Reasonable good quality PSU around 750w for under £100?

[hig_gins]

any suggestions people?

Tom said in another PSU thread there are some good reasonably priced Mushkin ones comming soon so if you can wait, check those out.

I had a quick look and found this one LINK it's Corsair so it should be good.

Modular? The HX750 is very good.

Under 100, the TX750 like SieB said, just a smidgen over 100 but modular the HX750 like ciksas said. In my opinion modular is worth it, especially if you have a lot less components than what the connectors on the TX750 provide for.

EDIT: Reason: Your computer not only looks a lot tidier but it will in general improve airflow if like I said you don't need to wire up too many things.

This one is 80 silver

, buy right now!

 

[hig_gins]

haha is it modular tho? What does the silver bit mean, just half decent standard? I thought for £80 not bad for decent psu?

 

[BigIan88]

the colours represent efficiency

 

[yuri04]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/80_PLUS it's a measure of efficiency

I think the joule series are modular, can’t say for sure, might wanna ask tom.

Can't answer that to be fair. They really haven't been around long enough.

However, I smell some testing in the air and if it's anything like Jimbo's testing of previous psus, they'll be put through their paces for sure.

Longevity would be the big question for me, along with who actually makes them.

Corsair is always a banker.

You can/could get modular and regular types of Joule and Volta psus from Mushkin. Volta are the "value" type, "Joule" are performance. Prices I have to say are very very reasonable for both.

But, if there's reviews coming, who's to say they aren't bringing something else out !?!?

Joule series are modular.
