Recertified PSU from Egg

[patonb]

Still a Delema...

YhA I cant spell.

The Zalman has a bunch of folks saying it won't run gtx cards, Anyone got a clue.

Anyone got any other suggestions.. I'd really like to keep it modular, as we all know the 900 is a nightmare to wire

quote from me, (refering to zalman 750watt PSU)

i love it. got my q9300 up to 4GHz with it. never had a prob with it. it ran my GTX 260 core 216 and my old 9800GTX and it held up well. it's silent too. and runs cool. zalman makes good stuff.

i will say this now receid psu's is probably one of the only resertified products i would not purchase.

Same bit too risky imo as it means that it has alreacy failed once. They might not of thoroughly tested it and just replaced the obvious problem when there could be 2 or more problems which only come into effect at long term. Ofcourse the warranty will still be valid but still your risking quite a lot.

Basically, Whats the difference between the DA series vs. the ST series?

Odd, Silverstone claims the 750 won't run 2 260's, but the 700 will

Yha, i just litterly order the da700. AND an xfx 260, 216 to match my bfg one. Went with the da700 as its 58A, and the st75F was only 50A plus no 8 pin.

The xfx says it needs 1x6 and 1x8. oddly my bfg is 2x6 pin.

Saddly the card will mainly live its life as a folder.. 219cdn after 30US mir!, but it'll be used.

Edit

Funny, only the xfx site, and people quoting the site claim an 8pin is used. Not 1 pic shows more than 2 x 6 pin.....
