I think the best thing to go with would be the corsair, thier psu's are known for their long life, and from what I am hearing and reading now, a large amp single 12v rail is best.

cheers.

High amperage is what you should be shooting for.

Corsair's generally suffer from less capacitor aging.

And yes, forum activity, had to jump all over this! lol

well its where my money has been going - into the sportbike. Awaiting order as we speak.

AMD's bulldozer is a fail so no upgrades for me - albeit I do need a new PSU sometime soon.
