The OCZ 520w worth the extra $25 over the 420w?

[Revv23]

the only major differences i can see are 10a on the 5.0v rail (30 on the 420, 40a on the 520w) and 3a on the 12v (30a on 420, 33a on 520w.)

that being said, what rig really takes up even close to 30a on the 5.0v rail?

and is the 3amps on the 12v important? i want to be future proof, but im not sure if the extra 3 amps is really a big deal.

[Squid_Spit]

I say its worth it.

[MRBIGSHOT]

10amps is a huge amount on a 12v rail. i say its worth 25 easy

[Revv23]

thats cool because its only 3amps on 12v, 10 amps on 5v...like i said.which what really powered by the 5v rail anyways?

[muaddib]

Absolutely worth it.

You might consider going for the 600W which has 20+18 amps on the 12V. $25 is not much, so I'd go for the 520W

The OCZ Powerstream 520w is a much more capable PSU then the 600w.

Yes, get the OCZ PowerStream 520W :toast:
