I need a namebrand PSU with adjustable pots for ALL the rails, not just the 5v & 12v so I can OC my memory. Fortron/Sparkle TTGI look nice. LMK if you got any info, thanks.
I know this below will work, but looking for stronger rails if possible

If you have no price range, then the PCP&Cooling 510w ATX is the best choice, it already has pre drilled holes on the PSU to change 3.3v 5v 12v rails, cost is I think $190 without shipping.
Or you could get the PCP&C 425W for $135, with the same performance minus the added volts, and no drilled in holes to change pots on the fly.
Or you could buy a Fortron/TTGI/Sparkle 550W for I think $80, that has pots for the 5v and 12v but not 3,3 or something similiar to that.
The Fortron/Sparkle often have 3.3v rail trimpots. The 530w definitely does. Lower wattage Fortron/Sparkle have only 12/5.5 rail trimpots.
The TTGI has 12/5.5 only but is easily modified to add a 3.3 trim.

Beep! Wrong!
All my Fortron PSUs that I had so far (a few 300W, one 350W and one 400W), had a extra pot for the 3.3V-rail!

The 300's and 350's don't, at least they didn't as of the last one I got, a little over a year ago so they might now. Though, I thought Tedinde said the 300's recently from Newegg didn't have the 3.3 pot.Originally posted by celemine1Gig

Good news if the low-end Sparkles, etc have them though!
well I've opened my Fortron FSP350 and I can only change the 5v and 12v, which was a needed bump for my lagging 12v rail. The PSU in my main rig is a Thermaltake 480W Butterfly. It has two pots, but only one seems to change anything (increased the 5v to 5.25 and 12v to 12.2v). The other even with a 270 turn doesn't do a thing
If I can unload this one, my budget would be around $75 or $80. The idea of soldering a resistor or whatnot for a 3.3v mod is to xtreme for me atm
too many 350 and 530. i'm getting dizzy reading these threads!
the 530 is a great psu. quiet and powerful.

All three 300w Fortron models I own
have all three adjustment pots. (3.3v, 5v, and 12v.)
The 80mm and 120mm fan models seem exactly the same
when connected, just the internal configuration is different
to accommodate the fan locals.
If I'm not mistaken the 530w Fortron also has the
single pot for the 5/12v rails.

Can you please say which one of the Fortron 350s you have had which did or did not have adjustable 3,3v. I'll get a FSP350 60PN in a couple of weeks and wonder if it has it. If not I need to mod it, cause I'll need some voltage to the KHX3000 I'll get.
To be perfectly honest, I could be mistaken about the 3.3v potOriginally posted by DisposableHero
TTGI dont have a 3.3v pot
on the fsp400. And now I can't check for I sold it to a friend
in need a few months back.
Was going by memory of what I read in another thread where
they said the 3.3v pot was extremely hard to get to.
My mistake for speaking when I wasn't 100% sure.
Sorry if I led anyone astray.
Where inside the Thermaltake are the pots located? Maybe its just the Butterfly because I didn't see anything when I cracked open my 480 SilentPurepower.
