Was just looking around still researching for a new PSU when I stumbled across the MSI Turbostream 600W (not the gaming edition :p)

I looked everywhere for reviews on this PSU and I can't find one anywhere. This PSU sounds really promising, a helluva lotta power for only $69! Did I mention it's 80%+ efficiency with an active PFC?

480W of power on the 12v rails alone! (22amps max on each.)

What do you guys think? Could it be the real deal? Anyone seen any reviews or have personally tested it? Jonny... tetetetessssst oneeee ;)

MSI....hmmmm...usually SOlytech IIRC. But I don't think Solytech has an 80+ unit listed.........

Yeah I it looks like other than the 80+ it *may* be the Solytech SL-8600EPS ........ but I could be wrong.

Edit: Looking back at it I don't see it saying it is 80+ certified just that it hits 80% efficency......which the Solytech unit also says.........at 25c

It's Solytech, which is in turn Deer.

I'd trust it.
