OCZ Modxstream 600W is Kaput - What to Replace With

Kintarō Hattori

Hey Folks,

I've tested and my PSU, which I was rather happy with is dead as a doornail so I need to replace it with something. It was semi modular which was handy and had a whopping 135mm fan which helped keep the noise down.
Ideally I'd like to try and find something locally in Dublin as the missus is hounding me each day to get it replaced but is there anywhere in and around Dublin city centre that sells decent PSU's at a not outrageous price?

Worst comes to worst I'll order from Amazon- any opinions on the below or recommendations for something better? Budget would be in and around €120 including shipping.

Many thanks.



Edit - I should add and I'm showing how long it's been since I've kept up with this but my motherboard has an 8pin power connector rather than the older 4pin style, does the above PSU carry that? It's somewhat unclear on the Corsair website.

I just bought an EVGA 750W Supernova G2 on Amazon. I was originally going to go for the 650W but it seems to be sold out everywhere. Both of these seem to have fantastic reviews everywhere I have seen. No matter what you go for though, I'd check to see if there is a review on http://www.jonnyguru.com/ for it as they seem to be the most comprehensive for PSU testing.

Went with the EVGA below as the Corsair had a poor review on the linked site. The EVGA seems to have pretty stellar reviews on the web so hopefully it's well worth it.
