Hey ppl,
Can someone who makes the best Power Supplys or some good makers of PSUs plz.
I hear some ppl saying Enermax are good, some ppl saying they are sh1t.
What about the others? Thermaltake? They seem to be considerably cheaper...

I think most people here would say Antec. I have a Antec Truepower 380W SF (single fan).

Fortron is also pretty good, I had one in my previous system.

Maybe Zippy, who reportedly makes most of the PC P&C units for them.

In the mainstream, my vote goes to Antec for widespread availability and actual customer support, plus a 3-year warranty and very good quality. My work fleet has about 25 Antec PSUs now, and I picked them because we want to get a 4-5 year lifespan out of these systems. More to come next fiscal year (almost there!) :cool:

PC Power and Cooling are probably the best but most expensive,cheaper price wise like Antec,Sparkle,Enermax,Enhance etc are all worth looking at,lucky for us there`s lots of good quality brands available .

Newegg has some redundant ones... those would be the BEST but they will cost a hell a lot more. They have 2 PSU's together in one, so if you fails, the other takes over and you can get a replacement back in within that time.

I use PC Power and Cooling exclusively. Nothing else is as good and I tried them all.

Antec is the most well-rounded of all the PSU's. Great price/performance, availablity, warranty and support, noise suppression. But for the absolute best, I will say PCPower & Cooling.

PC Power Cooling is THE best, for most people Enermax, Antec and Fortron are very well made power supplies

Deer Power Supply............... BEST. PSU. EVAR.




:p







Actually, Deer PSU have been known to explode in their boxes before they've even been sold.

PC Power and Cooling is the top notch, I love my Antec 400w though.
