fsp400-60thab

the FSP400-60THAB is available for ~$60CAN

just a few questions:

what does the 60THAB denote?

do you think this could power a 2.4c overclocked, 6800, and a couple case fans fine? (would it limit overclock?)

and most importantly...how loud is it?

THA is the 80mm plain version of the Blue Storm 400w - not sure what the B signifies. It should power that setup, but Prescott overclocking may be limited on this unit.

I do think, however, this unit is a better fit for you:

This is a less fancy version of the new AX450-PN. Similar power capability to the one you chose, but lower price and 120mm fan.

i thought the ATX-### fortron's weren't as good as the FSP/AX ones

It's possibly being phased out now along with the FSP350-60THN now that the new AX450-PN and AX400-PN have arrived. The AX450-PN and its ATX400-PN brother share very similar specs to that one and are almost identical in construction. Essentially you'd still be getting the older FSP400-60THN, except the label will have impressive looking peak values for the 12v rails instead of the more accurate 14A+15A.

The ATX400-PN is the same unit as the AX450-PN. ATX350-PN is the AX400-PN. The only difference is they don't carry the Saga name on them.
