Either one will do just fine - they're both excellent units.

Read the review. It got a "jonnyGURU Recommended" and scored 9 and over in ever category other than "Value" because it's expensive. But it was a "GT" I reviewed, and part of that price tag is for the software.

Of course, the one I reviewed is only the 550W unit, but IIRC the 800W is still a quality unit, just of greater capability.

Personally, I think that the Odin Pro 800W is one of the best price / performance PSUs on the market right now. It is just too bad that so few places here in Canada keep them in stock.

unfortunately odin 800 pro only hav 5 molex connector. kinda few for a big wattage psu...:wall:any idea? :fire:

Will you have a need for more than 5 molex? If so, altough not optimal, there are Y-cables.
