A poll asking what their favorite brand of PSU is. The current standings:

1. Corsair (22)
2. SeaSonic (17)
3. Antec (10)
4. Enermax (6)
5. CoolerMaster (4)


The Corsair result wasn't surprising at all, though for a while SeaSonic was beating it. I expected SeaSonic to be a little lower, but still in the top 5. Antec is about as expected, as is Enermax. CoolerMaster is probably on there due to brand loyalty from people who don't know any better, since 90% of their stuff is junk.

PC Power has only one vote, finally people have realized that this brand is dead. OCZ is lower than I was expecting, I was expecting it to take spots #4 or #5. Silverstone and Thermaltake are both rather low on votes, I guess people just prefer Corsair/SeaSonic.


Sorry Jonny, but BFG is the only option that doesn't have a single vote. I recommend aborting the GS series, disassociating yourself from Best Buy, promoting the hell out of your current stock and letting it go for cheap to get a "bang for buck" reputation, and starting a new lineup.

Hey, I'm just saying, this is like a litmus test of the enthusiast market's view of PSU brands.
