Hey Guys!

 

The build is almost complete and all i need to do is pick up 2 730 SSDs and do my leak test. It is about midnight now and its time for me to hit the hay, so I leave you with a slight tease :)

Well the PSU just died -.- Can anyone give me some recommendations for a new one? I'm kinda digging the new Seasonic 1200W platinum.

Damn, that sucks :( I went through the same debate with my self when I got my XFX 1250W 80+gold PSU. If it were me i would go with the Seasonic 1250W 80+ gold and have the extra 50 watts to play around with in the future then settle with the Platinum rating of a 1200 watt PSU.

Yeah, it comes with a 7 year warranty as well. It really just comes down to do you want a Flextronics branded PSU or a Seasonic PSU? Both companies make exceptional PSU's that will last a very long time. I belive the only PSU that has a longer warranty then both of those PSU's is the EVGA 1500W PSU, which has a 10 year warranty.

All EVGA gold or platinum rated psu's have a ten year warranty.

Yeah, I was not quit sure if the 1500w EVGA PSU was the only one with a 10 year warranty or if the whole series has the 10 year warranty. The 1500W is the one one I have worked with, out of EVGA branded PSU's.
