abbey Quad...... after we have all told him to go for Neo HE, why are you still breaking your head over it??

Leave it to him naa..... We all warned him before itself not to go for SP500....he didnt listen to us. Now that he has decided on NeoHE and if he still does not listen to us, nothing we can do...... dont take so much trouble to dig up threads and all that :p

1) Is it available at the itdepot?

No

2) What is the price?

Around 7K here in Delhi

3) Isn't Seasonic much better than cooler master

Since, you are talking about quality, may I know how you judge it?

I don't need 600 watts so quality is priority.

I've assembled 19 Cooler Master Power Supplies so far, and I vouch for its quality.

And in the end. i Green 600Watts is a pure quality.

iGreens are Seventeam OEMs so they'll definitely be good in performance. However at high loads, they are supposed to be damn noisy like all seventeams :p.

Well Chaos, I am currently using 450W Cooler Master Power Supply (Real Power 450 RS-450-ACLX), and I can barely hear any noise. Infact, its a plus point I would like to add that these are very silent Power Supplies.

Although, I may like to add that ColorsIT Power Supplies are quite cheap and effective as well.

RS450/550 is made by Enhance AFAIK and not seventeam. The extreme power is seventeam and noisy as well. Brand name means nothing... it all depends on who actually is building the PSU. ColorsIT has crap inside... if you want cheap PSUs, its either the extremepowers or VIP/powersafe that I'd suggest.

I would be extremely grateful to you Chaos, if you explain me about that. And, ColorsIT Power Supply is powering my friend's X1900 CrossFire rig. You may want to talk about with someone on ATI?, Hyderabad itself?

^^All brands like antec/coolermaster/silverstone/thermaltake/ocz don't make their own PSUs. They are made by a third party and these companies only stick their own sticker and do the marketing. These PSUs are built to spec what the marketing company demands. So antec sources its PSUs from either Channelwell or Seasonic, Silverstone from Enhance, the crappy thermaltakes come from deer or powmax (totally avoidable), ocz from FSP or topower etc. Even the PC Power and Cooling which are supposed to be the best in the business are not made by themselves. The PCP&C Silencers are made by seasonic and the higher end ones are made by some other company... (can't rmr:p)

You'll mostly get info from various forums (xs/hard/vr etc). Jonnyguru has excellent psu reviews. So does silentpcreview, pc perspective and extremeoverclocking... Check either of these sites.

Edit: To cut the story of this thread short, NeoHE is the single best PSU u'll get in India... As long as you don't encounter the Asus compatibility issues (some epox boards also had it), you are fine. Shouldn't be an issue since all NeoHEs we've received here are "fixed" versions.

You are kidding me... post the specs of that PSU. X1900 CF would probably just about run on my NeoHE!
