help me choose a PSU

[Iron Hawk]

Im looking for a new PSU, preferably one with a somewhat recognizable name. Im looking for one that is atleast 400watts and has Active PFC. If it has those little pots inside to adjust the voltage that would be great. I am going to be watercooling this drive, so i dont really mind if its noisy, just as long as it is a good performer.

Thanks,

I have an Antec and I like it very much, it doesnt have voltage regulators though. Enermax is good goto here (http://www.xpcgear.com/powersupply.html)

Active PFC? The only thing I know of that you'd need that for is an EPS12V system or in Europe (although the EU says only PFC is needed, not necessarily active PFC).

Well i guess its not a big requirement, i thoguht that the active PFC handled the power more purely by using extra capacitors or something.

I don't think you can go wrong with either Antec or Enermax. My prefrence is split 50/50. I'll read more details before i buy another psu.

I would say go with the Antec (that's coming from someone who owns an Enermax, btw)

I take it you have some complaints about your enermax, please tell me what you like and dislike about it. thanks
