Which one should I get?

get V2.0

I just checked OCZ.com and it says only the 600W version of that PSU is ATX12V 2.01V

Depends what you're powering and how much your money means to you.

Well, 10 dollars difference is not an issue. However, I want to get the NZXT Lexa case which has blue LED's inside. So I was thinking that the blue PSU would match my case better.

The one that is ATX 1.x spec is discontinued and has 7 less amps on the +12V rail which is where you need it for a current system. So if you must buy OCZ then the one with 33 Amps on the +12 rail is the one I'd take.

The other one would work best with older systems that run mainly from the +5V rail - no P4-12V connector on mobo, no SLI, no PCI Express slots, etc.

I'm a real fan of single-rail PSUs and they both look like no split rail for them.
