OCZ GameXstream 700w

Conclusion

The GameXstream 700w is a pretty good power supply and its certainly heads above its 1010w counterpart. Its got stable rails, it looks good and its pricing isn’t too bad either. However, down sides such as quite loose 12v rails and a slight whining noise during operation arn’t something to be ignored. Neither is its lack of 4 PCI-E cables for 8800GTX SLI owners. All in all it’s a good unit which would please many, but its far from perfect and you should check it forfills what you want in a power supply before splashing out your hard earned pounds.

Pros Cons
Stable rails 12v rail isn’t that tight
Looks good, braided cables etc Slight whining noise
Quick release molex Lacks 2 extra PCI-E 6pins

I’d like to thank our sponsors OCZ for providing us with this PSU.
