Hey, my first post here! I'm thinking of buying a p180 however I've heard problems with the cables not reaching things like optical drives, due to the PSU being at bottom. What I really would like to know is which of these PSU's to get, and will all of them avoid that problem above ^ ? Going for: - OCZ Modstream 520W, - Antec TruePower 2 550W, - Tagan TG530-U15 530W Easycon. I'm new to building systems so any help would be great! Thanks.
While any of those units would work, if the OCZ Modstream is anything like the 450 I have, the cables are kinda short and a bit on the tough side. You also might factor in an Enermax EG565 as well.
wat bout antec neo he. ive got one and its really good. *off topic* B, this psu i have gets pretty hot after about 5-10 mins and stays at that temperature, not any cooler and not any hotter, the fan is still quiet but is this by design or is there an unlikely chance of it being fu*ked up. i doubt it is faulty becoz i purchased a type r and it was even hotter than this so i guess it is by design.
