An important tip from one of our users: don't just check total power output, find out what you need in the way of current on each power rail. If you need 20 A on your +12V rails and the supply only has 15A, it doesn't matter how many watts the supply puts out: don't buy it. Make certain that you have ENOUGH rails, too: sometimes, you need more than just two +12V rails for your setup.
Replacing an existing power supply is easier: just get a replacement that meets or exceeds the specifications of the old one. (You can usually find those printed on the side of the supply.)
That said, here's a power supply that is compatible with most ATX format motherboards, puts out an impressive 850 watts of power (see specifications for exact distribution). Could this be your next power supply?

- Pros: Runs everything in my case.
- Cons: Had a 700w and it died, hopefully this one will last longer
What has happened to OCZ?
- Pros: Definitely a good 'looking' PS. Matt black ... goes well with the ANTEC 900 II that it was originally installed in ... nice blue LED fan .... nicely braided connector leads. ... quality connectors ....
- Cons: JUST DOESN'T WORK!!! ... the initial power up load of the PC causes it to power off ... it will sit for a few seconds, then cycle on and off again ..... this on a PC with 1 HD and GPU (ASUS P7P55 / WD 1TB / BFG GT285) .... I ran down to the Big Box store and purchased a Corsiar 850 (I could have gotten it $30 less from Newegg) ......... worked perfect .... swapped the OCZ back in and it started recycling again .... after a bit of web research, I see WAY too many complaints about OCZ over the last year ...... many specifically on their PS's but also on their memory having compatibility issues ....... this surprised me as I always regarded OCZ as one of the 'cream of the crop' in product quality .....
- Other Thoughts: I blame the bad purchase on myself ..... I now see reviews on Newegg that point to the same 'recycling' issue with this PS..... I picked out the core pieces for a new PC build rather quickly and I thought choosing OCZ was a no-brainer ....
Believe the bad Newegg reviews on this PS .... take a look at the bad reviews OCZ products are getting overall ..... Newegg has given us the ability to express our issues with quality .... I didn't take advantage of that .....
As a last thought ..... although I appreciate seeing OEM responses, I don't see any value added to OCZ's responses ... "send it back and we'll send you another one" doesn't give me a warm fuzzy at all ..... I understand people are more apt to complain than give praise, but the sheer number of complaints here are way over the top ......

Decent Products, Great Prices
- Pros: -Very Compact (wattage per cubic inch)
-Note absence of fan on TOP - Many people with cases like mine need this kind of power supply, other ones with the fan designed on top, it is blowing air upward into the case instead of outside, surely shortening the life of the unit
-As with most OCZ products, manufacturer is usually pretty quick to respond to issues without placing blame on the failure, try emailing or calling them before flaming them here, I have a 750W unit from 2 yrs ago running strong still but I am looking at a "backup" PSU on a just-in-case measure and the 750 is no longer available.
- Cons: None at this time
- Other Thoughts: HEAT Kills...
Most people with problems can usually attribute it to physical problems with their systems but will most likely blame the PSU manufacturer, most common is intermittent short circuits or improper heat management, either a connector dangling in the case contacting something, very commonly a hard drive circuit board that has been plugged/unplugged enough times that the actual circuit board of the drive is shorting out when it reaches a certain temp, motherboard mounts, I have seen many problems with certain cases and front USB connectors, some of the bad ones will completely short and reset the system if you plug in a device at just the right angle or speed, load tests show current draw even when there's no device plugged in.
If you're lucky enough to get a DOA congrats, it doesn't happen often and could happen with pretty much any PSU on Newegg
