• Gold rated / high efficiency
• Better voltage regulation
• Better ripple/noise supression
• Quiet/fanless at low draw
• 7 Year Warranty
• Better quality components inside
• Fully modular (not sure if GS800 is though)

Visit jonnyguru.com to learn more about PSU's. A PSU is also one of those components you can spend time researching on (instead of slapping the first thing that looks good in to your PC).

The GS800 is good, but it's designed for gamers who can't (or don't want to) shell out on a better PSU. I suppose the blue fan is also appealing, but you also have to look at the guts of a PSU. That's what makes it stand out.

If you're not interested in Corsair, I think Antec has the equivalents.

What I'm really saying is you can put some more thought in to your PSU choice.

Hope this helped you. Good luck!

Spot on polygon, alot of people tend to overlook a decent psu, This will be my next psu when upgrading "Antec 1000W HCP 80 PLUS Platinum Certified PSU", not necessary now as i'm not sli'ing but would love to in time to come.

The GS power supplies received good review. But I'd take a higher certified PSU in the future.

@abs1: Looks like an awesome product!
