OCZ 520watt POWER or MOD Stream?

As the thread asks... which would be a better buy? I don't know exactly what to look for in a PSU, but I know I want one of these bad boys. But I have no clue on which one would be better suited for my system that I'm building probably this friday.

3700+ SD 939 (getting this for $245 from my neighbor!!!!)
DFI SLI-DR
*Kingston Hyperx pc4000
(still looking for a good case)
Maxtor 16mb 160g
*x850xtpe (temp card going to get a 7800gtx and maybe go dual next year)


The ones with a * next to them I already have.

The OCZ are single railed, if you can afford it I would suggest the SeaSonic one: Link
But generally the SpowerStream 520 should be alright.

Powerstream, Its more powerful than the modstream one ..

i would spend little more bucks for the powerstream due to the rails and all of that ...

powerstream it is =D

Well they are both great; PowerStream has a little more punch but ModStream has modular cables if you care about clean looking system and I have one myself, its awsome.

The Powerstream has superior (independant) regulation and a whole lot more 12V output than the Modstream. No comparison here, if powering a PC is the goal, the Powerstream is vastly superior.

Do 520W PowerStream have adjustable rails like 600W?

They all have that feature, even the discontinued 470w - Topower offered it as an OEM option for the whole P6 line, and OCZ jumped all over it
