Under the OCZ Technology Group, PC Power & Cooling products will gain the exposure of the established OCZ global channel, maximizing the availability of the reputable line to customers everywhere.

Will OCZ be utilizing the PCP&C storefront here in CA with other products avail to purchase? PCP&C is literally 15 mins away from me!

Forgive me if I seem Anal retentive about this but a long and happy history with PCP&C makes me want to make sure that line of wonderful (abeit sometimes loud) history continues

Wow this is great news! I don't think anyone could do a better job of taking care of PowerPC & Cooling and their products than OCZ.

Woohooo!

Sorry if I sound like an OCZ fan. Because I am :D

Zippy is excellent, Enermax is what I consider middle of the road and I've never owned Silverstone but hear good things about them.
Also just my opinion:D

I am not too excited just yet. Companies focus on profit, cheaper product
with a higher margin of profit. OCZ was not the epitomy of high quality PSU's,
there was no debate to begin with, PCP&C always won hands down(ok that's subjective but when we're talking about the highest quality product at least).

OCZ is more of a marketing hype brand, using marketing hype antics and
slogans. I just hope the quality of PCP&C does not go down while the high
prices maintain.

I wish all you guys would read what i post, and please read the official PR

For me silence is as important as performance, so I'm hoping we will see PC P+C become OCZ's extra premium brand, with no compromise build quality on a range of units from silent psu's for single card systems, to the crazy overspecced beasts they already turn out.

Would it be reasonable to ask that today is OCZ's day to crow and a little class here would help.
It's a smart move and they made it.Let them at least enjoy the damned day without being slammed.
My Father used to say " If you don't have anything nice to say, maybe you should just say nothing"
Company makes a great move and people want to pick them apart like a bunch of bored old ladies telling stories about the neighbors..
At least give them the chance to show you what they are going to do before you condemn them out of hand!

noone here has been "slamming" OCz. We know that for the most part they make top tiered products, and everyone is just saying that their new acquisition pretty much puts them at the absolute top without a doubt. Even their "lowend" stuff is better than the garbage in pretty much every OEM PC.

yes, our standards are high but it's not like we're slamming OCz.

I have a fridge magnet that says "be nice or leave":p:

but i would really like to see what comes out of this, i have been turned away from OCZ psu's because the quality just wasnt there for me, but now i have a better choice of psu's coming from them. but all of the other ocz products are top notch in my book, this seemed to be the only place they were lacking very much. :D I usually like to go by jonny's psu reviews, he does a much better job then most other websites and goes in depth with every single review, he has the experience and i would like to learn from that experience.

So, I suppose PCP&C will still source their power supplies from Seasonic and Win-Tact, then, since the Silencers are currrently built by Seasonic and the Turbo-Cools are built by Win-Tact.
