Hello!

I know other people already asked this, but the answer aren't so clear. So, are the nzxt's psus any good? The 700w modular they have offers a good price, so... yeah. And evga? What you guys think?
 


Which specific model?
What budget?
What are the rest of your components?
both EVGA and NZXT make some good and some bad units. You have to give a specific unit, preferably a link.
 
The NZXT Hale 82 700w isn't very good. It's group regulated, inefficient, doesn't use great caps, has a terrible hold-up time, and isn't good at voltage regulation or ripple suppression. If you want a PSU in the 700w range that is modular look for the EVGA 750w B2: http://pcpartpicker.com/product/JYyFf7/evga-power-supply-110b20750vr it's a good performer for the money and has a 5 year warranty.
