I was under the impression that OCZ were the next best and PC P&P were overpriced.

OCZ is crap?

Well I'm not the one to ask but from what I've read the ultra isnt "true SLI".

hmm.. i didnt research that PSU too much, just heard OCZ PSUs were good. I'm considering cancelling it now and getting the PC P&C that I originally had planned. Does anyone have any experience with an OCZ powerstream 520?

edit: Its a powerstream though, w00t, not a mod.

Powerstream is probably top 2 or 3 PSUs out there. And the price shows it. You're fine.

You won't be sorry with the PCP&C.

And the modstream isn't even in the top 10 for performance psus. Definately in the top 3 for value though, I can't deny that. It's a great product for the intended audience.

it's nice but you paid a ton of $$ for it. Personally I woulda gone with a 6600 GT.. the 6800s pCI-e are ridiculously overpriced.
