I have two power supply's and one needs to go. I have an Enermax Liberty ELT620AWT and
a Silverstone ST60F. The Silverstone connectors match up to drives ect.. perfectly but
the Enermax seems like better quality overall. The 20 watt difference between the two
isn't important at this time but steady output and stability overall could be down the road.

Currently, both will work fine with what I am running now but I'm trying to think ahead.
The Silverstone is 4 months newer than the Enermax.

Which one should I keep.

I say keep the Silverstone ST60F for a) it sounds like it working perfectly fine for you and b) I own one and it has been doing just fine running my system for the passed 4 years.

JK,

I have an Enermax 620 in one of my systems and it's a good enough PSU, but I really didn't like the modular cable set that came with it. I called Enermax and they sent me a 720 cabling set to replace it. That made a nicer build...

If your Silverstone is modular, I'd say perhaps go with it. Otherwise keep the Enermax. I think modulars are superior in building a cooler, neater system because you only use the cables you need and the extras don't get in the way...

As a matte of fact the Silverstone is the better quality PSU. Enermax has had there trouble spots but they are still a good PSU.
