PSU matters.. Odin 550 Pro versus ST56F versus ST50F-230/ST50F

hi guys..

i may be redundant ani akong thread.. but nag labad akong ulo pag pili ani nga mga PSU

1. Odin Pro 550 - an uber kampfer a$$ PSU with a true 80+ efficiency @ 5400 php SRP
2. ST56F - crossfire ready.. and much better internals than the ST50F @ 4480 PHP
3. ST50F-230 - fully sleaved and modular... and much better internals than ST50F@ 3850
4. ST50F - the cheapest..and many great satisfied users dire sa istorya... i look at the internals.. murag generic tanawun @3500

im using a E8400/EP45-UD3L/4gig 1066 ddr2/GPU is another labad sa ulo
because my cr@ppy Zumax 550 is @!#%@%#@@$^ frustrating kaayu ang dili ka gamit ug high end GPU tungod ani.

unsa inyu ma suggest nga PSU ani akong selection

your comments will determine my craziness to buy any of these PSU i mention
i will appreciate it

biased ko, go for Gigabyte Odin :P

yet any of those silverstones are great

depende nimo, its the budgett!

try to check daw ang amps sa 12V rail daw. Maybe it can help you decide on what PSU to buy...

[limes]

@bofox44 mao ni ang dapat sad nimo tan.awon bro and if mag overclock ba ka. better if dako imo total amp rating sa 12v para dili bunog imo psu sa imong gpu na ibutang. 100amps sa 12v is enough para di ma stress imong psu nya dapat true rated.

sa imong mga gi pilian dira sa taas i would go for the odin pro. is that sli or corssfire certified? ang would you do a crossfire or sli setup?

[cointoss]

Take advantage of the 4rail 12V. go for ODIN pro

[clevin]

it's also your budget that matters. hehehe... i'll go for ODIN pro!

[dexlimp]

go for ODIN

ST50F-230 anf pinaka bang for the buck dnha. i'm not very fond of gigabyte PSUs and CPU coolers, based on what i have read from xs. also overpriced ra cya diri sa pinas. this coming from a former st56f user, which is a very good PSU btw, dili lng modular hehe

if you are willing to spend 5.4k on an odin 550w pro, mas maayo pa palit nlng kag corsair hx520 for the same or slightly cheaper price, layo ra kaayo na silag quality

[ashrock]

for me, i'll go for the ST56F..
My reasons:
performance..they're at par with each other
Efficiency..they're both 80plus certified
Quad rail @ 18amps vs. Dual rail @ 20amps (my vote for the dual rail @ 20amps)
pricewise..for ST56F
modular vs. non-modular (odin has my vote on this)
warranty: FU known for better warranty service, gigabyte sucks...
just my 2 cents.. it's still the TS's choice anyway..

sa mga PSU nga ki mention..unsa ang nindot amperage sa 12 rail ... all i know ra sa 12v rails is that it gives power sa Mobo components. limited man gud akong electrical "know-how-what"

Im after security sa kong mga components .....
budget can be arrange by my "hot s3xy financial adviser" joke

but kung asa ang mas quality and barato.... adto gyud ko

im not a fan of dual/quad GPU set up... single card config ra ako but i want to have the convenience of choosing any GPU from small end to uber high end...

daghan nag ingun nako ug Odin pro daw kay true to their word ang gigabyte mu advertise sa ilang specs. but Silverstone is also a good PSU and the cost performance ratio is great.

btw.... bati diay ang warranty service sa gigabyte?
