Enermax PSUs are nice, but I would never go with a BeQuiet.
Just so you know, Be Quiet! is good.

I have to second that. Seasonic is great. I have one in my case and wasn't afraid of going with a 520W only leaving myself around 190W of overhead to work with. I wouldn't have gone so small with any other brad. Couldn't bring myself to feel comfortable doing so.
I am in no way saying that Seasonic is bad, I'm just sick of the narrow minded aspect people have on the PSU market. Companies that are not Seasonic ALSO make good PSUs. Just get a review of 3dGuru and see if the PSU is well rated, because they do know. More then you and I about it. Also to the guy who has never built a computer so far, what would you know about reliability? You are simply stating what has been said to you, get some experience then tell me about PC components. Every brand has RMA's, and screw ups. Im not going to recommend something thats going to blow a pc up.
Side Note: I aprreciate Vortex88 opinion on almost everything because he seems well educated on matters he actually brings up to people. I agree that those are the most fail safe PSU manufacturers. (But BeQuiet is very good)
me?
been researching components for several hours a day, just about every day, for about 5 months....
and notice that I do not often say 'stay away from this brand'. I usually just reccomend what others have to me. besides whch, my reasoning for telling people to stay away from ocz is NOT due to anything related to their products, only the status of their buisness. if you don't like it, too bad.
OCZ will probably not ever go out of buisness. They are much to valuable as a brand and company to go under. They most likely will get assimilatted by another big brand. Could even get better replacement stuff out of the deal. Last time I heard they were selling almost 2x more SSD's compared to all the other companies combined.
Research is good for personal growth, but baising other opinions off it is just silly. Link the article and let them learn what you have learned.
