I need to buy a new PSU for my coming DFI SLI-D, by now I'll run it with only 1 6800GT but perhaps in 2 months i'll add another 6800GT.

Which of this ones would you choose:

OCZ PowerStream - 520w
Power: 520W
Active PFC: Yes
+3.3V: 28 A
+5V : 40 A
+12V: 33 A
Molex 4 pines: 6 unidades
Molex 4 pines: 2 unidades (con estabilizador de tensión y reductor de EMI, para HD y VGA)
Standart: ATX 2.0, BTX, EPS12V y PCI-Express
Price: 144€

Xaser Silent Purepower™ 680W - Color Black
Power: 680 W
PFC Active: Yes, 0'98
+3.3V: 28 A
+5V: 50 A
+12V-1: 15 A
+12V-2: 15 A
+12V-3: 8 A
-5V:1 A
-12V:1.0 A
5Vsb:2.0 A
Price: 128€

Thanks!

No contest. The Powerstream wins by a mile and a half. But if not Powerstream, go for Noisetaker's 600W edition with Dual 12V rails :D

That enermax costs me 12€ more than the OCZ. It has 5A more in the 3'3 line but 6A less in the 5V line (and 3A more in the total of 12V line).
Is it worth?

And another question, how should I know if the psu is compatible with the "4V jumper" of the DFI?

I would go in order from the best as this:

Pc power and cooling
OCZ Powerstream
Enermax
Antec

the thermaltake 680w is quite good. most people are assuming its like tt's other psu's which are crappy. i say thermaltake, cause its cheaper, and it has rave reviews, as well as a strong 12v rail

OCZ always better than Thermaltake :)
