I looked for some quality PSU at, let's say ok prices. What do you guys think of these:
The Ultra PSU (has 34A on the 12V)

Enermax PSU (heard before that this was a good company. About 36A on the 12V)

What do you guys think? I want to get a good quality PSU so as I upgrade I wont have to worry about it. I might have a look at the Antec PSUs. Any comments or sugguestions? Thanks
 
I looked over some of the Enermax PSUs:
The Enermax Noisetaker 370W has 36A 12V, 27A 3.3V and 5V.
The Enermax Noisetaker 485W has the same Amps 12V, but higher Amps on the 3.3V and 5V, same with the Enermax FMA 535W.
Is it worth paying more for the 485 or 535 if the Amps 12V are the same as 370W?

Noisetaker 370W:

FMA 535W:

This PSU is king.... (Well, after the PC Power & Cooling 1000w PSUs)

Its basicly the US equivalent of my PSU... 55A on the 12v.... :P

Damn, its gone down by £15 since I bought it....

Anyway, back to the question.. Its better to have more watts, even though they dont matter too much... Your not going to run A P4 EE with 5 HDDs and Dual 7900GTXs on a 370W PSU... No matter what the Amps.

Well it's better than what I have now, lol. I'll save up the money and get the 535W it's like 20$ more than the 460W at a local computer store I have here, so I think the 535W is more worth it, because if I upgrade alot, this PSU will hold for a long time. Thanks for the replies.
