PSU Advice....

Now im considering either the OCZ 600W StealthXStream Power Supply or the OCZ 550W Fatal1ty Series Power Supply..?
What do you guys think.? The Fatality is modular and pretty but the 600W stealthXstream is closer to a 700W than the stated 600W.

600w, stealth = quiet, no?

Why not the modXstrem 600w its not much more , R1024 is cheapest iv seen.
And seing as OCZ bought PC power and cooling they are bound to incoporate some good features , also they all got fantastic reviews onlline.

I know all this cause im just about to buy one.

And BTW yes the are 600w continuous , so they are more like 650W

Conclusions
Hardware Secrets Golden Award

We loved this power supply. Why? Because it has exactly the same design of two other good high-end power supplies, OCZ GameXstream 700 W and Zalman ZM600-HP, but costs a lot less – only USD 85, on average, in the USA. For the average user this is a terrific buy. This unit not only costs less than competing 600 W products, but you will be also bringing home a 720 W power supply!

In fact OCZ could easily have labelled this product as a 700 W power supply and keep claiming 80% efficiency (during our overload tests we pulled 711 W from it and it kept 80% efficiency).

My point exactly , So its a deal for a 720w PSU ! NICE

Dude don't you have a pcp&c 700w psu or something?

I would go for neither of the above mentioned psus, just add the little extra and get a Corsair Hx620 FTW!

Firstly...OCZ make awesome PSU's...secondly that 600w StealthXstream puts out 72A over four 12v rails The corsair is nice and modular but at the price Im getting it the OCZ psu's are the winners

And yes I already have a 750w silencer quad PC power and cooling unit in my pc....this new PSU is for my GFs pc
