    PC Power and Cooling PSU

    Hi All
    Anybody have any experience with these PSU's?
    They are available from a UK supplier now that distribution is via OCZ.

    I know they are raved about as the best in the buisiness but hype can lead you astray.

    Dosent have to be a particular model just some general feedback, albeit I have my eye on a particular model 750 Quad Silencer. So if someone does have that model so much the better.

    Gaming rig: Q6600 @ 3.2 Ghz, 8800 GTX OC BFG, QuadGT, Infiniti 720 watt, 2 GB 6400 Ram Geil Ultra, LianLi A10B case and Dell 2407 Rev A04 Tuniq Tower.

    Sons Rig: E6600 Abit AW9D Max, FSP Epsilon 700 watt, Coolermaster 831 case, 2 Gb Corsair 6400, LG 22 inch WS Monitor, 8800 GTX.

    Thorsson's system
    Dunno about the 750, but their 1kw is possibly the noisiest thing on the planet, and they claim it's quiet.

    Nothing at all clunk

    The guy I am about to build a system for has heard of PC Power and Cooling from whoever and now wants this in his build. Not having had any experience with them I just wanted to check.

    @Thorsson Thanks. I had a feeling that would be the case the small 80mm Adda fan dosent inspire confidence with regards noise on a heavy load.

    Okay time to knock some sense into him and get the Infiniti 720.

    1kW Shootout: Turbo-Cool vs. Silverstone Olympia Makes an interesting comparison.
    The Thermaltake Toughpower CableManagement 1200W (W0133)
    Cooler Master Real Power Pro RS-A00-EMBA 1000W
    or Enermax Galaxy EGA1000EWL 1000W
    are all worth checking
