it works!

Strengths: - it works - exterior finish is nice - decent manual - excellent tech support

Weakness: - blue fan light not defeatable - cables are short

after a year & a half my thermaltake 420watt powersupply melted... and damaged my motherboard/cpu/ram with it. after some research, i found that ocz technology makes some of the better power supplies these days. this was the cheapest, good quality 520watt power supply i could find. i'm not really a big fan of the removable cables, as they are a pain to install. all the cables are sheathed, so...

Power supply

Strengths: Very stable

Weakness: None

24 Pin ATX connector with detachable 4 pin very stable. PSU runs great, plenty of power 2 hard drives, DVD burner, floppy drive. No cable clutter. Modular cables are great. Very satisfied for the price. Bought this to replace the Antec Smart Power 2.0 500W that came with the case that was noisy and had a defect which they knew about and still shipping.

OCZ Technology ModStream 520W ATX AC Power Supply

Strengths: great power output, clean semi-modular design, looks great, comes with 20 or 24 pin ATX connector, quiet,

Weakness: cables are thick making it harder to bend in small places

A stable power supply powering 3700+ (San Diego), MSI K8N Neo4, X850XT, Audigy2 ZS Platinum, 3 HD, DVD Burner and DVD ROM. Quiet 120mm fan with blue LED (for a nice touch up) keeps the unit cool and running at optimum level. Mirror finishing looks nice as well.

OCZ Technology ModStream 520W ATX AC Power Supply

Strengths: Very stable, looks great, modular cables, 24-pin ATX connector with detachable 4-pin

Weakness: Thick cabling make it tough to bend

This PSU has been running great and has provided my 3500+, 6600GT, 4 hard drives, DVD burner, and floppy with plenty of power. It looks great in my windowed case with its blue LED fan. There's no cable clutter with the modular cables but the 24-pin ATX connector is a little tough to bend. It's nice that the 24-pin ATX connector is a combination of 20-pin and 4-pin connectors that attach together...

OCZ Technology ModStream 520W ATX AC Power Supply

Strengths: very very stable, nice blue light, cables are sturdy

Weakness: none so far

I love this psu. Best one I have ever bought and definitely worth the money. It provides stable volts all around, and looks amazing in a window case. The modular cable system (which is all presleeved) is also very cool. Very impressed!!

Great top of the line power-supply!

Strengths: From what I can tell, very well made, very powerful. I have not had any problems regarding the reliability of this power supply at all. OCZ service was extremely polite professional and helpful.

Weakness: Very tight fit in Lian Li PC60 Plus. HOWEVER IT DOES FIT! The instructions are horrible (No pictures, information on cables not specified). SATA cord did not come sleaved.

The OCZ ModStream 520W is a great power supply from my experiences using it. Overall it was a pain to install because the center piece on the power supply's fan kept rubbing against the case while trying to fit it. The titanium finish is too much of a gimick. If the finish on the power supply were flat instead of being polished, I believe it would have slid into the case a lot smoother - instead...

Awesome PSU

Strengths: Very stable, great cable organization, very cool blue ambiant lighting

Weakness: None

This is my first OCZ power supply and I must say that I am very satisfied. The PSU is very well constructed and has enough modular cable to connect every component in my case.

OCZ Technology ModStream 520W ATX AC Power Supply

it is very stable and quiet. The output voltage is very stable, especially +12v. I am glad to use this power supply. Besides, the blue LED fan is beautiful.

OCZ ModStream OCZ-520 12U Power Supply

Modstream is OCZ's their second PSU line in six months. Its raison d'être? Lotsa bling and detachable cables. It has a great fan controller, but the 120mm blue LED fan is not what we're used to hearing from Yate Loon recently.
