Look at my sig for what im running. I just need a GOOD psu for my new DFI mobo. I dont have any price limits, but the PSU you recommend needs to be available in Australia.
PSU for my new DFI LanParty nF4 Ultra D
- Thread starter kwarkers
- Start date
I'd suggest a Seasonic S12 500 or 600 watt unit and if those are not avi a 450watt Plus FSP/Sparkle PSU would be my next suggestion.
Tom's Hardware
Link that will establish reliability.
Get a 400W PSU or higher. Your video card will draw a lot of wattage, especially as some gamers use duals; then up to 600W become a reality.

Fortron personally, always HQ and usually overlooked imo and antec truepowers are overated. And great article which proves my points
Yeah I've already checked out that Tom's hardware thing, but i cant find the top performing ps's in Aust...

Avoid Antec
You have Enermax and ePower in Australia, and that could be choices.
I have a Vantec Stealth 520W and I like it, but my next PSU will be a Seasonic 12. But what works here may not be workable there.
If you have any forums in Australia, that would be a better resource to check into.
All we can do is recommend. The final choice is yours. Good hunting.

After checking out the Enermax range, im now considering http://www.enermax.com.tw/english/product_Display1.asp?PrID=4
Let me know if you've had any bad experiances with Enermax.

Now, i bought this PSU like a year ago, chill innovative 510W PSU, it has active PFC and has nice round cables, and a really low noice 120mm fan, the power data is: +5v=45A +12v=25A +3.3V=33A +5Vsb=2A , i think thats good data. And one of the best thing, was, it was like 2 times cheaper than any other PSU claimed to be able to that data 
Hmm i was recommended recently to go for dual rail 12v with a total of at least 35A whilst im using the nF4 chipset. What chipset are you running in that system???

1. PC Power & Cooling - If you don't know who they are, you don't know anything about PC PSUs.
2. Seasonic - where companies have to have data centers deployed in places and countries where electricity is expensive, Seasonic is there. 25 year old company.
3. Zippy/EMACS - Found in servers everwhere.
4. Fortron - The Original. Often rebranded.
5. Coolermaster
6. Channel Well Tech & Co (Antec & XClio rebrands these)
7. Enermax

He's right about that and his info carries a lot of weight here. But its really what you feel comfortable with.
Seasonic SLI
Seasonic ATX
These prices are very competitive and maybe after conversion you might think so. Good hunting.

I'm using the Seasonic S12 500 with this board. I haven't had any issues with it, and it's quiet.

Money no object....
PC P&C. They ship worldwide and are in my book, the best makers of PSU's anywhere.

I just ordered an Antec TruePower 2.0 550W to use with my 7800GTX. Both have already shipped and after reading this thread I'm a little nervous. I have no previous experience with Antec, I hope I made a good choice.
Oooh Antec True Power, hmm I've had a bad experiance with Antec. Plus I've read WAY too many threads about how bad Antec are. But hey, you (BGuardian75), might be one of the lucky ones
my tagan 480w u22 works just as well as any other upper echelon units, for that the parts are similar, if not, the same as ocz.
