Which Power Supply?

[jrwizbang]

I am buying a new power supply and wanted one that is orange to match the rest of my build. I found this cougar PSU that is normally $100 more than it is right now http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817553004&Tpk=cmx%201000 and I figured that there is a reason that it is so cheap. My other choice would be this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817207016 and I would just paint it partially orange.

All XFX power supplies are made by Seasonic and are quite good. All Cougar power supplies are made by HEC and while some are rated decent they are not as good as the Seasonic models overall. So get the XFX.

Cougar's reputation has historically had a significant knock on it for poor voltage regulation.....not a good thing when over clocking.

XFX has great PSU's.
