    Never heard of it. Judging from google it's just another cheap brand like EZcool etc. Steer clear, go for a nice brand like Seasonic, enermax or corsair.

    The corsair HX620 and Seasonic M12's will both run that system no problem and are very reliable.

    I'd say exactly what Chuckskull said. HX620 has been powering my system near silently for almost a year now

    My siblings HX520 is whisper quiet and that seems to be the consensus on this forum too about the Corsair modular drives especially.

    never buy the no name brands unless you intend to change them every year or so. even tho it says 800w depending on the efficiency it could well output just over 400w if you're lucky
