Well its a good thing there's more than one major importer for Australia. Oh wait. No there isn't. I guess we'll go with what we're given.DeathUnlimited wrote:

Yeah, I'm kinda wondering whether or not to go ahead.Cheez wrote:

Just remember Panda, MSY has fuck all in stock. Keep an open mind on what you want.
I'd recommend ToughPower myself.

One last question - there's a gap at the top of my PSU and the case (about 1 cm). Does it matter if the new PSU has the fan at the top or the bottom?DeathUnlimited wrote:
That Toughpower 600W is the best out of the lot, but also $150. CM Realpower 550W would do it too for $120.
I know ToPowers are the cheaper line of brands and thus not preferred by gamers. That does not change the fact they are good too, but indeed they are not as futureproof.

PSU fan faces down, it does matter.some_random_panda wrote:

Right. So does that mean I might have to mount it so that the sticker is upside down? (the fan on the toughpower is on top)Defiance wrote:

Edit: Let me rephrase that, to be more general. PSU faces towards the motherboard.
no, the fan faces down.some_random_panda wrote:

I don't think the sticker's location matters. As long as the mounting screws fit and the cables aren't interfered with, flip it whichever way you have to so the fan is in the right spot.some_random_panda wrote:
