negative I could think of would be the length of the cables, which need to be longer. |

Cons: Cables not long enoughonly 3 sata connectors
Pros: Really silentcables are sleeved Comment:
I'm happy with this PSU, I would prefer is the PSU cables are longer, it would help with the cable management. It only have 3 sata connectors but I don't don't use more than that. The cables are sleeved but nor all the ways and not tight enough. It's really silent, can't hear it at all. This review was modfied by poster @ 07-09-09 02:55 PM |

Cons: Have not experienced any yet.
Pros: Excellent fan with decent noise levels. Definitely for a Gaming type PC. Comment:
This Power supply has served me very well over the past Year and is about to be switched to my new CPU. Great power supply with decent noise levels. Lots of power for most average gaming PC's. |

Cons: Cables can be a bit short.
Pros: Inexpensive, plenty of connectors, silent, sleeved cables and solid/stable. Comment:
The psu has been solid nothing wrong with it, silent can't even hear it. The cables can be a bit short for mid tower cases. I had a bit of trouble with my CM690 and this psu but it works out if you make some adjustments. |

Cons: -none so far
Pros: -quiet fan-cable length and number of cables are just right-4pin molex handle Comment:
Working well so far with my system and it was inexpensive. Number of connectors was just right for me since I don't have many optical drives and hard drives. Not hard to do cable management. Cable length was also OK for my case. I like what they did to the 4pin molex for easier unplugging. |

Cons: length of 2x4 cpu pin cable, PRICE
Pros: silent, stable volts, same amps as 700watt version Comment:
Power Supplies have gone throught the roof in the past several months, these could have been picked up for 65 bucks earlier, and its not just the dollar.Anyways, a great power supply. Actually prefer the non-led's compared to the led's. Used in a Storm Sniper case, the 2x4 pins barley reached the top of the motherboard, although some cases include extensions (not the storm sniper).This has the same amp ratings as the 700 watt version, just fewer connectors. Runs perfectly silent and is currently powering a 790X, X2 720, 4870 setup...no issues. |

Cons: -somewhat of a high pitched noise-loudest thing in my case-very short lengthed wires
Pros: Powers my systemcheap 600W Comment:
It powers my system fine and it was quite cheap. Major downside is the wire length, i will probably end up buying an new psu soon, once i get new gfx cards. Going to probably need the extra power, and i want my antec 900 to look nice and tidy. |

Cons: None
Pros: Quiet, efficient, and powerful Comment:
I bought this for a workstation I built recently for my father. It handles a 9800GTX+ and Q6600 with plenty of overhead. |

Cons: mine has a high pitched noise (which prolly means its defective) and i have to return it this week so if you buy this listen carefully
Pros: It is a solid psu and isnt noisy (unless you have my problem) Comment:
this power suply would have no problem being rated at 650watts because it handles 2 4870 but the high pitched noies sounds dangerous. |

Cons: none
Pros: Quiet, stable & tons of connectors Comment:
Bought this for my brother who's PSU's main fan bearings seized up. This PSU is SUPER quiet and even looks badass. It's only 600W but 600W running as stable as this prevents stutters and spikes, eliminating most system errors. OCZ even included a small pack of black anodized screws to mount the unit which I thought was pretty sweet. Running an nVidia 9600GT, AMD64x2 +4400, 1.5GB DDR2 Ram, 2 250GB HDs, SB Live! 5.1 soundcard on a basic MSI mobo. I'll definately pick up another one if my 500W goes down. |

Cons: None
Pros: Price / power ratio Comment:
I bought this PS at ncix for $79.99 C$, and there was a mail-in rebate of 25 C$ associated to it, which brings the price down even more. After 11 weeks, the rebate check is not yet arrived but the rebate web site states that the check is mailed 2 days ago, so I will receive it soon.Given that I use this PS with Gigabyte GA-M78SM-S2H motherboard and its integrated graphics, 600W is definitely a complete overkill. But given the price and possible future computer upgrades, I am very satisfied. |

Cons: none
Pros: Delivers enough power to a Q6600 and 8600GT, quiet Comment:
This is a good value PSU for normal builds. The noise can't really be heard in my cm690 and it runs great. This is not recommended for builds which require a lot of power. |

Cons: Could be quieter
Pros: WattageRelatively silent120mm fanSleeved wiresWatt/Price ratio Comment:
Bought this psu for my old P4, that couldn't take the video card upgrade I made. Produce way enough power and literally gave a new life to my old computer. I also choose this one because it had everything i needed for my old comp, and will also be usable in my next machine. |

Cons: The 20+4 pin ATX power jack is a bit tricky to plug. When the two parts are assembled, they won't hold each other securely by themselves until plugged into the motherboard.
Pros: Probably the best-valued 600W power supply. 80% efficiency, 120 mm fan, wires wrapped with mesh covers, can do 700W according to some online reviews Comment:
It is very quiet, in contrast to someone's experience (having this to be loud). The big fan helps the air flow in the case and improves the cooling. |

Cons: -Not modular cables, but that wasnt a surprise since it's not listed. I think all PSU's should have modular cables.
Pros: -Lots of Amps on the 12V rail.-Many connectors for all of your internal components-was on sale for $79.99 three weeks ago with no rebate. Comment:
I am not sure why some people think this PSU is super noisy, I have it in the Silverstone Sugo mATX case for an HTPC and it is basically silent. The Silverstone fans make more noise than this thing and they are basically quiet as well. Great Power, efficient, A+ |

Cons: Wires are a BIT short, but nothing terrible.
Pros: Great PSU, handles everything I use with ease! Comment:
This is a great PSU, powers my E4500, 3 hard drives, 1 DVD drive, AND 9600GT with ease. Would buy again. |
Great budget power supply. Is very quiet and looks sleek. Currently powering a coworkers computer: e5200, 4870, 1 HD, 1 optical. Plenty of power for any single gpu build.
