I need a new PSU and there is one on sale at newegg (Link below). I know corsair is the way to go with a new PSU but want to be sure that this model would come recommended, even though I'm fairly certain it does. Let me know what you think and reassure me if you would. Thanks.

12v@52A! whoa.
I'm thinking of getting this one too although would be nicer if it was modular.

It's a good unit. OEM is supposedly CWT, which is well known for their quality builds. Very nicely sleeved, good ammounts of power, silent. I used to have one of these units before my Hiper. My only problem was at factory the 12V rail was set a little low, about 12.06-12.09V. Which caused some less than personally statisfactory drops when under load. I had recorded drops up to 11.89V on the 12v rail when under full load of FUR benchmark + SuperPi runs. However Seasonic/Corsair probably have addressed this issue by now.
A good review from DriverHeaven.net of this unit can be found here (http://www.driverheaven.net/reviews/Corsair_TX650W/index.php)
Buy.com usually has good deals on Corsair PSU's as well.
