Well you don't NEED 750W, but if you want the better quality unit of the two, I would say the PCP&C.

my 600w xclio bit the dust last week. Tried 2 mobos, 4 different sticks of ram, 2 video cards, and 2 processors. couldnt get video to the monitor or even to post. power is the last thing to check. jonny thanks for the quick reply. any other suggestions for a psu.

well i need to take everything out of the case and try again. hooked the new ultra up and got 1 long beep followed by 2 short beeps. it does it with both graphics cards i tried. this trouble shooting is driving me crazy.

Uh oh... Sounds like a mobo issue if it's giving you a no vid card beep with two different cards. :(

my 2 month old asus p5k-e and a brand new gigabyte are both giving me the beep. maybe the old power supply was nice to bring both boards with it
