Antec Neopower?

[deveraux]

Hi guys, I'm planning to build this rig over the next couple of months (getting parts from various places):

AMD Athlon 3500+
Asus A8N-SLI
GeForce 6800 GT
SB Audigy 2 ZS
WD 74GB Raptor
Seagate 200GB
SB Audigy 2 ZS

Antec Sonata
Dell 2005FPW

The only part of this system I'm still considering is the PSU. The OCZ Powerstream 520W is kind off pricy and I'd rather not spend that much on it if I don't have to. The other PSU I'm considering is Antec Neopower. However, if you guys really believe that the OCZ is way better than the Neopower, I will go for it since I do like the 5 yr warranty on the OCZ.

Thanks!

I'd say go with the neopower, Antec makes very very good psu's, iff not the best...
The neopower came out as the best in many many tests and reviews, dont let the 18 amps on the 12v fool u, for it has dual 12 volt rails, and with a 100 to 400 watt change, the voltage fluctuated by only 0.1 V...
U wouldnt believe what they hooked up to the poor thing, and it did not budge,....
Plus its a modular psu, so u can use only the cables u need...

Read some reviews and i'm sure you will be convinced

Ok thanks for the advice. Guess I'll go with the Antec then.
