Chieftec, OCZ, or?

[Proximon]

I'm looking for something nice in the 700W range. I pretty much want it all, but don't want to spend more than US $160.00.

If a Corsair 750TX or PC P&C would be a lot better than any modular unit I can find, then so be it, I'll skip the modular.

I'm replacing my antique Ultra because it was made when the idea of dual rails was new, and it's getting pretty loud.

Some of the prices have really dropped lately.

Oh, and are there any good units NOT made in China????

Here's the two I was looking at:

Chieftec Turbo 750W

OCZ 700W MXSP

Any opinions or other suggestions?

If you want modular take a look at Corsair HX620 or Antec Signature 650.
Non-modular BFG ES-800 or for $100 you can't beat Corsair TX750.
IMO if you need a 700W PSU you'll be use many cables so a modular PSU is somehow useless.

Thanks for the suggestions

I don't need 700W. I just like to buy way over so that I'm covered for years and/or the day I go crossfire/SLI.

I'll think about the Signature 650... I hadn't realized they were modular.

Semi-modular.
You have here a nice review for his big brother. AFAIK OW is impressed by this Delta.

Thanks Wolf. You know that I'm very happy when I see a 5-600W PSU review.

Incorrect. 99.9% of Newegg's photos are taken by Newegg. Same with TigerDirect.

Maybe I could squeeze out 200 bucks... never seen newegg actually display the inside of a PSU before:

Taiwan is as close as you are going to get.
