Oklahoma Wolf said:The OCZ units are already more expensive than I believe they could be, but I definitely agree about the overpricing on the 600w. I have still not completely added that model to my recommendations because of it. Last time I checked, the OCZ 600w up here could be found at most places for around $250, while a corresponding Topower P6 600w unit (except no external pots and shorter warranty) can be had under $160. The prices need to come down IMO.
That said, Seasonic is also priced a little higher than I like to see. In comparing the two, OCZ will have the advantage for features and warranty. Seasonic will have the edge for efficiency, build quality, and silence. When considering PSU's at these price levels however, it also pays to consider the PC P&C 510w models.
