$94 shipped using free fedex shipping and then the $15 mail in makes it $79 for an OCZ ModStream 520.

EDIT: Also on my order I noticed I got fedex 2 day instead of ground, so if you're looking for a new psu this deal could be pretty crucial

modular cables, 3 year warranty, as good I think as the powerstream, others will disagree, rock solid rails, as you can see with my OC in my sig

There is no way this is as good as a PowerStream. +12v rail isn't as stable and lacks the 33amps.

I'm definately not knocking this psu at all. I ordered this psu last night until I cancelled it and bumped up to the PowerStream. I figured if I'm gonna spend $94 for a psu I might as well get the next one up and have a psu I won't hafta upgrade for a few years. Besides I need the extra 5a on the 12v rail.
 
What's the diff between the power and the modstream, the POTs?

I'm gonna guess: the powerstream has exterior POTs, and the modstream has internal... just a guess...

**EDIT**
Okay, checking at the egg the modstream is single fan, not dual, and has 26A on the +12V as opposed to the 33A on the powerstream.
I actually like the modstream better b/c it has detachable wiring! WTF, how come my $200 600watt powerstream doesn't have that? You know... some companies make no sense. A higher-end model that costs much more and has more power loses the conveniency that the lesser model has... STUPID!

That wasn't my point, guy.... my point was that the higher quality ends up losing that detacheable wiring conveniency.
 
Still a pretty expensive PSU..I ran my A64 NC 754 with piece of crap Antec SL350 OCed to 2.5ghz 24/7 for 8 months and nothing went wrong on me....it works like a charm..the PSU came with my case too..
